BOSTON – Kristen Hanson remembers the phone call she received on May 13, 2014. It was an emergency medical technician who told her that her husband, J.J., who had appeared completely healthy when he left for work, had suffered a seizure and couldn't speak. But nurses couldn't find anything wrong.
After hours of tests during which she pushed for an MRI scan, doctors found the life-altering cause of the grand mal seizure: two lesions in J.J.'s brain that were diagnosed as an inoperable, aggressive form of cancer. Doctors told the upstate New York couple that he had just four months to live.
BOSTON (AP) — Lawyers for Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev are heading to court to urge a judge to grant him a new trial.
Judge George O'Toole Jr. is scheduled to hear arguments Tuesday in U.S. District Court, but only on the portion of Tsarnaev's motion related to a U.S. Supreme Court ruling issued after Tsarnaev's trial.
