Health - 18 July 2006

I have been diagnose that i may have an advanced stage of cancer. I have been carefully explain that no treatment to cure my disease. At best I may only have a year or less.

They encourage me to fight my disease, while no assurance that I can be cured but at least i will have a bit longer life. I feel that prolong my life for just few months longer is not enough coz I'm still very young.

Help me, how can i accept that i have no cure but only a prolong life at best?

What is with me?! I am 15 and am finding it seriously hard to sleep. It is effecting my schooling because I can't be bothered to get up in the morning and go to school, even if I do go to school I am too exhausted to do anything. I have tried working out what it could be down to;
--> I don't have that much caffeine
--> I'm not trying to sleep really early
--> I don't sleep during the day
--> It's not because of the heat because my room is cool
--> I have tried with the light off and on
--> It's not due to sound
--> I have tried reading previous/ listening to relaxing music/ boring myself to sleep but it doesn't generally work
--> I have a fairly good diet, so that wouldn't be it
--> I don't do much exercise but have done more to try and wear myself out

I can't think of anything else right now... But please any other suggestions of why I can't sleep and maybe ways to overcome it?

I went backpacking this weekend along the appalachian trail. Part of the trail had a really long good uphill grade that we hiked durring a rain storm with wind and everything. The wind was about 30 mph I would guess. On sunday my partner and I were pretty sore and all, but no more than I would have expected. Our packs were 32 pounds each.
On monday I noticed that my right leg just above my knee and to the right (outside) did not have as much sensation as it usually does, but I thought nothing of it. This morning I was shaving and really noticed that I did not have as much feeling there as I should. This evening my boyfriend did a needle test to check my feeling of sensations and pain. In an area about the size of a baseball I cannot really feel sensations or pain, and about a 4-6in. radius around is a reduced feeling of sensation and pain (as compared to my left leg). Please respond if you have had a similar experience or might know what this is. Thanks

I never understood why women jump at the chance to go to a medical doctor w/ just a mosquito bite or a headache and men avoid them like the plaque even with a severed arm. Are women really just wanting to meet a physician & marry him? Does going to the doctor give women a shopping high?

If someone wasnt embaulmed(sp?) can their bodies start up again and of course, they'd be brain dead and all that but can the body just start up again even if for a few seconds?

I'm getting a cavity filled tomorrow, and the one thing I'm worried about is the novacaine shot. I've had a lot of fillings in the past, but usually the shot wasn't really even that noticeable. Last time however, it seemed more painful than usual. The filling itself doesn't really hurt, just the shot. Is there any way of making this less painful for me? Also, will taking some kind of pain reliever previous to the appointment help reduce the pain?
