I was the sole caretaker for my mother in law when she has Altzheimer's, and my dad when he had Parkinson's. Dad developed a brain tumor, so the last month was even harder. This was one after the other without much of a break in between. How long after they passed away did it take you to deal with it all emotionally?

As I said above, elderly relative had knee replacement surgery and did really well. Just recently she was in the pool at the beach and it was particularly rough and she hurt the knee. The doctor said the knee is fine but she has soft tissue damage and nerve damage. He has not given her any idea how long it will take to get better or if it will get better. Not even a suggestion about what to do. She is very discouraged and now her movement is worse than before the surgery.

I dont drink hardly at all, maybe, 3 times a year, if any, but why do I feel uncomfortable going to drinking parties. Whenever I'm there I feel wierd, its kind of hard to describe. It seems like I have to impress, or do something to get attention, not that I'm starved for attention or anything like that, just that I feel like I gotta do something I dont think other people are looking down on me for not doing anything

I've altered my diet removing fast food, fried food, most sweets & junk food. I generally eat the following:
Yogurt, granola bars, fruit, eggs, salad, tuna or turkey sandwich, grilled cheese, chicken, stir-fry, boca burger, sometimes pasta, sides of broccoli or corn, fat-free or sugar free pudding,100 calorie snack packs, granola bars, or wheat thins.

Every now & then I may have something like potatoes or oven-baked fries, rice, or pad thai. I've increased my water intake & milk/dairy intake.

I do cardio 4+ times a week, atleast 45 minutes or until I burn 800 cals, whichever happens last. Alternating between the ArcTrainer/Elliptical & the treadmill, & occasionally the stationary bike. I do ab excercises atleast 4 times a week and I started taking HydroxyCut.

I've lost a couple of pounds but haven't seen any changes in my abs. I weigh 120 now so I don't know how much more I can or should lose.

What am I doing wrong? What else should I be doing?

a guy fingered me & his penis was exposed, but it never penetrated me. this was my first time with any kind of sexual act. it happened 3 days before my period was supposed to start, and now more than a week later, my period still has not come. is it possible that somehow i could be pregnant? or since this was my first sexual encounter, could it have thrown off my period? i've really been stressing out about this. i have not attempted to take a pregnancy test because i don't really see how that could've happened. i am not on the pill. i've been having symptoms of pms also. i know this sounds like a really weird situation, but i just need some advice. i'm really worried.

The ENT doctors said my 5 years old daughter has enlarge tonsils and adenoid. They suggest that her tonsils should be remove.
But from what I read everywhere from the internet, nowdays tonsils are known good to prevent bacteria from entering the mouth, enlarge tonsils should shrink by itself by the age of 12.

Now, I am confuse whether to listen to my doctors or decide according to the little knowledges I have. I`m worried about the operation at her young age. Somebody please advice.

My daughter has not much problems, only that she could not pronounces Nasal Letters like M/N properly and she likes to breath by her mouth when sleeping but not once that she sleeps snoring.

Are the doctors in my country using the old techniques?

Can enlarge tonsils cause any worse illness?
