What I love about her is that she always wears that same damn cut/lines for everything and yet we can never object because she does it so well. That's how you know you're killing it. I swear all she does sometimes is dye an old dress and rewear it, and yet it still works. The woman knows her body.

Except the Golden Globes Best Dressed ones. Do not give her those.

Who is Liana Vasquez? Searching her only brings up white pages listings...

Gonna guess I'm not the only one who'd never heard of Conchita Wurst and was so. damn. confused?

Zac Posen was her childhood babysitter and personally designs everything she wears to these things. I can only assume he's getting back at her for being a shitty little kid.

I think what's impressive with celebrities isn't so much the weight they lose but how *toned* they get seemingly overnight. Breastfeeding can make weight go down but it can't re-firm up dat ass. That's serious workouts and/or "little touch-ups" helping them out.

Did you see her back? She just gave birth and yet her chub rolls are I think a little smaller than mine. I say have all the cut-outs you want and then some, sister.

Will I still be able to sleep/eat?

Single?

Sorry about that. I knew that fourth obscure local handcrafted plus a carne asada combo meal was a bad idea.

Guess that's why they took away her scissors, then.

PAGING ANNA: Cassandra has published an op-ed. It doesn't really say anything new — for example, it says she wanted a second opinion but conveniently leaves out with whom — but you should share her voice.

When I was a patient there, they took away avaluables for safekeeping (pretty common for hospitals) and you had full use of your room phone. So she should be able to talk to her mom all she wants. The phone being taken away is not punishment. Again, remember that you're only hearing the mother's version of

The Connecticut Children's Medical Center is an outstanding hospital, with affiliations with the UConn and Yale med schools, that actively encourages second opinions. The mother was not going to take her daughter to another doctor, however, but rather a naturopath who "cures" cancer with woo-woo.

"People are fleeing Connecticut" = population drop of about 3,000, smaller than the attendance at a minor league hockey game. Cool story, though.

Teen Removed From Home, Given Lifesaving Treatment Over Mother's Objections

CCMC *encourages* second opinions. From doctors. Which is not what the mother was going to get.

1) CCMC is bound by privacy laws here, but generally speaking, they will only use restraint cuffs if a patient is harming themself or others. There is certainly more to that than the mother is letting on.

The Office of the Child Advocate is a state position in Connecticut. The child advocate and her/his subordinates have legal privileges.

I know you're caught up now, so I won't reply to your original points, but I wanted to reassure you that CCMC would *never* report a parent without serious cause. They are not one of those hospitals that reports every kid who comes in with a bruise. They are a good hospital with smart people.
