Doctor describes removing 51-pound tumor from a New Jersey woman and says it was a third of her weight
"Imagine slicing into an onion — and then removing a third of the vegetable without damaging the healthy inner layers and core.
That, in essence, is the medical marvel that Dr. David Dupree and his team at Riverview Medical Center in Red Bank, N.J., pulled off last month when they removed a 51-pound tumor from a dying woman.
“Before the operation, the doctor told me there was a mass there and that it was very big,” Evelyn, the patient who asked to be identified only by her first name, told The Daily News. “When I saw it, I was like, ‘Oh my God, it’s huge.”
Dupree the tumor “was about a third of her body weight” and took five hours to remove. “One wrong move and she would have died,” he said.
In his first extensive interview since performing the surgical feat, Dupree said the woman — a 65-year-old mother of two from Union Beach, N.J. — has made a remarkable recovery."

Full-Body Scan Technology Deployed In Street-Roving Vans
"American Science & Engineering, a company based in Billerica, Massachusetts, has sold U.S. and foreign government agencies more than 500 backscatter x-ray scanners mounted in vans that can be driven past neighboring vehicles to see their contents, Joe Reiss, a vice president of marketing at the company told me in an interview. While the biggest buyer of AS&E’s machines over the last seven years has been the Department of Defense operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, Reiss says law enforcement agencies have also deployed the vans to search for vehicle-based bombs in the U.S.

Don’t Should on Yourself
Don’t Should on Yourself
Is expectation keeping you from living your most authentic life?
Our upbringing, the media, our friends, and our selves are all constantly pressuring us for more, better, or different.
“By now, I should ________.”
Many of my patients finish that sentence with:
- be married
- have more money
- have children
- be happy
- have better work
- be having fun
- be on vacation
- be retired
- own a home
- have no debt
- feel better
