Open Question: Friday's in Hell......?
One day a guy dies and finds himself in hell. As he is wallowing in despair, he has his first meeting with the devil ...
Satan: 'Why so glum?'
Guy: 'What do you think? I'm in hell!'
Satan: 'Hell's not so bad. We actually have a lot of fun down here. You a drinking man?'
Guy: 'Sure, I love to drink.'
Satan: 'Well, you're gonna love Mondays then. On Mondays, that's all we do is drink. Whiskey, tequila, Guinness, wine coolers, Tab and Fresca. We drink 'til we throw up and then we drink some more! And you don't have to worry about getting a hangover, because you're dead anyway.'
Guy: 'Gee that sounds great!'
Satan: 'You a smoker?'
Guy: 'You better believe it'
Satan: 'All right! You're gonna love Tuesdays. We get the finest cigars from all over the world and smoke our lungs out. If you get cancer - no biggie, you're already dead, remember?'
Guy: 'Wow ... that's awesome!'
Satan: 'I bet you like to gamble.'
Guy: 'Why, yes, as a matter of fact I do.'
Satan: 'Good, 'cause Wednesdays you can gamble all you want. Craps, blackjack, roulette, poker, slots, whatever. If you go bankrupt, it doesn't matter, you're dead anyhow.'
Guy: 'Cool!'
Satan: 'What about drugs?'
Guy: 'Are you kidding? Love drugs! You don't mean ...?'
Satan: 'That's right! Thursday is drug day. Help yourself to a great big bowl of crack or smack. Smoke a doobie the size of a submarine. You can do all the drugs you want. You're dead so who cares.'
Guy: 'Wow! I never realized Hell was such a cool place!'
Satan: 'You gay?'
Guy: 'No...'
Satan: 'Oooo, Fridays are gonna be tough ...
moreOpen Question: Anyone smart figure out that Palin (like Bush) works for Big Oil?
Does anyone realize these 5 simple facts (that can be looked up and verified easily)
1. Bush deregulated the oil industry causing speculator to drive up the price (anyone reading this should check when the price of gas started to dramatically rise, which was in year 2000)
2. Corporations like Exxon (among others) have the ability to lower gas prices by dispensing some of their reserves on the market (not the US reserves, but their own). They won't do this because they would make less money as the price of gas would drop. Most of the oil they get from US territory is EXPORTED to other markets.
3. Big oil only wants to drill in Alaska (among other places) so that they can remain oil companies well into the next century. They need to do this by getting jurisdiction to drill all over the globe. They have jurisdiction to drill in many places all over the country that they have not gotten to yet, but want more jurisdiction for obvious reasons.
4. Exxon cares about the environment as much as Phillip Morris cares about lung cancer or health insurance costs.
5. They need Palin to keep saying "drill baby drill" to get this jurisdiction to drill all over the country. Palin works for their campaign dollars, not you.
Big oil is the most profitable industry in the country. You are the ones going broke from gas prices. NOT THEM.
Is anyone actually aware of this or are people more concerned w/ who was associated with who?
I stand corrected Mark, the price of crude oil went up in 2000 dramatically. Every other claim you had is crap. Check Palin's donors for her run for governor.
moreOpen Question: Has lung cancer declined in non-smokers in states that have laws to isolate smokers?
Just wondering if there is a profound effect from such laws.
I live in Southern California, and I remember back in the 80's going to night clubs or playing gigs, and it was just a normal thing for the air to be really smoky. I didn't think much about the stink of cigarettes when the water first hit my head when I showered afterwards, or waking up to a smelly pillow if I didn't shower before going to bed after a night out.
Even though I'm not a smoker, it was weird when the law was first passed here in California, being able to breath clean air in a night spot. Initially, it just felt like something was missing from the ambience. It didn't take too long to get used to it though.
However, I have a few smoker friends who are still upset over that law, justifying their position with, "Well, that was just a normal part of the night life scene. It was just part of the culture. If you don't like it, stay home, don't go to those places, don't go to a bar."
I just wanted to know if there were real measurable benefits that resulted from those laws, facts that I can use in defense of them. PLEASE REFERENCE ACTUAL STATISTICS, ARTICLES, OR REPORTS.
Re: Anime Girl - I live about a hundred miles outside of L.A. (Antelope Valley). Air is quite nice out here.
Re: midnightmoon62 - sorry, I should have clarified, those smokers I referred to were not at all critical of banning smoking in places like grocery stores, restaurants, workplace breakrooms, etc. They were specific to night life places like night clubs, bars, etc.

my friend's mom just died of lung cancer and I just came back from her wake. And when I arrived their at the funeral home, I found out that my friend went to her volleyball game instead of going to her mom's own wake. I know for a fact that, that was her way of coping with her mom's death. Also she's only 14 so yea. I also guess that shes denying the fact that her mom died, but I want to know how to make her more comfortable and acceptable of the fact that her mom died. please any help??????

Where is the most deadliest cancer?
And once the cancer has spread, where abouts in the body is it impossible to get rid of?
I just read about cancer being found in the spine. Why can't they cure it with radiology instead of saying theres nothing they can do? I know everybody is different and everyones bodies respond differently to different treatments, but why can't they fix it?
I read about how tumors form and stuff. How do they make blood vessels grow towards them to supply them with blood to live?
What are the chances of survival for advanced lung cancer or in fact, any type of cancer?
Also, after lung cancer, where does it spread?
Thanks.. Sorry Im really interested in it o_o ...

First of you don't get lung cancer ; there hasn't
been any proof what so ever of anybody dieing from
smoking weed. (i think so). and when you do get
lung cancer from smoking weed, you'll get it
years from now, a lot a lot of years from now.

i am 21 years old and have been smoking for six months. i am happy to say that i stopped smoking about a week ago and the withdrawal seems to have passed.
unfortunately i have a really bad sore throat now (cough syrup isn't helping) and my lungs don't feel too good either (right when i wake up).
now, i know that anyone can get cancer at any time. but given the fact that i am 21, and that i smoked for six months (about 3/4 - 1 pack per day) what are the odds that lung or throat cancer has developed?
now please don't give me some BS answer about how i could get cancer from smoking one cigarette or something cuz that is absurd. i want real statistics or things that your doctors have told you , and i want real numbers here. thanks
moreResolved Question: What do you think of this article...was McCain being transparent when....?
asked to release his medical records?
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/30/new-urgency-over-mccain-m_n_130298.html
Specifically, here is an excerpt:
Provided with only a scant review of the information, questions have begun to rise as to the danger of McCain's most recent bout with cancer. Bronow noted that there are two reports detailing the stage of McCain's latest (his fourth) bout with melanoma. One report put it at a stage 2a, which has a relatively high five-year survival rate; another put it at a stage 3b, which is much more dire in nature.
"As a dermatologist, if I hear about a stage three melanoma, I say 'My God this guy is walking on nails here," said Bronow. "There is that much difference between a stage 2 and a stage 3."
Asked to detail his notes, Gupta said the pathology report - which lists the size and other attributes of the cancer removed - indicated a stage 2a:
"It was 2 centimeters across, 0.22 centimeters deep, and not ulcerated, which gives him a 66 percent survival rate over ten years. Melanoma is a particularly aggressive cancer. Mainly because skin is the largest organ in the body it can spread to the lungs, liver and the brain... Most of the occurrences will occur right away. I am reassured by the fact that it has been eight years now and there hasn't been a reemergence of that melanoma."
Apparently none of the news stations will touch this subject...I cant imagine WHY.

