I have just been told that I have cancer of the cervix and that I need to have surgery! Right before I found out I was engaged to be married but right now everything is at a stand still because of this...How serious of a sitution is this because I am scared to death of having surgery?

I can't concentrate either and have a really bad memory too.& i'm just 19! My ambition is to be a writer I've got tons of ideas but horrible writing skills. Tell me what can I do to become smart.

He was in the hospital in May of 2005 and told me that he was positive on my daughters prom day, from then on I was getting tested, and always came up negative. I had tests done every 3 months 4 a year and finally 1 yr. later the test came back positive on 6/5/06. I was devastated!!!! When I approached him with the results he laughed in my face! Of course I had to tell my children, who hated him from day 1 & didn't want us together from jump, but I didn't listen to them, I really loved him with all of my heart & was even willing to do anything 2 b with him, & he turned out 2 b the worst thing that ever happened to me. So far I am healthy enough that I don't have 2 take any medicine 4 it. & then after a while I found out that a lot of people knew that he had it and no one else warned me. Now he is going around screwing other women in the Projects where we live even a woman that has full blown AIDS who is a crackhead whore of the hood who he was with when I first took notice of him.

i have pretty much no luck with females, with virtually any that something happened with were drunk and then regretted it later when i talked to them for future dates. i realise i am not very good looking, but this constant failure has in turn just made me feel like i have no purpose at times. other times when i dont think about it however, i feel fine and enjoy myself. when i feel down though, i have lately thought about committing suicide, and the best way to do it. i do feel at times that i could do it, but then to think of my mum at her sons funeral will instantly stop me. does this mean that im depressed, or is it just sort of a down period, and everyone feels like that some of the time? i also smoke weed a bit, but that helps me cope when i feel down. is this fairly normal?

How many pounds dehydrated do you need to be until you start to notice real hits on your daily energy, sex drive, and other functions? If someone was 1lbs or 2lbs dehydrated of necessary water weight on a consistant basis, what would that do to them? How about 5lbs dehydrated of necessary water weight on a consistant basis 10lbs? 15lbs?

One of my wisdom teeth are coming in but I don't have any dental insurance or $ to pay for an appointment right now, but I heard that unless they are causing you pain they don't "have" to be removed?

Vets say that if a dog bit someone (and you're not sure if the dog has rabies or not), it should be quarantined and observed for 10 days. If it becomes sick or ill, then it could be rabid.

My question is: Why would a dog with rabies become ill within days after biting someone? What's happening to it?
