I will tell you though. I have a terribly high risk. Mother and aunt. I’m over 40. I recently found a lump. My doc saw me right away but it took 5 weeks to get the mammogram. The hospital had done construction at one site and now was doing the other site. 5 weeks was the first available appt. scheduling can be so…

No, no, no. Please do not ever give health details to customers or other workers. You don’t have permission. Urgent health issue is a good phrase.

My hospital calls the mammogram + ultrasound a diagnostic mammogram not a comprehensive mammogram. I suspect this woman was getting a regular mammogram without ultrasound if she said she needed an hour. Mine take about two hours with the ultrasound too.

All states are at-will except Montana. Unless there is a union or a contract, the reason for firing is actually not that important unless they are fired for being part of a protective class. You can fire someone for wearing an ugly shirt if you want. I’m not sure why you say the reason is so important. Not everyone…

I don’t understand. Do you think people are admitted to the hospital for a mammogram? That’s the opposite of outpatient. You must not live in the US because no insurance company here would pay for that.

I’m with you on disconnecting them. Nudity is not automatically sex. But not in public places, especially public places considered sacred. These people aren’t making a statement. They’re simply being (and showing) a**holes.

I don’t understand either. I have done my share of touristy things. Not once have I gotten there and thought Now I Must Get Naked. Who does that?

I think it’s okay to be conflicted about the situation. We would like to understand WHY. Why does she want to be a different race? How did she keep it up this long? Where has her family been until now? Can we feel sorry for her?

Josh is banned from a business he’s never been to in a city he doesn’t frequent. Ooooo. I bet he feels punished now.

I’ve never watched the show. I didn’t know it existed. But who could watch and think this is a good thing? They are prostitutes with a pimp.

The article says that happened twice in this particular story. Is that not true?

These people are a waste of space.

I like this. My siblings pretended I didn’t need a kidney. But seriously, this case is awful. This poor woman ends up feeling this is her only choice.

You are right. This is her 3rd baby and she doesn’t want babies. She needs access to reliable, affordable birth control.

I think trigger warnings have evolved into something really unhelpful.

Pro-choice groups have never advocated for abortion at 36 weeks. Who would say that? They are sub-human themselves to post that.

I also do not understand being transgender. It makes no sense to me. But I also don’t see it as something for me to accept or reject or approve or whatever. I don’t know the Jenners or the Kardashians. I think they are pretty much all fame whores and could go away. But it has absolutely no effect on me what their…

I’m with you. However, I suspect it’s considered inappropriate to even want to try on an “immodest” gown.

It’s the “in” style these days and for many it is awful. Have you seen the wedding announcements in local papers? It looks like the groom is in a tux and the bride is naked.

I think that you CAN leave but then you are off the show. You went there because you want to be on tv so you stay. A few contestants have left Project Runway. They are not stopped but they are not contestants anymore.
