explorations @explorations (1712) • United States 14 Jan 09

When I was 19, my father had breast cancer and had to have a double mastectomy (I think I spelled that wrong). I learned that, when a father has breast cancer, their daughters have a 20% greater risk of contracting this disease....

A Gift Or A Bribe...

twoey68 @twoey68 (13627) • United States 31 Mar 09

Usually when you give a gift, it’s just that…a gift. No strings, no expectations of a gift in return, no owing…it’s just a gift. But what about ppl that want to put strings on gifts? Let’s say a friend comes into A LOT of money...

pinkpassion5 I would only ask for the loan back when the friendship ended just so I knew I would get my money back. An agreement was set in place for the payback but it did not happen. It was not a spiteful thing to request the repayment.

pinkpassion5 I used to use them all! Now I just check MSN for emails and I use Facebook to play scrabble with friends. I don't chat online anymore and it's lessened the stress I was once feeling when I was chatting all the time. It's truly a waste of my time and I'm glad I...

pinkpassion5 Yes it is. I'm sure we have all made a mistake and then made the same one with the same outcome. Hopefully it won't happen again and we finally learn.

BrunoMiguel @BrunoMiguel (3) 19 Feb 09

Hi all, This seems to becoming a huge problem amongst our society and I feel that help doesn't get to where is required most of the time. Some people shut themselfes in their house, their bedroom and don't talk to anyone about...

pinkpassion5 Hi there, I went through the same thing many years ago. I went to the doctor and after being examined I was told my left arch had fallen. I got orthodics for my shoes and it made a world of difference. The foot pain went away! Good luck!

The nerve of some people!

lilybug @lilybug (21107) • United States 5 Nov 08

pinkpassion5 You are not being harsh at all. "Way to go" for standing up for your child. I went through the same thing with my sons dad and it is not easy. My son is 15 and he hasn't seen his dad since he was 6. I would never send my son to see him because he is basically...
