New Jersey Health News Site Lauds 2019's "Jersey-est" Stories

JERSEY CITY, N.J. - Jan. 2, 2020 - PRLog -- Your HHRS News, online home of New Jersey health, medical, fitness, and nutrition news and events, kicks off its seventh year by paying tribute to its "Jersey-est" stories of 2019.

"Our Man of the Year is Kevin 'Silent Bob' Smith of Dogma and Clerks fame," explains editor Adrienne Collier. He was almost as famous for his girth for as his comedic work. But when he got hit with a 'widowmaker' heart attack, he joined his daughter in going vegan, joined Weight Watchers as an advocate, and lost fifty pounds!"

But you don't have to be an established celebrity to qualify for a "Jersey-est" honor. The Woman of the Year for 2019 is Victoria Caetano, a high school senior in Rumson who runs track and cross-country, works part-time, and plans to become a neurosurgeon -- all while managing a spina bifida tumor that periodically requires...well, neurosurgery.

And what's a New Jersey web site without a rock-and-roll attitude? Honorable mention goes to Phil Barbetta of the band Corevalay and John "Turbo" Shateksy of Rock Against Dystrophy and Bullspike Radio, who teamed up to promote #RockYourDisability: they're both wheelchair users. And the debut of the band Aurin includes a song and video about the effects of the suicide of the brother of their guitarist. You'll also find out about everything from wind farms to vasectomies to an 8,000-mile cancer consultation at https://yourhhrsnews.com/review-2019.

"I'm as grateful as I am excited to be starting the site's seventh year," says Ms. Collier. "But it's called YOUR HHRS News for a reason: it depends on the news, information, and promotions that I receive from you. Don't hesitate to go to https://yourhhrsnews.com/contact/  if I might be of help!"
