I called in today and the boss said "dont feel bad when yo don't have a job anymore". i told him he couldn't fire me, i said i have a Doctors note. They cant fire me could they? We have FMLA plus I have a note from Dr.

He was single for 5 years prior to us meeting and I knew he looked at it before. One day I told him it made me feel like I was not good enough and that he needed something I could not provide. He told me that wasn't the case but that he would quit. He didn't look at it for the last 6 months (and yes I do know for sure he doesn't know how to clear it off) Tuesday I found traces of it on the computer I asked him about it and he told me that he couldn't lie to me and he told me the truth. Today he has admitted to me that he believes he has a problem but that he wants to get over it because he knows he will lose me if he doesn't . I was looking up thigns online for help but I'm trying to find stuff that I can help him with. He is a firm believer in God goes to bible studies and all so we have been praying about it but it seems to be somethign else I can do to help him.--Please no stupid answers- this is very rough for me and him as well and as of right now we dont wantprofessional service

You're in a public restroom (at work, say) and you have your period. You take your applicator tampon out of the wrapper and then accidentally drop it on the floor. It's the only one you have. Would you still use it?

Ladies only to answer please! And no silly responses!

Doctors recommended that this fleshy mass be removed from the eye. It has caused the eye to bulge and water-at times the eye becomes inflamed. Has anyone suffered from this condition or know of anyone who has? Was surgery performed? If so, was it successful? Did the mass grow back?

Probiotics contain "friendly" bacteria, and are said to help with intestinal health. You can buy it as a pill, or get it in yogurt and other food products. "Healthy digestion, vitality, good immune resistance."

What are the benefits and risks of eating food with probiotics? Do probiotics really help with intestinal health?