moreResolved Question: Am I wrong for not going to my Mom's funeral today?
My question was removed today since it was not in the right form. My mom Died at home Saturday morning from lung cancer. I and one of my sisters were not called until she had already died. I have 4 brothers and 2 sisters. from what I knew we all had a great relationship with my mom and loved her very much. They were all with her at her bedside in her home when she died.But it seems as though there is an "in charge" brother who seems to think he can call the shots and choose to call who he wanted. He did not call me until Saturday afternoon. He told me that he was not even going to call my other sister at all, so I called her and she was devastated. There were numerous phone calls back and forth with everyone fighting. I came to find out that they have already cleared out her house of the things they want. I am furious and horrified.I chose not to attend the funeral today because of the atmosphere that I knew I would be walking into as I told them what I thought of the fact that they did not call me or my sister to go say our last goodbye to her. It seems my siblings come out of the woodwork when there is a medal to earn and money or things to take. I knew my mom was dying and spoke frequently with her. She lives a distance away from me.I have cried more than you can imagine. My dad died a few years ago suddenly from a massive heart attack.So am I wrong for not being there today(even though her spirit is in heaven) or is it okay for me to make the decision to honor her today the way I need to without having a huge family fight on the day of my mom's funeral as my siblings are not beyond fighting right in the funeral parlor.Can someone please give me an honest opinion? I truly am greiving and feel awful.
I thank everyone for the condolences.My mom's possessions are not important to me, my mom was.I was the only one of the 7 of us that took care of my mom since I was 14 yrs old since she always had health issues. My dad was a cop and she needed my help to raise my brothers and sisters since I am the oldest.They made it quite clear on the phone yesterday that they would have no problem ripping me a new a--hole at the funeral. I realized that it comes down to jealousy because my mom always talked highly of me to them and was grateful for all I did for her.This seemed to have come to a head in the last few months since we knew she was dying. I did not know this was going on between my siblings until yesterday.They never got along with my youngest sister and felt she did not even deserve a call.My mom was always a supporter of charities and I will honor her memory by donating to her favorite charity.
I am reading all of your answers and I am crying my eyes out. It seems unreal to me that I am on a computer trying to sort through my grief.I cannot get that moment before her death to kiss her and say goodbye because of selfish siblings.My son and I will go to her gravesite this week and say our goodbyes privately and in peace.My heart is so broken, I cannot even think straight.Maybe I seem selfish by not going today but my siblings are relentless and it is not fair to my mom to have a brawl with her laying in the casket.I loved my mom very much.
Update: I did not go to my mom's funeral yesterday and I am glad I did not.My daughter went and my oher sister that they did not call and they said it was like a drive by funeral. My "in charge" brother arranged the funeral and it was an hour at the funeral parlor, a few words by the priest and in the ground she went.They dressed her in a Dallas Cowboys uniform and hat.She was a fan but it was a disgrace.My sister said it was inappropiate for her to look like that. She had a favorite dress and they should have put her in that and put the Cowboys things in around her.The kicker is the "in charge" brother called me about 3 hours after the funeral and apologized. A little late.And I was told there was a lot of arguing going on and the "in charge" brother would not let my sister or my daughter in to my mom's house.They wanted to go in and just be there for a little while but he said no.Unbelievable.
For Desilu: Please don't answer a serious question with an answer that is rude because you don't like an answer to your sexual question.Death is a little more important - at least to me.

we read an article on cancer of the lungs and carcinogens and we automatically become scientists on the subject of "drugs". some barely understand the concept of weed, but instead pay attention to those cheesy PSAs that have a G.I.

