Diseases & Conditions - 3 December 2007

My name is Fiona and my best friend has cancer. Its called Malignant Mesothelioma. It is extremely deadly, really rare, and most people only live 24 months after diagnosis. But because it took her doctors so long to diagnose, they are predicting she only has three months. I have known this person almost my whole life and I love her so so much.

I want to do something really special for her, something that will show her how much i love her and how much i have appreciated my life with her. This news is fairly new to me, so i don't have a real clear idea of what i should do. What would you do?

i find it funny that our secular culture says abstinence doesn't work (when in fact that makes no sense, since it is impossible for people who are really abstaining from sex until marriage to pass SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED diseases if they DO NOT HAVE SEX)

Now, reports are that STD's are up, including HIV. Even with the promotion of condoms. And we have our immoral culture to thank for this.

I'm 15 and I'm a male. I've noticed a red bump on my rear-end that has been there for about 3 days. It's rigid to the touch and it dosen't itch or isn't in pain. I had the same thing in that same area about a month ago. Could it be herpes or a cyst? I hope to god it's not herpes.

I have a chest cold. I am miserable, my chest hurts a lot, I have a mild fever, I am VERY tired and my whole body hurts along with that, what can I do? I have to go to school becuase I have already missed too many days, and I don't want to miss tomorrow. Our Biology class is going to the zoo with the seniors. I'll accept anything, I know there are no overnight cures, but I'd like to get to feeling better as soon as I can. :)
