Since his enablers haven’t been able to get through to him about what a jerk he has been, perhaps this will clue him in?
Secondly, I find “he’s just 19″ a horrible excuse. I know a lot of 19 year olds that are amazing people (one just got back from working on the Clinton global water project). My uncle died in war at 19 years old. I think people insult the many wonderful 19 year olds when they lower their standards to make excuses for spoiled pop stars.
It’s ok! No worries, I know we are dealing with some sensitive words in this thread. :) Thanks trent!
I keep trying to post about the 50/50 odds thing, and it isn’t even showing up. I have tried 3 times now, and this is kind of important info about the differences between the situations!
Wow, I have tried to post this like 3 times now! I guess I will use some asterisks…
The reason that she might have decided to get the 0varies removed even though there is only a 50/50 chance of c@ncer is that ovarian cancer is very very hard to detect. They do not currently have a test for this type of c@ncer. There isn’t an equivalent to the p@p sme@r test for ovarian cancer. Usually it is discovered only after symptoms are shown, and by then it has usually spread to other areas. You can get an ultra sound to see if there are lumps on the 0vary, and if so the next step is a biopsy. Bre@st cancer and cervical c@ncer can be detected much earlier because of technology, when they are not yet big enough to be felt or seen as a bump.
0varian c@ncer is very deadly because it is so hard to detect.
I posted a version of this earlier, but it didn’t even show up and say “pending approval” after I posted…

Gillian, I appreciate that you bring up how difficult these decisions are. These surgeries are a big deal and making a decision one way or the other is such a mental and emotional stress. It might seem like an easy choice for some, but actually putting that decision in action is very scary. Folks in this position need a lot of support from family and friends!
You might be able to qualify for federal assistance when the new health care exchanges go online in the fall.
I feel like an idiot because I just noticed that…but you totally got there first! Good eye! :D
OMG….I just noticed the clouds behind her frame her ling wings!
The reason that women wait to tell about being pregnant is because miscarriages happen, even to celebs. EVERY woman has the right to share news about her pregnancy when she is ready, no matter what her job is.