moreResolved Question: My husband's ex-wife continues to call even though she has been asked more than once NOT to call. ?
This will be long. I have requested that hubby's 1st ex wife NOT call my home due to her trouble making ways. I have been asking his ex-wife this for at least 1 year. So finally I was PISSED after she called yet again 6 days ago and then 3 days ago. So I sent her a certified letter adding the post office certification number to both pages of the letter and made copies for my own records as well as paid for receipt requested. Well the letter was received to day and his ex-wife called yet again and as soon as I answered the phone she said "Mary, thank you for the letter, I needed something to wipe my @ss with" and hung up quickly. I am at my wits end with this woman. I have called the phone company and found out what I need to do to put a stop to it but it can be a lengthy process. I can't exactly block her number because both of hubby's ADULT daughters live with their mom and I do want the girls to always be able to have contact with their dad. I have seriously considered changing the phone number but again, I want hubby's daughters to always be able to call their dad if they need to. I need some creative suggestions to get this woman to stop calling. I am open to ideas. I don't want any conflict between hubby & his daughters but I am afraid that will end up happening because the girls don't think it's right why their mom can't call. I will past a copy of the letter I sent the ex-wife.
Just to be able to follow this, Joann & Jenny are the ADULT daughters. Kim is their mom, the one that refuses to stop calling and Julie is hubby's second ex-wife that he had no children with that also called my home on 9-15-08 and I can only suspect she was given the number by ex-wife #1 (Kim) because the 2 do talk from my understanding.
Heres the letter-
Sunday September 21st., 2008
Kim,
I am sending this letter since you and I can not see eye to eye and have a civil phone conversation due to your screaming. Did you even notice that I was trying to be civil by using a normal tone of voice? I was not screaming at you one bit when you called tonight until you started your screaming at me first.
Let me start here, I have asked you more than once to NOT call MY home because I am sick of the nonsense you have caused in the past when you have called including when you told Bob that you & Julie had talked and decided that since I killed my last 2 husbands that he (Bob) was next. I heard you say it with my own ears when you were talking to Bob on the phone when you told him that last year. If I would have killed anyone, I would be in prison for life and besides, I can not give a person lung cancer or suicide which is how they died and another thing, I was divorced and remarried to my late husband with a new baby for 26 months when my ex-husband died of lung cancer. Your accusation was wrong, un-called for and simply not acceptable in my life! And yes, my life consists of Bob each and every day & night whether you or anyone else like it or not. And you then accused me of taking Bob away from his daughters and more than once when we moved up north. Let me tell you something about that move. We made a decision to move mainly due to finances because of Bobs slip & fall causing his dislocated shoulder that led to a 2 month medical from work that later led to his layoff the day he went back to work that soon after led to his sub-pay from work being garnished for spousal support for Julie when it was being paid each & every month and always at least 2 weeks early and the garnishment was for more than the spousal support obligation and Julie refused to allow her attorney to file the paperwork to stop the garnishment at that time and of course, we could not afford an attorney to fight it. So we had to make the decision to keep from sinking financially. Move to something less expensive and rent the house out in an attempt to save our finances. I have no reason to keep Bob from his daughters whatsoever. Besides, I am a firm believer that he can’t be a good dad to my kids if he can’t be to his own. Bob has been a good dad, paid his child support and lived nearby while the girls were young. The girls are older and need daddy less as kids tend to do once they grow up besides, it’s not like the girls seen Bob very often anyway when we lived in Garden City and that house was how far from your house? Maybe just under a mile? Then you falsely accused me of not giving Bob his phone messages from his girls. I have never nor would I intercept Bobs calls from his daughters and not give him a message, ever. As a matter of fact, I was on a phone call when Joann called here the day Jenny was flipping out with the knife and I told Joann that I would have her dad call her back and then I proceeded to ask Joann if it was an emergency and she said yes so I ended my call and gave Bob the phone. Oh lets see, what else have you falsely accused
me of? How about that I am with Bob for his money, well that IS a joke in its self. Bob has no money and has debt whereas I am debt free, my income is more than his believe it or not. And how about when you accused me of canceling Bobs medical coverage on Joann when Ford said she was no longer eligible due to not residing in the same home with him? I had no reason to cancel HIS own daughter and besides, the medical coverage did not cost us for him to carry his daughter so why would I have canceled her? And how about when I was blamed again by you because Joann could not get college money from Ford because he was not claiming her on his taxes since you are? Have you even thought about how unjustly I have been accused by you for things I have no control over? But I do have control over whom is welcome to call MY home and your NOT WELCOME!
So for all of the above reasons, I do NOT want you to call MY home EVER again PERIOD! You will have to have Joann or Jason call our house or get a message to Bobs parents for him to call Jenny if she is hospitalized. There is no reason why Jenny can’t call if there was an emergency with Joann and Joann can’t call if there was an emergency with Jenny. The girls are adults now and mommy don’t need to be involved with the relationship Bob has with his girls. The three (Bob & the girls) can manage quite well without you being involved.
Oh, and if the girls need something, they can call their dad themselves NOT you like you did last Thursday (September 19th., 2008 @ 11:09 am) telling Bob that Jenny needs money for the attorney. Jenny already called her dad regarding this issue and then you called about the same issue. Let one thing be known, Bobs money is very tight due to ex-wives that think they are owed something, YOU & Julie. You told Bob during the late summer or early fall of 2006 in the Garden City living room that you would not go after his pension and something could be worked out and what did you do? Go after it like you said you would not which made me realize that your word was worthless. I heard you tell Bob this as well. So what it boils down to, Bob has no money to help pay for an attorney as much as he would like to help his daughters when they need help financially.
He’s on a pension now that is severely reduced due to ex-wives and bills have to be paid which leaves him very little money. And do you know how bad this will make Bob feel when his daughters birthdays & Christmas comes to not be able to give like he is used to giving to them?
Ya know Kim, things did not have to be this way and it’s 100% your fault things are the way they are because of your mouth running as fast as a ducks ass. I actually liked you when I first met you, I really did but you soon showed your true colors which changed my mind in an instant and I don’t budge very easily so the way it is now is the way it will be forever most likely.
To summarize my letter, you were wrong for your accusations and never even attempted to rectify your wrongs and you were wrong for attacking Bobs pension like you said you would not do proving your word to be completely worthless which makes you a worthless person in my eyes and I don’t keep worthless people in my life so I repeat one last time, I do NOT want you to call MY home under ANY circumstances. The phone is in my name and I pay the bill and I will not hesitate to change the number and NO ONE will get it if you call one more time and I do NOT appreciate you giving Julie the number either!
Bobs daughters are welcome to visit our home anytime they like and to call anytime they need or want to talk with their dad. That has NEVER nor will ever be an issue.
PS~
I heard you call me a psycho bitch when you were talking to Bob earlier today, takes one to know one! ;-)

We live in a rural area where cell phones don't work 90% of the time and we have a metal roof that stops the cell phone signal anyway, so hubby having a cell for the girls to call him on is not an option. Hubby actually does have a prepaid cell for if he's away from home and needs a phone but like I said earlier, cells do not work in our corner or the rural world. We are surrounded by Amish folks, not cell towers. ;-)
Ex-wife #1 calls from her cell, her home number & her work number at the American Legion. I should maybe call the Legion and let them know she's using their phone to make harassing calls huh?
By the way, hubby is 49, I am 38 and his first ex-wife is believe it or not, like 52 and acting like a 12 year old. It's really time for her to grow the heck up!
I honestly feel for whatever reason, the ex is jealous that hubby & I are happy & get along well and because I have minor sons ages 10 & almost 8 that hubby is helping to raise since their fathers have passed away and he's the closest thing they have to a dad. Though, I promise, I have NEVER tried to come in between his daughters & him because I truly am a firm believer that he can't be a good daddy to mine if he can't be to his own flesh and blood.
moreVoting Question: My Mom is coughing up blood a lot. Doesn't have time to go to the doctor? ?
My Mom has been saying as well as my Dad that she has been coughing up blood. She even says she feels horrible. It has progressed to a lot. She doesn't smoke just to let you know. She won't make the time to go to the doctor! My Mom wants to accompany my Dad in the partnership with him of his new recently promoted position to Admiral of the Navy. She has to go to school with him and are traveling for the next few months. She is stubborn by the fact she wants to be there with him and screw the doctor. Mom told me last night that if it is cancer, you will be fine without me you are a strong girl. How am I supposed to be relaxed after hearing that??? Then along with Dad says our family is going to get lung disease even without smoking because he was upset about it. From my understanding any time there is a lot of coughing up blood it is coming from an underlying problem that is developed from cancer.
I'm really scared.
If it were my health I would want to see if anything can be done about it to save it to enjoy life a little while longer. I think she is afraid to go is what the problem is to only finding out bad news. What do I do???
T.B is totally unrelated to coughing up blood.

moreResolved Question: did people who mocked God DIED early?
Interesting facts about the tragic end of people who mocked God.....
DID YOU KNOW THESE FACTS?
Death is certain but the Bible speaks about untimely death! Make a personal reflection about this. It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7):
'Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sow, that shall he also reap.
Here are some men and women who mocked God :
John Lennon (Singer):
Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said: 'Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have to argue about that. I am certain.
Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, today we are more famous than Him' (1966).
Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.
Tancredo Neves(President of Brazil ):
During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency.
Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.
Cazuza (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet):
During A show in Canecio ( Rio de Janeiro ),
while smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke into the air and said: ‘God, that's for you.'
He died at the age of 32 of LUNG CANCER in a horrible manner.
The man who built the Titanic
After the construction of Titanic, a reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be.
With an ironic tone he said: 'Not even God can sink it'
The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic
Marilyn Monroe (Actress)
She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a show. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said:
'I don't need your Jesus'. A week later, she was found dead in her apartment
Bon Scott (Singer)
The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang:
'Don't stop me; I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell'.
On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit.
Campinas(IN 2005)
In Campinas , Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend.....
The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter holding her hand, who was already seated in the car:
'My Daughter, Go With God And May He Protect You.'
She responded: 'Only If He (God) Travels In The Trunk, Cause Inside Here.....It's Already Full '
Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died,
the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact.
The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none was broken
Christine Hewitt (Jamaican Journalist and entertainer)
said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written.
In June 2006 she was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle.

moreResolved Question: How can you get someone with post-traumatic stress syndrome to go to therapy?
My boyfriend lost his mother to lung cancer last year. I know that he is angry at her inside because he told me that when she had just a "small spot" on her lung, she had the opportunity to get treatment, but purposefully did not pursue it. As she put it, she "made her piece with Jesus". That would devastate me, too so I know he has some deep-seeded anger toward her death. To make things worse, when he was 9 years old, he witnessed his father being shot to death. In fact, he was walking with his father, hand in hand, when his father was shot. He's in a lot of pain and it is destroying him (and our relationship). Thankfully, he's not on drugs or alcohol, but he is definitely spiraling out of control. Any advice? I don't want to leave him when I know that he needs help, but I am battling my own personal demons like everyone else, and he is wearing me out mentally. I'll listen to all advice, please. Thanks.

READ THIS FIRST, before just posting, please. And no spam or flaming, I want real answers. I am a real guy out there somewhere, not just your current image of letters on your monitor of your computer.
I started smoking when I was 16 at the mall just to look cool and quickly became addicted. I smoked on and off for four years (I'm almost twenty now...) and sometimes I smoked very heavily. I've also smoked a lot of pot and done meth etc, a lot of drugs, (but I don't do them now, I only smoke cigarettes occasionally) and what I'm wondering is, should I quit smoking? I mean, I know I should, but if I stop smoking now and start jogging (easy at first) and stay done with them, will it decrease the chance for lung cancer, empysema, etc, or is it permanent? And how do I even know if I have one of those diseases? Would I know or do I have to check? I don't think I have anything wrong with me I feel fine...
Please give me some good facts from reliable websites, as I am trying to want to quit. (I know that sounds stupid...)

My grandmother, being the kind soul that she is, invited them into her house. I know for a fact that these people are junkies and drug dealers but my grandmother will not listen to reason. I'm not embellishing or exaggerating in any way, these people are bad news.
I'm afraid for her safety. I'm afraid that they are going to try to rob her for my grandfather's life insurance money, which they don't know hasn't come in yet, or hurt her and take any valuables that she has in her house. I've tried to talk to her but she will not listen to me, which she has never done before, we've been closer than best friends since I was a baby. Right now we are at the point that she is choosing them. It might be because she is lonely but I can't quit my job to stay home twenty four hours a day to be with her. I don't know what to do. I don't know how to get my grandmother to listen to me, I don't know what's going to happen. Please. Please help me.
moreVoting Question: Cancer and Whiteblood Cells?
I completely understand that I am asking for opinions from posters on the Yahoo Answers site and no information received should be taken as actual medical facts! My fiend was told last week that she has
three small (3mm or 4mm) nodules in the upper area of her right lung. The doctor told her not to worry about it, as everyone has spots, nodules, or small growths inside our bodies that are 100% non-benign and will never effect the operation of an organ or turn to cancer. My friend is really down about this and feels she might be dieing (she has spoke of nothing else other than cancer since her doctor spoke with her). I can understand her anxiety, and sympathize with her, but enough already . . . the sky is not falling. No one in her family has had cancer, nor smoked. She was getting over a bout of strep throat that she was treated for two weeks earlier (her doctor prescribed a antibiotic called a z-pack). Two tablets the first day and then one pill for the next 4 or 5 days. Within two days the yuck on her throat had cleared, the temperature was gone and she could swallow again. Last week (two weeks to the day of being treated for strep) she woke with a temp of 103 and headed to the doctor. The first thing the doctor thought of was that the infection was not totally gone or that maybe she had rumatic fever (a toxin left over by strep throat that attacks the heart). Her blood pressure was 127/103 (her normal blood pressure usually is in the 102/78 area and she said her heart felt heavy) She was sent for xrays so the doctor could look at her heart. Next day her blood pressure was back down to her normal range. This is when the nodules were found, and as mentioned her while blood cell count was up based on a blood test. The doctor tested her the next day and the white blood cell count was returning to normal (the doctor has not prescribed any medication this go around, because he’s really not sure what is going on).
My question, if by some chance my friend does have cancer (or any other infection in her body) wouldn’t her white blood cell count continue to rise instead of dropping off (maybe I have that backwards? I love her and want to help, but want to get some insight first. Thank you.
I believe her doctor will support whatever she decides to do, if for nothing more than giving her peace of mind. Her mother has been diagnosed with mesothelioma. She worked 35 years in a building practically covered in asbestos, but thirty years ago people didn‘t realize or know that asbestos could cause cancer. I think that may be the reason for her panic. I have told her over and over again (I hope I’m right) that you can’t “catch” mesothelioma, nor is it passed from mother to child via DNA.
moreResolved Question: What do I do about my almost 8 year old daughter crying before school?
I am a divorced mother of a highly sensitive almost 8 year old girl. She went to pre-k, kindergarten, and first grade without any problem. In fact loved every aspect of school. I have always been a full time working parent. She goes to my parents home before and after school and has always ridden the bus. We have had a very interesting year. My father was diagnosed with lung cancer in February. With all the hospital and Dr. visits, she attended day care this past summer instead of staying with him as usual. His prognosis is good and he is not sickly. She loved day care until the last three weeks.Her closest friend there stopped coming. She started crying each night and morning that she didn't want to go. That has continued with school, now into the second week. She says nothing was wrong at daycare or school. Everyone is nice, no problems. She says she misses me and doesn't want to leave me. I made a sticker chart for reward after a completed week of no crying to no avail. My mother says to punish her, I don't feel like that is the answer. I only punish bad behavior. I'm becoming quite frustrated at this point as well as my parents. Will it end?
The divorce happened when she was three. Her father is very active in her life. Her father and I have a decent relationship. She spends much quality time with me. I believe she is fine after she gets to school. She is happy as pie when she gets home.
moreResolved Question: WHY DONT U LEGALIZE?
The article begins by talking about the danger of cigarettes coming mainly from Tobacco grown using fertilizer which contains calcium phosphate. If you don't want to read all of that.
Basically, if you smoke, you should pick up an organic line of cigarettes (American Spirit for example), as they are not grown using calcium phosphate fertilizer.
I have pasted the specifics about Marijuana below:
Many people think smoking marijuana is just as harmful as smoking tobacco, but this is not true. Those who hold that marijuana is equivalent to tobacco are misinformed. Due to the efforts of various federal agencies to discourage use of marijuana in the 1970's the government, in a fit of "reefer
madness," conducted several biased studies designed to return results that would equate marijuana smoking with tobacco smoking, or worse.
For example the Berkeley carcinogenic tar studies of the late 1970's concluded that "marijuana is one-and-a-half times as carcinogenic as tobacco." This finding was based solely on the tar content of cannabis leaves compared to that of tobacco, and did not take radioactivity into consideration. (Cannabis tars do not contain radioactive materials.) In addition, it was not considered that:
1) Most marijuana smokers smoke the bud, not the leaf, of
the plant. The bud contains only 33% as much tar as tobacco.
2) Marijuana smokers do not smoke anywhere near as much as tobacco smokers, due to the psychoactive effects of cannabis.
3) Not one case of lung cancer has ever been successfully linked to marijuana use.
4) Cannabis, unlike tobacco, does not cause any narrowing of the small air passageways in the lungs.
In fact, marijuana has been shown to be an expectorant and actually dilates the air channels it comes in contact with. This is why many asthma sufferers look to marijuana to provide relief. Doctors have postulated that marijuana may, in this respect, be more effective than all of the prescription drugs on the market.
Studies even show that due to marijuana's ability to clear the lungs of smog, pollutants, and cigarette smoke, it may actually reduce your risk of emphysema, bronchitis, and lung cancer. Smokers of cannabis have been shown to outlive non-smokers in some areas by up to two years. Medium to heavy tobacco smokers will live seven to ten years longer if they also
smoke marijuana.
Cannabis is also radically different from tobacco in that it does not contain nicotine and is not addictive. The psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, THC, has been accused of causing brain and genetic damage, but these studies have all been disproven. In fact, the DEA's own Administrative Law Judge Francis Young has declared that "marijuana in its natural form is far safer than many foods we commonly consume."

Chapter 1: Unexpected reunion
I was just fifteen when I fell in love. He was eight-teen…but I didn’t care if he was a hundred years old, I would still love him no matter what. It’s been two years sense I last saw Angel. I knew that he would look the same, even after two years. I was sitting at the corner café on first and fifth when I saw him. And I was right… He did look the same. His eyes were the same shade of blue, his hair that same shade of jet black, and his mouth, nose, and everything else looked the same too my eyes. I saw him sit across the café from me. I pulled the menu up so that he wouldn’t see my face. But he wouldn’t remember me…the girl who told him I love you. Then he was gone, puff, vanished…. He left without a trace, without saying good-bye. As I told myself I was being silly, I put down my menu. As I did this, I saw Sally (my best friend) making her way over to me. When she got to the table, I saw that she was breathing heavy.
“I-I know I’m late,” She said trying with her teeth chattering. “B-But there was a lot of traffic. S-So I ran here. And I got on the subway, but of course it was crowded!” I chuckled as she sat down. She threw her purse on the table, her teeth still chattering from the cold. She picked up her menu, and opened it, I looked over her shoulder to get one more look at him, but saw that he wasn’t there. I looked all over the café but couldn’t find him. Maybe I just imagined him…I thought.
“Hmph, am I going crazy or what?” I asked myself. Sally looked up from her menu; she hunched up her eyebrow as if confused.
“What?” I shook my head, and then the waiter walked over and took our order. I sat there; now and then looking across the café hoping I would see him again.
“So Natalie…how’s your brother doing?” she asked while playing with her straw.
“Huh?” I asked not paying attention. She sighed and took a sip of her diet coke.
“How’s Jeff doing?” She asked. I combed my fingers threw my dark brown hair, and sighed.
“Oh… I guess okay. He really isn’t around that much anymore. After Ginger died, his kind of been distant you know, not wanting to talk to me, or Mom…not even too Kevin,” I said. “I mean it’s to be expected. Ginger was his wife after all.” I said looking up, and saw she was staring at me.
“What?” I asked irritated.
“I just feel so bad for him you know. I mean him and Ginger were married for only what, a year.” I was surprised that she would say that.
“Sally it doesn’t matter if they were married a few mouths none the less a year, marriage is marriage, and love is love. How long were your parents married before your Mom died?” I asked somewhat angry. I saw her winch, and I knew I hurt her. I took a deep breath trying to calm down.
“Listen… I am sorry for what I said. You know how I get when it comes to Jeff….” She sighed and then she looked at me with a huge grin on her face.
“Your right I shouldn’t have said anything.” She said still smiling at me. We sat there in complete silence for what felt like hours more then minutes.
“So when‘s the wedding?” She asked taking another sip of her drink. I sighed and looked out the window at the crowded street.
“They want to have the wedding in December.” She nodded and picked up her napkin and laid it in her lap. I looked at were Angel sat when he first arrived. And there he was, sitting as if he just came fell down from heaven. Looking so fair skinned and beautiful. I couldn’t take my eyes off him. And when Sally asked me what I was looking at. I couldn’t help but say.
“My Angel…” She gave me her “What” look, and then looked over her shoulder. After a few second, she looked back at me and her eyes looked like they were about to pop out of her head.
“Do you know that guy?” She asked in a hyperactive kind of way. I nodded my head and continued to stare at him. Sally still had her mouth hanging open when the waiter came up with our food.
“Are you alright Miss?” The waiter asked kindly. Sally blushed and croaked a
“Yes!” What am I doing? I thought. I needed to stop, my feelings for him were in the past, and I needed to move on. I painfully dragged my eyes down to my lap. I picked up my hamburger and began to eat it slowly.
“What’s his name?” Sally asked before biting into her sandwich. I jumped a little at her question.
“Huh,” I said while blinking my eyes a few times. She gave me “you heard me” look. “Oh his name…it’s…it’s Angel.” I said a little shy, and I had no idea why.
“Well that makes sense…. “She got up and I jumped up and grabbed her arm, and pulled her back down in her seat.
“What the hell are you doing,” I asked in a whisper. “Don’t you dare go over there?” She smiled at me. She got back up and started to pull me along with her, to the table were he was sitting with a woman I hadn‘t noticed. She had light blonde hair, bright green eyes, and was skinny…. I already hated her. I let go of her arm and ran back to the table, threw down my part of the bill and ran around the corner, hoping he didn‘t see me. She walked up to the table and blurted out.
“Hi, your Angel right?” I looked over at them and saw him nod his head and reply with a
“Yes.” He said genteelly.
“Ha ha, I guess she does know you after all,” She looked back towards our table that was now empty. “Huh, where’d she go?” She asked. He sighed, and stood up towering over her. She looked at him with her mouth hanging open.
“I’m sorry but, who are you and what are you talking about?” He asked. Sally blushed. She picked at her shirt and smoothed out the wrinkles.
“M-My friend…says she knows you….” She said still blushing. He sighed again.
“And who might your friend be?” He asked sounding bored. Sally clasped her heads together and squeezed tight.
“H-Her name…? Ummmmm….” Saying as if she forgot He pointed his index finger in the air and moved it left, to right, saying
“Tick, tock, tick, tock,” She looked back up at him, opened her mouth, but nothing came out. “I don‘t have all day sweetie,” He said brushing his fingers there his hair. “If ya got nothing to say, then go away. He was being so rude to Sally…! He was really pissing me off! It was wrong for me to make her tell him it was I in the first place. The girl that said I love you…but you never said it back. I knew it was time to let myself be known. I took a deep breath. All right, it’s time to let him know it’s me. I thought. I stepped out of the shadows and walked over towards them. He looked my way and his face turned chalk white.
“Hi Angel, long time no see,” He looked at me up and down. He cleared his throat and opened his mouth. But couldn’t find the right words. “How have ya been?” I asked while he still searched for words to say.
“N-Natalie?” He asked speechless. I nodded my head and chuckled. “What?” He asked with a scowl on his face. I looked up at him and smiled.
“Oh I’m just surprised that you remembered my name, that’s all.” I chuckled again and looked over at Sally who was now staring at me surprised. “Well it’s nice too seeing you again, Angel. But Sally and I have to leave. Come on Sally,” Sally stood there for a minute looking confused. “Sally come on!” I said starting to feel anxious to get away. When she didn’t move, I grabbed her arm and pulled her after me. When were outside of the café, I let out the breath I had been holding for so long. And when I let it out, I noticed at how fast my heart was beating. It was so loud that I couldn’t hear anything but it’s speed. As my heart slowed down, I heard Sally was screaming at me.
“What the hell, Natalie! Who the hell was that guy?” She tugged on my arm so hard that it felt like it was about to pop out of it’s socket. I yanked my arm out of her grip and stomped toward the cross lane. I pushed the button on the stop light and waited impatiently for the “red had” sign to turn to “walk“. When it finally did, I didn’t go across. I spun around and glared at Sally with so much anger, that it hurt to hold it in. Therefore, I just had to let it out…!
“Sally, why did do that!” I screamed. I felt tears burning the inside of my eyes lid. But I wouldn’t let them fall, I wouldn’t cry.
