5:44 pm
i knew that meant i was at a greater risk of stroke. i needed answers. my doctor and i chose xarelto® to help keep me protected from a stroke. once-daily xarelto®, a latest-generation blood thinner significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. warfarin interferes with at least 6 of your body's natural blood-clotting factors. xarelto® is selective, targeting just one critical factor. for afib patients well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® compares in reducing the risk of stroke. don't stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of stroke. while taking, you may bruise more easily, or take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. it may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. get help right away for unexpected bleeding or unusual bruising. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. before starting, tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures and any kidney or liver problems. learn all you can to help protect yourself from a stroke.

her sister said that she was fixated on robin williams' death. what do we know about suicide, and especially these people who ige just these high-wattage taars, super creative, and then their death by suicide just catches us all by surprise? >> yeah. it's somewhat perilous, i think, to try to connect these two. ct for all of these cases, there's often different motives. we may not always know exactly e at's happening to the person. s have to be careful, i think, neen sort of looking at one case and trying to say, "well, how do ot apply this to, you know, other circumstances?" >> ninan: and yet these people all suffer in silence. >> that's true. we certainly can see how no r tter your walk of life or your stature that people can be at risk. >>: titely, david, whybodoope oe will get from it? >> i just thought that robin was an unforgettable character and genius, and i hope people gain an appreciation for the breadth of his accomplishment and really why his life and his work were
