Ko Donelle Trotman, he matua e rua nga tamariki i roto i ona toru tekau mai i Staten Island o New York, he raupapa o nga whakamatautau na nga taote kaore i taea te mohio ki ona tohu ngaro - te nui o te taumaha i arotahi ki tona tinana o runga anake, tae atu ki nga raru kiri me te ngenge kino - engari he kaiwhakaako hauora nana i whakatau te patai i te wa i kite ia i nga tohu tuuturu rereke i runga i ona ringa. Ko te waimarie ki a Mr Trotman, nana nei i korero ki a Today kaore ia i 'ngaro', engari kaore ano kia 'ngaro' i mua i te mate, i angitu te pokanga ki te tango i te papatipu, a ko nga taakuta e tumanako ana kia tino ora ia i roto i te tau. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. Te hurihanga: Ko Donelle Trotman, i whakaahuatia (maui) i mua i tana whiwhi ohorere i te 150 pauna me (matau) i a ia inaianei, i kitea he mate a Cushing, he ahua onge o te pukupuku roro e mate ana ki te kore e maimoatia i te wa tika. I tīmata a Mr Trotman ki te whakanui i te taumaha i te toru tau ki muri. He 180 pauna tōna taumaha i te 18 o ōna tau, engari i muri i te pānga o tōna mate, ka piki ia ki te 366 pauna. Ko te mate o Cushing e pā ana ki tētahi pukupuku i runga i te pituitary gland, kei te turanga o te roro. Ka whakaoho i te nui o te cortisol steroid kia tukuna ki te tinana. Ko nga tohu ko te momona o te tinana o runga, he mata kua pupuhi, he pungawerewere, he kiri kiri me nga tohu puru. Ki te kore e rongoatia, ka mate pea te mate o Cushing, engari he pai te matenga mēnā ka tangohia te tipu i te wa tika. He iti iho i te 50,000 te hunga e pangia ana e te mate i te U.S. ia tau. 'Kua takirua ahau, rite, kua whiwhi ahau i te tangata katoa i runga i ahau,' ka mea ia. 'He wāhi motuhake noa iho; ko toku kopu, i raro i oku ringa, ko te tuara o toku kaki, ko toku mata, ko te raro o toku tuara. 'Kua roa au e noho ana i runga i ōku waewae.' Ahakoa te oma me te hiki taumaha, i haere tonu tana whakatipu, a, i muri tata iho ka tino ngenge ia i nga wa katoa, ahakoa ko te kau, ka kore ia e manawapa. Kaore a Mr Trotman i mohio, ko te pukupuku i runga i tana pituitary gland...
Ko Donelle Trotman, he matua tokorua nō Staten Island o New York, i kite i tōna taumaha e rua ki te 336 pauna i roto i te tau kotahi. Kāore i taea e te mahi auau te āwhina i a ia ki te huri i te pauna. I muri i te raupapa whakamātautau i whakararu ai i ngā tākuta, ka kitea e tētahi kaimahi hauora he tohu rākau i runga i ōna ringa, he tohu o te mate o Cushing. Ko te momo pukupuku roro onge e whakaoho ana i te tukunga o te nui o te taumaha-whakawhiwhi steroids. I whakahaeretia a Mr Trotman ki te tango i te papatipu, ā, e ai ki ngā tākuta ka ora katoa ia i roto i te tau kotahi.
