In Reply to: credit card debt relief - stressed

that filing for personal bankruptcy would be better.....no hassle, debt completely is wiped away and a friend of mine did it and now 5 years later he has credit cards, but uses them and pays off FULL balance each month, and has just gotten a car. He said it was the best thing he ever did. I am also looking for a way out from under my mountain of debt and have been talking to various people,,,i think I am gonna do the BR route.... I am way over 45,000.

I was under the impression...
that she had done the surgery, but I really don't follow it all that closely because I don't find a woman having a baby all that spectacular. I have done it once and am about to again--although if I could get the money that she/he gets for appearances, I might tell some stupid story, too.

my impression was that it was extreme
overuse of laxatives - don't know of other causes but you might ask for a review of the slides by someone else (assuming diagnosis was made by biopsy - otherwise I don't think they could be that sure).

I get the impression she's expressing more anxiety
here (as in venting and getting emotinos out) than she is emoting to her son.

I was under the impression they would have you nurse till the child is 5.
