I'm a wife & mom, 3 boys and a girl. I have a son with Down Syndrome and one with Autism. I love music, especially metal, but I love all kinds. I like reading, learning about different cultures & societies, science, medicine, art, poetry, all kinds of things. I enjoy helping people, so Answers is fun for me when I have a chance to sit down that long!

  • HELP! Is my corn snake dying or shedding?

    I just bought a baby corn snake, (exactly 1 week ago), and until yesterday it seemed to be doing great. I've kept the temp. & humidity at the right levels, and it has eaten once. It was fine, active and I was holding it every day. 2 nights ago, I tried to get it out to let it 'play', and it seemed very frightened, so I didn't force the issue. Then it went into it's hiding spot, curled up and didn't come back out as far as I know. Yesterday, it got a white 'glaze' over its eyes, & only moved when I touched it, but not that much. Today, it's whole body is kind of white looking, and now it's not moving at all, though it moved it's head to different spots when I'd look inside the 'cave'. It seems to have the same look as a snake who will shed, but nothing I've read says anything about it not moving, in fact I know they have to move to get the skin to come off. Please help, I don't want it to die!!

    Thanks!

  • I need a new sound card for my laptop, an HP Pavilion DV9700 series, model #dv9925nr...?

    First, what in your opinion, is the best (internal) sound card out there?

    Second, I've seen dozens of USB sound card adapters online, they say sound card & are just a few bucks. What are these for exactly? I've looked them up, but not finding what I want to know - would one of those get me some sound until I can purchase an internal card? (The card I have is completely shot).

    Thanks for the help!

  • How does a neurologist know what type of MS to diagnose?

    How can they tell the difference between the 4 types upon initial diagnosis? I can see how it would be done by following the progression, but otherwise I'm clueless, and my previous doctor didn't bother to explain.

  • Why do young guys want to look like girls?

    I keep seeing young guys and they seem to be trying to look like teenage girls. They have what look like girl hairstyles and are very thin and girls even seem to like this. Why are guys doing this and what happened to girls liking guys who look like guys?

  • We adpoted a dog who was apparently beaten with a leash. I can't walk him, he's too scared.How can I help him?

    I've really been worried about him, he's fine as long as I don't ry to put his leash on. He's a Cheasapeake Bay Retriever, and he's almost a year old. We adopted him after he had been running loose from a neighbor's house who had 3 pit bulls, so we really don't know what all has happened to him. Also, before went to bring him home from the pound, one of the workers let him escape. Then someone said he was vicious, (he is DEFINITELY not), and the police came and tasered him too. I'm afraid I am never going to be able to get him to trust me to walk him, though he does trust me and loves me in all other ways. But I have to figure out how to give him exercise! Sorry this is long, but my poor dog has had the roughest life. I hope someone can give me some good ideas. Nothing we have tried so far has worked. Thanks!!
