    Post-Cancer Surgery Eating Help

    It is really scary and was an eye opener for me. Every year I have gone in for health and wellness checks and I was more relieved I did when they found it in my arm but thank goodness I went in. I'm so glad you are getting through this, the main thing is to have support. I put in a friend's...

    Moving to NY (from Athens, Greece... yes, a big step I know!!!)

    I don't live in New York but have moved around. You'll probably want to get online if you haven't already and check out the living area around where you want to go to school so you don't have a huge commute. I'm sure they have a good transportation system if you need it. It sounds like there is...

    Flat screen TV dead

    My husband bought a 65 inch mitsubishi projection lcd hi def tv. Within 9 months the first halogen lamp went out. Maybe it could be your lamp needs replaced? Our light was flashing yellow on the tv but we couldn't get it to do anything until we replaced the lamp. I hope this helps.

    How do you deal with cancer death?

    Hi Wendy I am so sorry about your Dad. With cancer it is a painful emotional roller coaster. I was like you (1993-my Mom was diagnosed after surgery in 92 with pancreatic cancer) I became pregnant and my son was born March 26, 2003, my aunts came through and took pictures of my boy, taking them...

    bags under the eyes

    Hi, I am certainly not an expert but I can tell you from what I read that having extra sodium can create fluid retention in your body as well as how much water you are drinking and how much sleep you are getting.