“I…,” She said. I turned around fuming and walked across when she shouted, “I’m sorry!” I stopped; I looked back at her and saw she was crying. I took a deep breath and took a step back towards her when everything went black.
Chapter 2: Unfamiliar faces
The next thing I knew I was laying on my back next to the car that hit me. My back was sore; I couldn’t move a muscle without flinching. I heard people shouted from far away, or at least I thought they were. One voice stood out from everyone else‘s. It was Sally screaming my name repeatedly, while she ran over to me.
“Natalie! Natalie,” She screamed. “Are you alright?” She screamed with tears flowing down her cheeks. I tried to pull myself up. But didn’t make it an inch before falling back down.
“I’m sore…all over…!” I whispered in pain. She dung into her purse and had her cell phone out in seconds. She dialed 911, and then spoke in such a hurry that she had to repeat herself, to the operator.
“My friend was hit by a car on the corner of first and fifth! Send an ambulance!” She screamed still crying as if she was the one who was hit by the car. She closed the phone after a few moments and dropped to her knees. She put her face into her hands, and began to cry again. And then let out an ear splitting cry, that it made me feel like my ear drums were about to explode.
“Sally…stop screaming? “ I asked. She looked down at me wide eyed, and then howls with joy. I winched.
“Damn it Sally! Please lower your voice?” I asked trying to remain clam; I laid there staring up at the clear blue sky. Thinking at how did these things always happened to me. The ambulance arrived 10 minutes later. They checked if I had any broken bones, I told them I didn’t have any. They shined a little light in my eyes, and asked me questions. Like when was my birthday, how old I was, what was my name, stuff a five year old could answer. I answered them all of course.
“Miss is you in pain,” The man asked. I nodded not want to speak. I was afraid that if I uttered a word more pain would come.
“What hurts, honey?” An older woman asked, while she touched me here and there, seeing if I would flinch.
“My backs a little sore, but my right arm hurts the most of all.” I said in a whisper. He nodded his head. He then put a neck brace on my neck, and then they put me on the gurney. However, before they loaded me into the ambulance, Sally run up to me and hugged me. I let out a gasp, she let go instantly.
“Sorry.” She said and smiled. I smiled back at her. As they wheeled me towards the ambulance. I saw Angel on the sidewalk not five feet away. He had his back to me, speaking with one of the police officers. Then they loaded me into the ambulance. I looked out to the unfamiliar faces looking in at me. I saw that now Angel was staring at me with a look of concern. I was surprised at his look; I didn’t think that he cared that much to look at me like that. I lifted my hand and waved to him. His face softened, he then waved back. I could not stop my mouth from tilting up into a smile. I winched from the pain. I looked back to see if Angel was still standing on the sidewalk, but he wasn’t. He was walking down the street to his car… with that girl. They closed the doors, and then we were on our way to the hospital. When they wheeled me into the hospital, I saw my Mom and Kevin. My Mom was crying her eyes out, but Kevin was there trying his best to comfort her.
“Mom!” I called over to her. Mom looked up at me, and then sprang up sprinting over to me, shouting her lungs out.
“Natalie Joan Miller! Why were you in the street when it a green light,” I laid there waiting for them to move me to safe. However, I knew they weren’t going to in time. “I mean you could have died! What were you thinking?” She cried. I sighed,
“Listen Mom I’m sorry. I didn’t know the light was green, it was red when I started to cross.” Her eyes grew wide.
“Oh.” She said. Kevin stood behind her not wanting to get into it. I looked over at him and smiled.
“Hi Kev, what’s up?” I asked, and he smiled.
“Nothing much. I’m glad that your safe, sweetheart.” That made me smile. That was the first time that Kevin said something like that to me. After a few minutes, they rolled me to my room. They put me on the hospital bed and left. I heard a swoosh sound. I looked over and saw a girl a few years younger then me lying on the bed next to mine.
“Hi,” She said with a sweet smile. I couldn’t help but smile too. “What’s your name?” She asked. I pushed the bed up in a sitting position. I sighed and lifted my arm to scratch at the neck brace. But my arm hurt too much to be able to lift it that high.
“Hello?” She asked in a kind of funny way.
“Hi sorry, my names Natalie,” I said and yawned. “What’s yours?” I looked over at the girl and noticed for the first time that she didn’t have any hair.
“My name’s Marie, nice to meet you.” I couldn’t stop myself from staring at her head.
“I have cancer,” She said and pointed at her head. “That’s why I don’t have any hair.” She said and smiled. I blushed.
“I’m sorry I didn’t mean to stare.” I said. My neck started to ache, so I lay back down and looked at the ugly white ceiling. After awhile my eyes were dry, I had to blink a few times to get them moister back in them. And looked over at the open window. It was cloudy out now, and there was a breeze coming through the window, it felt good on my warm skin.
“You don’t look to good,” She said. I looked over at her and saw that she was smirking. “What happened?” I sighed and let out a short laughed.
“Got hit by a car that’s what happened,” I said and sighed a sigh of pettiness. Why was my life full of bad luck? I thought. “I’m cursed.” I said. She laughed and then it was quiet. My eyes began to feel heavy, and the next thing I knew I was asleep dreaming of My Angel. It was a sad dream; I’ve had it many times before. I dreamt that Angel was leaving again, and I was running after him while he drove away. I shouted his name repeatedly, trying to catch up with him. But I never catch him. I woke with a start, and then I started to remember the dream, I started to cry. I wiped my face with the back of my hand. And lay there for not more then a second. When I heard a strange noise.
“Still a cry baby I see.” I pushed the up button and the bed sprang up into a sitting position, and saw Angel sitting in a chair not two feet away. I glared over at him.
“What are you doing here,” I asked annoyed. I heard him chuckled under his breath. “What’s so funny?” I asked even more annoyed. He chuckled again.
“I was worried about you, so I came to see if you were going to live.” Now it was my turn to chuckle.
“Why would you care what happens to me,” I asked quietly not wanting to wake Marie up. “I mean you never cared before, and---”
“Stop right there,” He shouted. “What makes you so sure that I don’t care, hmmmm! You don’t know me!” I just laughed.
“Oh don’t I,” I said in a bitter tone. “I told you how I felt and you blew me off completely, and then to make matters worse, you left the city! I didn’t know were you gone! It was killer not knowing were you went, not knowing if you were safe…if you were dead,” I gasped and threw my hands to my face and began to sob. “…You really hurt me you know.” I said through my hands. There was a click. I pulled my hands from my face, and saw that Angel was leaving.
“Sorry but Janice is waiting for me outside. It was good to see you again, Natalie,” He bowed his head and whispered a good-bye. Then he was gone. More tears flew down my cheeks. I heard the swoosh noise again. I looked over at Marie. She was rubbing her eyes with the back of her hand.
“What’s with all the noise,” She asked annoyed. “I’m trying to sleep over here.” I made sure that I was tear free and smiled over at her.
“Sorry I’ll try to be quiet.” I said and she yawned.
“Kay…thanks.” She laid back in bed and moved around a little bit, finally getting comfortable. I laid there waiting for more tears to come, but they never did, and I was happy that they didn’t. My eyes grew heavy, and then I fell asleep not dreaming about Angel, in fact not dreaming at all.

