Odds are SO in her favor. When they find it is benign, that can be good for opening up talk of options and tests to help prevent it from ever being cancer. Easy for me to say, but much too early to get scared.

I have two older brothers and lived with each of them at one time or another back in the day. They are manly men, but they were so private and decent. If anything, I was the trollop. He is a pig and she is just as bad. I don't thing beating around the bush will help...he's already doing that : )

extreme sports enthusiast. Single and loving it.

having said that...this gif is hilarious.

What's sexy in a man? One who doesn't regard women as cardboard cutouts, and have a "favorite type". Keep in mind, I am a big fan of men. I can find something hot about most of them. But I also find that what they SAY they like, and what actually wobbles their knees, are often two different things. Using the example of…

In terms of falling in love, age has no bearing. The heart wants what it wants. It may present a challenge if you are together long term. But who cares?

As soon as something has even a TINY bit of fading or any sort of imperfection, I get rid of it. Barring that, I keep stuff indefinitely.

I happen to have a 19 year old daughter living at home, working and going to school - and I could imagine her doing exactly what you did. In fact, I have had to rein in her generosity throughout her childhood. At this point, she is paying rent. We are saving it for her to get an apartment around her 20th birthday next…

Yes, you are welcome to judge anything and everything. Just temper that with the fact that it is your viewpoint and therefore who cares?

Bonding Empowering any of those motivational speaker trendy bs terms

The new Cacique wireless lace bra has changed my life. Wacoal also makes a superior product.

Random works of art.

er, uh. Or just maybe some humans are not necessarily built to be excited about riding the same hobby horse for 50 years. If you only have one business model, and refuse and judge all others, your business may fail. Also I know some kind hearted people who found themselves outside their marriages, and lotsss of d bags who…

Yes! And may I add that young Joey or Josephine may not require a $200K University education. The idea is to make them employable adults...NOT impress the neighbors.

Save your blood for yourself or a loved one who needs it. Unless you have a rare type, there is an abundance and you don't have to feel tortured.

Fractured my wrist, falling on morning dew, taking a puppy out to pee.

Chili Mac. Just now. For breakfast.

Lots of great points here. PLEASE also teach them to be responsible with money and not live beyond their means. WAY too much entitlement around these days.

Okay guys. This has been helpful and interesting to me. The surgeon did think it was indicated, though I have NO stones, just "markedly decreased functionality". I'm having it done this Tuesday. For the record, I have never been more than 10 lbs overweight (I am at MFP to see that perimenopause does not make me fat), have…

Thanks so much for the frank information, Pepper! I'm usually a decisive gal, but this has me perplexed...it's so irreversible!! My gut (so to speak) is telling me to hold off. But, I'm going to do exactly what the doctor suggests, which is out of character too lol. I like to ask them "if it were you, or your spouse, what…

Thank you all for sharing your stories. I've had the tests and, though I have no stones, I have sludge. My gallbladder is working at 16% compared to a normal 35%. I see a surgeon tomorrow and have plenty of questions. I know in my heart that it is elective for me and don't know what to do. On the silver lining side, I AM…

:love: :love: :love:

I guess my question is why it is okay to say "this is why no one likes our country" after the actions of one or a few morons. But, we are appalled at the idea of lumping all Muslims together for the heinous actions of some?? The US takes it's powerful position seriously, and I think their are few things ruder than joining…

Boston Terrier. Pure comedy

I am a published poet who finds you to be a pretentious *kitten*.

Empathy is largely a natural human emotion. I wouldn't spend a lot of time training it, unless they are sociopathic in which case you're sunk

This X 100. And I also support the mom who thwarts her son's relationships with girls who are tacky on social media. I have two daughters, and hope they aspire to run with their own class. They will and should be judged by the effort they put forth to be appropriate. To say it is sexist is silly. Young men are not prone to…

Creative problem-solving and that kindness matters but don't take any crap.

whatever oneplus is...okay. And not awkward at all.:drinker:
