When we come back, the hollywood icon who would have turned 90 today. Why the mystique of marilyn still lives on. On. I had so many thoughts once i left the hospital after a dvt blood clot. What about my wife. What were building together. And could this happen again . I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . I spoke to my doctor and she told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots. But eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless you doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made switching to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. Nobodys hurt, but there will still be pain.

Whether square cut or pear shape ed diamonds are a girls best friend reporter Marilyn Monroe played the dumb blond so well, a lot of people thought it was who she was. I always say a kiss on the hand might feel very good, but a diamond tiara lasts forever. Reporter fans went to the hollywood walk of fame to what would which raises the question why, why does she endure. In part perhaps she perfectly represents the conflicting attitudes about women and sex in the 1950s. Sometimes bold and brassy, sometimes sweet and vulnerable. Perhaps, too, because while shes been copied and parodied over the years, she has never been matched. Born in 1926, she grew up with foster families, wedding for the first time at 16. Married to dimaggio and later playwright arthur miller. In 1962 at age 36 she made one of her most famous personal appearances. Happy birthday, mr. President reporter her vulnerability not an act.
