Daylight Saving Kids Health
SUMMARY: Daylight Saving begins tomorrow, potentially disrupting sleep schedules and health, especially for children and pets. Dr. Don Alvarez suggests that younger kids may struggle more with the time change due to sleep cycle disruptions, leading to irritability and concentration issues. To ease the transition, parents should begin adjusting bedtimes and nap times 4-5 days before the change, moving sleep routines gradually by 15-minute increments. Post time change, shifting bedtimes earlier by 30 minutes for the following week can help. Additionally, exposure to natural daylight supports circadian rhythms and can aid in adjustment.

Daylight Saving time can have a major effect on the body when it comes to getting adjusted to the time change. Dr. Adan Alvarez joins us on the best ways to deal with time change and how to adjust to new times.

Abbott issues executive order to arrest CCP operatives in Texas | Texas
SUMMARY: Texas Governor Greg Abbott issued an executive order to combat harassment and coercion by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) against Chinese dissidents in Texas. The order directs the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) to arrest individuals involved in CCP influence operations, including “Operation Fox Hunt,” which aims to forcibly return dissidents to China. Abbott emphasized that Texas will not tolerate such actions against its 250,000 residents of Chinese descent. The order comes as the legislature prepares to discuss national security issues and follows recent FBI charges against CCP-linked individuals. DPS will also establish reporting channels for suspicious activities related to foreign coercion.

Anesthesiologist poisoned IV bags, killing people, to make Dallas hospital look bad
SUMMARY: Sentencing for former doctor Raldo Ortiz is set to occur today at the Cabell Federal Building, following previous delays. Ortiz faces a maximum of 190 years in prison for injecting dangerous drugs into IV bags, leading to 11 patients suffering cardiac emergencies in 2022. Surveillance footage showed him mishandling the drug bags at a North Dallas Surgical Center. Among the victims, Dr. Melanie Casbar died after taking a tainted IV bag home, and 18-year-old Jack Alstein nearly died on the operating table. Ortiz was convicted in April on multiple charges of tampering with a consumer product causing severe injury.
A former doctor who was convicted to tampering with IV bags is set to be sentenced today at the Federal Courthouse in Dallas.
