My granny is in her eighties and her joints are getting weaker each day, especially her two kneecaps, which are really hurting. It really pains my heart to see her condition deteriorate, she used to be able to limp her way around, but now she can hardly walk......knee guards and health supplements for the ligament doesn't seem to work, or maybe this is juz something that the elderly have to bear with as they age......anyone out there with any experience care to share their solutions, or even offer me some things my granny can do, I would like to thank you beforehand because I really do not know what more I as a grandson can do to ease her pain......

I have been told there are two types of dark undereyes in existance. One is where if you get enough sleep and are healthy enough it'll go away. The other would be the kind that never does. At the age of 19, I have dark undereyes. I don't really sleep and I admit that they're a result of it. I was wondering if it's too late to try to get rid of them. I have tried sleeping enough for a day or two. Usually that doesn't work. The only other time was when I slept through a whole day or slept during strange hours. I once slept from 12:00 noon time to four o'clock and they dissappeared. So it's strange that they've went away even without enough sleep. could it be that it depends on the person and when their body rejuvenates themselves?

One night, my stupid boyfriend made me laugh so hard that I almost choked on my Slurpee. I've had my airway obstructed before, but this was the worst experience with it that I ever had. Even after I had dislodged the ice and syrup from my windpipe, my throat STILL hurt and it FELT like something was still caught in it. I had never had that sensation before last night, even though this was definitely not the first time that I had something stuck in my throat. I don't remember how long this lasted, but it was much longer than I would have expected....at least a few minutes, maybe more.

Can anyone explain...?

Like I said, last time I fell asleep, it was for 16 hours. I have no idea what's wrong... I have tried the whole put your alarm clock on the other side of the room at full blast thing, but that isn't working. I don't even hear my alarm clock... My parents try to wake me up in the morning, but I don't remember them ever coming into the room. All my doctor will tell me is to try harder, but I am. I want to get up. I hate sleeping... I want to get a job, but I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to wake up so I would get fired. Please help...
