Yeah, but that propensity for it to migrate outside your uterus is problematic. A friend of mine just had to have a surgeon perform a scavenger hunt for her Mirena as it had left its intended place and was wedged in her body.

Apologizing for stirring up fears? Oh come on. How much of a helicopter parent do you have to be that this gets you worked up?

Spoken like someone who clearly doesn't know anyone crazy enough to truly commit Munchausens by Proxy. If you did, you'd recognize the crazy, and you'd recognize that this woman isn't it.

Fuck you.

And a big Fuck You to the Facebook bitch in my friends feed who thought that it was appropriate to publish nothing but THIS photo today. Stupid motherfucking bitch. Not even a note of sorrow, just this. I don't know what is in her goddamned stupid fucking head. Yeah, choose an NRA talking point over sorrow over 20…

I don't see a difference in hair texture. I see shininess added to the black hair, so that it can be differentiated easily from the darkest tones in the image. I think the hair looks good in both.

I agree. I am not finding much to get up in arms about, and I get up in arms pretty easily.

You left out the part where I specified that these forms were "disturbing" because they could damage or irritate her lungs. That's the only reason I have a problem with it. And vaping WILL irritate your lungs, even if it doesn't cause any serious damage. If she's already fighting cancer, she doesn't need anything to…

My 5th grade math teacher thought my bangs were too long (I was growing them out) and that they hung in my face too much. She forced me to wear a headband, which I hated because I have a hell of a widow's peak.

It can still be very rough on your lungs and induce coughing fits, which a kid suffering from leukemia probably doesn't need. I've used one enough to know.

Ironically, my sister was my brother's twin. They were both four years older than I was. He was a "cool" kid in school, so as far as I know he didn't get crap, but we never really talked about it. I don't know how he got through her death at the time. It really and truly messed me up, to the point of requiring…

Thanks LittleFlower, that meas a lot to me.

Never said it was. In fact, I didn't mention chemotherapy at all in this post. Did you mean to address this reply to a different post?

Thank you. I have told the story many times, and I sometimes wonder if I shouldn't. I mean isn't it all just a grand "overshare"? I was once cruelly told by a child on the playground, a week after my sister's death, that I should "Shut up, stop talking about it. Get over it."

Thank you. Chemotherapy and radiation are designed to poison the body. I know many who have survived cancer, and its treatments - and most do not live on unscathed.

The idea of her vaping, toking or hitting a bong is disturbing, but I see nothing wrong with administering medical marijuana via edibles or in a pill form. Mainly I wouldn't want her to damage her lungs through the more traditional methods.
