My sister-in-law’s mother just found out she has breast cancer, what can I do, besides pray(already doing that).

They live in New Orleans and I live in Houston, Tx, so we do not live close. I am going to New Orleans for Thanksgiving, though.
Thanks for the prayers!

I’m using a donor and hope to announce either at Thanksgiving or Christmas. Clever ideas? This will be the second grandchild in the family.

I HAVE A STEYE ON MY EYE AND I HAVE HAD IT SINCE THANKSGIVING. HOW CAN I GET IT 2 GO AWAY.

Alrighty, so I have a pretty decent amount of knowledge pertaining to weight loss and physical fitness, but right now I’m not sure what to do. Im 23, 5’1 and weigh 135 lbs; I have been on a diet most of my young adult life and have gone back and forth with weight…down to 118 and back to where I am now. I want to maintain a healthy lifestyle with exercise and healthy food consumption, but the calorie counting really throws me off. According to my BMR, I should be consuming about 2000 calories a day! I just do not eat that much…ever! Well, unless it’s Thanksgiving, in which case that turkey never stood a chance. On average, I would say that I generally consume about 1000-1200 calories a day, eating healthy and not starving. If I need to cut calories to drop weight, how far should I go down? Ive heard people say that less than 1000 calories a day can be dangerous…and I dont want my body to go into starvation mode, but there is no way I can eat enough healthy food to jump to that many calories, especially without GAINING weight. So whats a girl to do? And yes, I exercise…not everyday, but usally at least 3 or 4 times a week for about 45 minutes (cardio and body resistance). Please give me some input….thanks!

Ok so I have been sick since getting back to college from thanksgiving break. My symptoms are: I have had a fever for 4 days. It started on the first day with a sore throat. The second day was a little better as far as my throat and now it doesn’t hurt at all. On the third day my apartment building had a bad water heater that kept me up all night. When I got up in the morning I had a bruised eye lid and it is still sore. I am not sure if I should go to the college health center (which is not the greatest) or go to the hospital. Any ideas? Im thinking I have a cold or the flu or something.
