Sir Rod Stewart had to unfortunately cancel his monumental 200th show at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas due to a nasty strep throat infection.The raspy-voiced rocker, aged 79, was all geared up to mark the end of his The Hits residency on Wednesday (August 7), a gig he's heartily delivered over 13 years in Vegas.

But a sorrowful Sir Rod pulled out mere hours before what would have been an epic final curtain call at The Colosseum, saying, "desperately sorry".

In a statement revealing the tough decision, he shared, "Most people can work with strep throat but obviously not me." "I'm absolutely gutted.

I've been looking forward to this concert for so long." Conveying his disappointment, he apologised: "My deepest regrets for any inconvenience this has caused.Thankfully we'll now be returning in 2025 and I hope to see you all there." NHS experts say strep throat can trigger symptoms including a sore throat, rash, nausea, vomiting and muscle pain, but it's typically not serious and is treatable with antibiotics, reports the Mirror.

Peer Support, Positive Mindset Predict Resilience in ADHD Teens: Study
August 28, 2024Peer acceptance, a sense of self-efficacy, and a stress-is-enhancing mindset are strong predictors of resilience in older teens with ADHD, according to a small longitudinal study published in Child Psychiatry & Human Development.1The study, which followed 113 adolescents with ADHD from 10th to 12th grade, found that higher levels of peer acceptance, self-efficacy, and a growth mindset in 10th or 11th grade predicted higher levels of resilience 1.5 to 2 years later.Participants from the present study were assessed at three points:Peer acceptance at the start of the study explained 24% of the variance in resilience at follow-up. Teens with less severe ADHD symptoms were significantly more likely to report feelings of peer acceptance.Resilience was measured using the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), which asked teens to measure their agreement with statements such as “I tend to bounce back quickly after hard times” and “I take a long time to get over setbacks in my life.”Self-efficacy mediated the relationship between peer acceptance and resilience, accounting for 39% of the variance in resilience at follow-up.“Greater self-efficacy has been associated with positive outcomes for children and adolescents with ADHD, including lower levels of depression and internalizing symptoms, and reported higher quality of life,” wrote Elizabeth Chan, lead author of the study.Though ADHD symptom severity did not change the positive effect of self-efficacy on resilience, existing research shows that ADHD symptoms can negatively impact self-esteem.A stress-is-enhancing mindset accounted for 31% of the variance in resilience.
