An active-duty soldier who was hit by a stray bullet outside the White House plans to sue the Secret Service over the severe injuries he suffered. Twenty-five-year-old Benjamin Del Real Jr. was vacationing with his family when they saw a gunman fire several rounds at a Secret Service post. He said agents responded with a hail of gunfire, killing the man and also wounding him in the stomach. He lost part of his digestive system and now faces a third surgery. Authorities have not said whether the bullet that hit him was fired by Secret Service or the shooter. Del Real is seeking $25 million.

Many people will experience a serious injury or medical condition at some point in their lives. Experts say recovery involves more than just physical healing. The mental challenges can be just as significant, especially when a diagnosis or a major setback disrupts someone’s daily routines and shakes their sense of identity. Athletes offer unique insights into this process. Their experiences reveal what it takes to rebuild strength and adjust emotionally when a career, a relationship or another part of life doesn’t unfold as planned. Sports psychologists and former competitive athletes emphasize recognizing physical limits, grieving losses, and adapting to new challenges.

With far more dead than living people taken from the rubble a week after Venezuela’s devastating twin earthquakes, doctors say the biggest dangers now facing survivors were untreated wounds and infectious diseases. Because of the destruction of clean water infrastructure and dismal sanitary conditions among the thousands of displaced Venezuelans sleeping in crowded shelters or out in the open, aid workers said that the earthquakes that struck last Wednesday remained a major medical crisis that, unless quickly controlled, would take more lives in the days and weeks ahead. Even as the window of opportunity narrowed in the search for survivors trapped under the rubble, expert teams from more than two dozen countries pressed on Wednesday with rescue operations.