moreResolved Question: How bad is marijuana?
okay before I start, if you have no information on marijuana and are just gonna tell me it's going to kill me please do not answer. I have a lot of friends that smoke pot (southern Cali of course) and they've been trying to get me to do it for a while. I want the facts on whether pot will effect my brain functions and motivation, etc if I use it moderatly( let's say once a week). I already know about the carcinogins but oddly enough THC seems to have a counter effect on these since weed can't be linked to lung cancer. I've read countless articles that have said that it is relativley harmless. Are there any long term mental effects?
moreResolved Question: Masturbation and Smoking.
Fact: Most (or alot of) christians believe that masturbation is a form of fornication and a sin.
Fact: Masturbation reliefs stress and reduces the chance of prostate cancer without the need of sexual intercourse and risk of STDs.
Fact: Masturbation or the need to 'use the tool' is a common urge amongst mammals and other animals. The need to reproduce is common amongst all species.
Fact: Again, Masturbation is considered a sin.
Now to my point.

moreResolved Question: OMG!! does this bring tears to your eyes??
I had to write a sad, true monologue for my acting class. So, tell me what you think:
Dear Grandpa,
It has been a few years since the last time i saw you. I will admit, when you first passed of lung cancer, i didn't think much of it, but now that i am older and things are beginning to change, i realize that now is when i need you most.
I don't remember much about you. I know the facts by heart- in the Navy, had 6 daughters, and traveled the world. From what i've heard, you were the nicest person in the world and i believe that. While my other grandparents complained about not kissing them and not saying i love you, you simply said "she will come when she is ready."
My last memory of you alive was in your room. You were on you hospital bed, unable to speak, and already in stage four of cancer. We all knew this would be the last time we saw you. I would give anything to take back that last day. I wish i told you how much i would miss you and how hard it is to say goodbye.
Now my family seems to be falling apart. And i know i only knew you for a short while, but when i look at my family i think of you and good of a grandfather you would have been to me. You taught me to be a stronger person and to fight through all the pain. No matter how much you were going through, you always had a smile for me. You were the best family i could have asked for. I know your looking down from wherever you are and watching over me. And although this is late, i just want you to know that i miss you.
Love,

moreResolved Question: My father has cancer...
My father was diagnosed with lung cancer in May. They did a brain scan and found out that it spread to his brain. He went through radiation on his brain, which really took a toll on him. Then came chemo. He did his first treatment, and had a heart attack the next day and ended up in the hospital for 5 days. He had his second treatment and felt fine for a few days, then felt like crap at the end of his cycle. He just got his last chemo treatment on Monday [ August 4th ]. I thought that was the end of him being sick, but he told me that he might have to start over if it didn't help. I just saw my father on Sunday for the first time since he started his chemotherapy treatments. He looks horrible. His skin color is grey. He has spots on the top of his head [from the radiation i'm guessing ]. He is very skinny. Is he going to look like this forever? Honestly, as bad as it sounds, I didn't recognize him when I walked into the room. He looks dead =[.
I have a lot of questions & I'm just going to list them, so if you have the answer to any of them, please answer..
My father says that the doctor's never told him what stage his cancer was in. Is that possible? Or do you think he is trying to spare my feelings by not telling me?
Is he going to feel this horrible for the rest of his life? Or only until the chemo gets out of his system?
They`re telling me that my father will never get better, though he may stay the same. What does that mean exactly?
I'm sorry if this seems real mixed up, but I have so much on my mind right now & I don't know what to do or who to talk to. I can't stop crying. I don't even want to cope with the fact that i might be losing my father.
I`m 21 years old.

