  okay...so saturday, my mom goes back to the hospital here because she's having labored breathing and chest pains.

  they admit her to the hospital because she's also in a-fib.

  the doctor thinks she's got fluid still in her chest from previous procedure's fuckup.

  Hi,

  I'm so sorry to hear your mother had to go back into the hospital, but I'm happy for you and your family that she is ok. How is your wife? Sometimes, when we're stressed, even the little things can freak you out.

  Take care,

  Sorry this happened to you, Nic, but glad your bank is taking care of it.

  I NEVER put my SSN on anything anymore. It's amazing how many people ask for it that don't need it, doctor's and dentists offices, various other agencies. I leave that spot blank, and I have never once been refused service because of it.

  I go to one gas station only, and use my Amex. I check my credit card websites weekly, and also my bank accounts several times a week online. I put a fraud alert on my credit account because after donating blood to the Red Cross, I received a letter telling me a lap top that possibly had some of my identifying information had been stolen.

  It's rough out there, you can't be too careful.

  COULD YOU KILL SOMEONE?

  by Mary in

  and under what circumstances?

  would you kill someone if they molested your child or your spouse?

  what about drug dealers or terrorists?

  Yes.

  Hurt my son, and you must die. I mean real hurt (molest, deliberately maim, etc). Hit my son, and you will get the beat down of your life, but you'll live through it

  I would do whatever it takes to defend myself and my loved ones. And I am talking immediate danger, not plotting to ambush someone. But, instinctive, protective reaction?

  Yes, with no guilt.

  i was adopted into a jw family in southern california.

  my birth mother gave me up after 6 months (the terms mom & dad refer to my adoptive/real parents).

  she gave me up due to the fact that she already had a three year old boy, and back in the late sixties it was not as socially acceptable to be a single mother.

  Wow, what a difference news sources make. The story I heard on ABC was very different from the one in the first message, and the one on CNN (which I find a more credible news source than The Mirror) does not mention a fractured skull, and points out that a doctor examined the baby in person at their home the day of the accident. I'm not defending Britney or her husband, they are total low lifes, but I think this is a good example of how we have to watch our news sources. Here's the CNN story:

  MALIBU, California (AP) -- Child welfare officials and a sheriff's deputy visited Britney Spears' home in California because her infant son was accidentally dropped from a high chair, People Magazine and the Los Angeles Times reported.

  Six-month-old Sean Preston fell April 1 as his nanny was lifting him from the high chair and something in the chair snapped, Star magazine reported Tuesday. The infant slipped from her arms and fell, bruising his head on the floor, the magazine said.

  People magazine and the Los Angeles Times also reported the incident on Wednesday.

  Though a doctor examined the baby at the house, Spears and husband Kevin Federline took the baby to the emergency room to have him examined six days later, the report said.

  Spears' attorney, Martin Singer, said in a statement that the hospital made a report to the Department of Children and Family Services as required by state law.

  "DCFS immediately responded and determined there was no problem and no reason to open a formal investigation. They determined that the parents weren't involved in the injury and nothing was improper within the home," he said.

  The Los Angeles DCFS and the Lost Hills sheriff's station declined to give details of Saturday's visit, and would not say if there was an ongoing investigation. DCFS public-affairs director Louise Grasmehr didn't return a phone message left Tuesday at her Los Angeles office. The department routinely refuses to discuss cases, citing confidentiality laws.

  "It's a very standard, routine patrol request," Lt. Debra Glaskides said Tuesday. "We just roll out with them. We stood by, we took no action, no report or anything."

  In February, DCFS visited Spears' home after publication of photographs showing the 24-year-old singer driving with then 4-month-old Sean Preston in her lap, rather than in a car seat as required by law.

  Spears later apologized, saying she did it because of a "horrifying, frightful encounter with the paparazzi."

  I have watched this show religiously since the very first one, but this season STINKS! There is no stand out, always dependable performer, and the song choices could not be worse.

  I read a book while I'm watching, otherwise I would be bored to tears.

  Katherine has a nice voice, but she's so smarmy I can't stand watching her. Mandisa and Chris have wonderful voices, but can be boring, and don't really have the "look".

  I can't wait for this season to be over.

  Els,

  I am in a similar situation, but without the good years of trust that you shared. My thoughts on the subject (which may not match yours) are honesty is everything, and once you lie about one thing, I have to wonder what else you are lying about.

  I think you should do two things A) talk to him again, but delve deeper into what the sites are giving him that he feels is missing. B) Decide how important it is to you, and ensure he understands whatever consequences there will be for the continuation of his actions. If you really think it's no big deal (but I agree with the others, if you didn't think it was, you probably wouldn't have posted the situation), then leave it alone. If you DO think it's a big deal, protect yourself. Get an exam to ensure you are healthy (in case he has taken it to another level) and decide what is required of the relationship to stay. Counseling could be a great start.

  I believe I am headed for divorce, so it may seem like I shouldn't be giving advice, however, if I had been strong years ago, I would not find myself in this situation now. Take control.
