Usually I clean it up, it ALWAYS pees in my room, so I am always the one who has to clean it. This morning I woke up 30min late for work already, that was the other reason I asked her to clean it. I didn't even get breakfast this AM. |
Don't waste energy hating a dog. They will love you anyway.

best friend, lump in boob, specialist did not put on happy-it-might-be-a-cyst face.

Don't fret too much Monster! I had a scary go about ten years ago but after sending the offending lump to three labs they determined it was "nothing". :rolleyes:
|
Mon, hope all turns out well. No use in freaking out, of course not somethin thats easy to control. Try keeping busy, and spending as much time with your friend as you can.

Monday morning. Same class. Same boring and poorly done Al Gore movie. Different computer. Turn it on before leaving the store room. Works. Carry all crap to class room (1/2 km). Connect all cables. Insert DVD. Error. Software does not have converter to play this media. Go #%@& yourself, human. I had to borrow a laptop from one of the students to finally play the bloody thing. This is not okay. |
what a bitch.

I was just visiting my sister. Her neighbor's son is one of the peanut-allergic boys who was at my nephews birthday party recently. What's upsetting me is that her just turned 2 year old child was found unresponsive in his crib on Thursday.... he was diagnosed with ADEM today.

I know this is bad, but what is ADEM?

From Wiki
Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is an immune mediated disease of the brain.[1][2][3] It usually occurs following a viral infection but may appear following vaccination, bacterial or parasitic infection, or even appear spontaneously. As it involves autoimmune demyelination, it is similar to multiple sclerosis, and is considered part of the Multiple sclerosis borderline[4][5] diseases. The incidence rate is about 0.8 per 100,000 people per year.[6]. Although it occurs in all ages, most reported cases are in children and adolescents, with the average age around 5 to 8 years old.[7][8][9] The mortality rate may be as high as 5%, full recovery is seen in 50 to 75% of cases, while up to 70 to 90% recover with some minor residual disability.[10] The average time to recover is one to six months. ADEM produces multiple inflammatory lesions in the brain and spinal cord, particularly in the white matter. Usually these are found in the subcortical and central white matter and cortical gray-white junction of both cerebral hemispheres, cerebellum, brainstem, and spinal cord,[11] but periventricular white matter and gray matter of the cortex, thalami and basal ganglia may also be involved. When the patient suffers more than one demyelinating episode, it is called Recurrent disseminated encephalomyelitis[12] or Multiphasic disseminated encephalomyelitis[13](MDEM). |
Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis. Sometimes call Post infectious or post vaccination encephalomyelitis.

The good news is that there is a good chance that your friends son will recover fully. I hope this is the case. His parents must be out of their minds right now. :(

:( :(
friend got mamogram today, more lumps discovered, looks bad, biopsy rescheduled for tomorrow because it will take 4 hours. No biopsy today means she didn't need me today. Tomorrow she does, but I can't be there.... This stupid disease needs nailing. It takes too many good people and seems (to me) to be on the increase This woman has the healthiest diet I have ever seen, she's beating herself up over being a smoker for a couple of years at Uni. fuck it. |