moreResolved Question: Drinking too much milk IS bad for you
I have red a book about it and i had a personal experience, you guys tell me what you think.
There has been many tests that too much milk is bad for you, we drank milk when we were kids and it was good but as you get older you have to substitute milk with other things where you can get calcium from and proteins, calcium can be found in cheeses yogurts and even some veggies. Drinking milk by the gallons can cause bone problems, diabetes, and cancers (it has been tested) since we cannot digest the proteins that the milk contains it just rots in our bodies or turns us lactose intolerant as we get older! We are just so brainwashed that drinking a lot of milk is good for you and the milk industries are so powerful that the media and people deny those facts and even a book came out about it http://www.thechinastudy.com/about.html and people still say its false because they are trying to keep the truth out!calves drink milk, but then they eat grass when older.
I used to drink a lot of milk when i was like 14 and i started developing a lot of back pains and i had lung problems it was like asthma i would always have to use inhalers my doctor told my mom not to let me drink milk at all! because too much is bad for you and its the ignorance of society that forces us to do so, and when i stopped i got much better and that breathing problem of mine vanished.
So what are your opinions about it.
P.S. after many years i tried whole milk and i LOVED it i kept drinking it and its been 2 years now and this past june i became lactose intolerant! and so did my ex bf who used to live on a farm and drink gallons of it every day (pasteurized ofcourse)

moreVoting Question: Would high sugar foods cause an immediate response in cancer patients
meaning, it would cause something like immdiate pain in the upper abdomen/chest. Or lower abdomen, or whereever the tumour happens to be.
Ive been worrying a lot about cancer for the last few years, especially 2 years ago when I performed oral on a girl I later found out have cervical cancer caused by the hpv virus. Shortly after my tonsils swelled up ato the and stayed that way(possibly due to the HPV virus). I have very noticeable veins in th back of my throat, and now 2 years later I have begun having abdominal pains and chest pain and weird symptoms I have never had before. Numerous doctors assured me I didnt have cancer, but they never did any scans to prove there were no cancerous growths. It really bothers me that every doctor I go to refuses to do scans on any area that might be at risk and that I show symptoms of(probably because I am only 23) and they believe a 23 year old couldnt possibly get cancer so early in life. Ive had chest and abdominal pains for 2 months now and have been to E.R and urgent care, they dont think much of my symptoms, but never do any relavent tests according to my concerns. I tell them its my lower intestine, and they test my lungs, I just dont get why they are so reluctant to ease my mind and ensure they are in fact correct with their diagnosis(which they still havnt given me a reason why I have these pains that they cant explain)
Im worried that I had cancer all along and it has no spread to my other organs causing these symptoms. I have no money to pay for the scans myself, and like I said the doctors refuse to do it. Ive seen ENT specialists, primary doctors, er doctors, and they all give me the run around.

Over the years and even through school I have fought for the truth to be told about marijuana.

Why does society have such a hard time accepting marijuana? Why are we being lied to and why are the FACTS not being told to us?

Of course its illegal but I don't see a single imoral thing about it. I've been researching marijuana for years and nothing about it is bad. If it was legalized we could be using hemp instead of trees, oil, cotton, and so much more. And cannabis has played a large role in ancient cultures, and some religions. Even some Christians link cannabis to the bible.
The Netherlands is a wonderful example of what legalization can do for a country. They have been selling marijuana in government run coffee shops and the results are shocking.

moreResolved Question: Would like to read some of these true facts?
DID YOU KNOW THESE FACTS?
I SURE DIDN'T TILL NOW
Death is certain but the Bible speaks about untimely death!
Make a personal reflection about this.....
Very interesting, read until the end.....
It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7):
'Be not deceived; God is not mocked:
for whatsoever a man sow,
that shall he also reap.
Here are some men and women
who mocked God :
John Lennon (Singer):
Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said:
'Christianity will end, it will disappear.
I do not have to argue about
that. I am certain.
Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, today we are more famous than Him' (1966).
Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.
Tancredo Neves (President of Brazil ):
During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency...
Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.
Cazuza (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet):
During A show in Canecio ( Rio de Janeiro ),
while smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke into the air and said:'God, that's for you.'
He died at the age of 32 of LUNG CANCER in a horrible manner.
The man who built the Titanic
After the construction of Titanic, a reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be.
With an ironic tone he said:
'Not even God can sink it'
The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic
Marilyn Monroe (Actress)
She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a show.
He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her.
After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said:
'I don't need your Jesus'.
A week later, she was found dead in her apartment
Bon Scott (Singer)
The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang:
'Don't stop me; I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell'.
On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit.
Campinas (IN 2005)
In Campinas , Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend.....
The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter holding her hand, who was already seated in the car:
'My Daughter, Go With God And May He Protect You.'
She responded: 'Only If He (God) Travels In The Trunk, Cause Inside Here.....It's Already Full '
Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died,
the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact.
The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none was broken
Christine Hewitt (Jamaican Journalist and entertainer)
said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written.
In June 2006 she was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle.
Many more important people have forgotten that there is no other name that was given so much authority as the name of Jesus.
Many have died, but only Jesus died and rose again, and he is still alive.
'Jesus'
PS: If it was a joke, you would have sent it to everyone.
So are you going to have courage to send this?.
I have done my part, Jesus said
'If you are embarrassed about me,
I will also be embarrassed about you before my father.'
You are my 8 in 8 seconds. I am not breaking this. No way!
I'M TOLD THIS WORKS!!!!! Bishop T.D. Jakes '8 Second Prayer.' Just repeat this prayer and see how God moves!!
'Lord, I love you and I need you, come into my heart, and bless me, my family, my home, and my friends, in Jesus' name. Amen.'
Pass this message to 8 people {EXCEPT YOU AND ME}.You will receive a miracle tomorrow. I Hope that you don't ignore and

When I told my boyfriend he made a pouting facial expression and left the room without saying a word. Then he canceled our date for later that evening and proceeded to ignore me for a whole month until I told him I was breaking up with him. He swore he loved me, but he doesn’t ever discuss what is going on with me or ask how I am doing. He keeps disappearing for periods of time now. I also notice he only comes around when he is having problems or wants some action. I am starting to feel used and I told him that, but he claims the fact he is still calling me is enough to prove he cares, but if he did why would he ignore me and just focus on himself? So am I right about him?

My friend has a site on 360 and we have been corrisponding with another for quite some time. Since I have meet this precious person she has been running into some bad times. We met when she was writing a blog daily on her mothers progress due having cancer. Dealing and loosing her mother just over a year ago, left her with only on relative a son. The son tries to do what he can for her, but is married a someone who is very jealous of the fact that when he tries to spend time with his mother she makes life really hard for him. So needless to say she is on her own to deal with doctors wanting to amputedate her leg, with the bad news she just reciceved that she has cancer in her lung. She has called me crying wanting me to put an update on her 360 as a comment regarding her condition.
So my question is how can i put on her front page an update where when people check in on her that they can see my message from her. Is that possible to do? If so pls do let me know so i can leave a commit
