I'm a wife, Mom to four, a poet, an artist, I write songs, enjoy hiking, camping, and swimming. I'm open minded, honest, and somewhat goofy. I love to laugh and I love the weird things in life.
I have been diagnosed with complicated migraines?
They at first thought I was having a stroke because the right side of my body would get numb and my speech is slow and slurred. All tests were negative and they say it is complicated migraines. Sometimes though, my head doesn't even hurt. Now, every night I wake up at some point with the numbness and slurred speech. The medicine that they gave me helps some but not enough.
Has anyone had anything similar and what helped?
2 AnswersPain & Pain Management9 years agoI know of a teenage girl that is pregnant from a 25-year-old man?
Does she notify someone, or what should be done? It was consentual, from my understanding.

2 AnswersPeople with Disabilities1 decade agoMy 11-year-old son is scared to pull his baby teeth and scared ot the dentist?
He did finally go yesterday but hated every minute at the dentist. He has many loose baby teeth and he will not pull them! He had this huge anxiety attack and if I even mention it again he has anxiety again.
Advice?
Thanks
1 AnswerDental1 decade agoOf course we need some sort of national health care. It is a human right, or should be.?
We could cut the military budget by a small fraction and pay for everyone! I don't like all of Obama's plan but at least he is trying.
It is all about the money involved, not about the average American. The drug companies, the insurance companies...
I am disabled but my husband works and has insurance (we pay over $400 every month for it) and many, many times in the last year we have had to do without enough food and medicine.
This summer I was so sick for weeks and no one could figure out what it was. Test after test and the insurance only paying for some of those. Finally, when our kids began passing out did we figure out (with the health dept) that it was methane and other gases from our septic system! This never showed up in any of those tests. Now I have thousands of dollars to pay.
My friend in New Zealand doesn't have to worry like this. He says it is wonderful health care too.
I have known so many people suffer for not having insurance and the fear alone can make the stress cause more health problems.
10 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoUS highest in gun violence, why?

Is it easy access to guns? Or is it a combination of many things? Ours is so much higher than anyone elses!
9 AnswersCurrent Events1 decade agoI suddenly had my heart rate go up to 240-no warning. I ended up in the ER and later the hospital. Why?
I didn't even know your heart could beat that fast! I do not smoke and only drink an occasional glass of wine and only 1 cup of coffee most days. They are still running tests but said they may never know why.
Has anyone done this?
5 AnswersHeart Diseases1 decade agoI wrote this song on Inauguration day. Thoughts?
Who Could Have Dreamed © January 20, 2009 by Cindy Prince
(Verse 1)
As the backs of the blacks
Slaved for a better day
As the prayers of the faithful
Prayed for a better way
As so many like him
Believed like MLK
We asked,
“Who could have dreamed?”
(V2)
As the wisdom of our fathers
Has spoken through the ages
As the once locked doors
Helped open all the cages
“Free at last! Free at last!”
Listen to the sages
Still we ask,
“Who could have dreamed?”
(Chorus)
Who could have dreamed,
even knowing what we’ve known?
Who could have dreamed,
after sowing what we’ve sown?
So let us hope,
like hope is just our own
Who could have dreamed....?
Who could have dreamed..…?
(V3)
As the past is forgotten
lies return to the dark
He brought us all together
Starting this unique spark
We can do so much together
And together make our mark
Still we ask,
“Who could have dreamed?”
(Repeat Chorus)

3 AnswersOther - Society & Culture1 decade agoObama supporters, is this how you feel today? Hopeful?
Hope
On this day four years ago I cried
I cried because I saw no hope
All I saw and felt was darkness and despair
Today I cry because there is hope
What seemed insurmountable isn’t
What seemed impossible wasn’t
We can see the light and the brightness it radiates
It can cross all borders, can expand all consciousnesses,
Can do all things through love and the hope it brings to all humankind
13 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhy do so many make Obama out as the devil?
Even John McCain said he is a distant family man-and he is! McCain is probably a decent guy too. I cannot tell you how many emails I have gotten that are just nuts! He isn't a Muslim, he isn't going to take away anyone's guns, and he is smart and stays calm during debates, etc.
I just do not get it. I guess it is all politics but geez I will be glad when this is over!
24 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoHow is the best way for us to help our bipolar teenager?
We are all under such stress with this and two major deaths recently as well. Last night she went into such a rage in the car and I couldn't walk away from her. She seems to try to push my buttons but it is so unlike her usual self that it is hard to even comprehend.
We've already been through so many counselors that were just terrible and right now all she takes is Lexapro.
All this and we are having to move-finacial woes too! Any advice?
Thanks!
4 AnswersMental Health1 decade agoSince when was Reagan a cowboy? That's what John McCain thinks. Wasn't he an actor?
"This is not the first time that I've seen a governor being questioned by some quote, "expert."'' McCain said. "I remember that Ronald Reagan was a cowboy.
Reagan may have played a cowboy, had a ranch where he rode a horse once in awhile but he wasn't any more a cowboy that W. is!
Does McCain think he couldn't say actor because that might remind someone of Obama or something?
Come on!
2 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhat's the highest gas prices you've seen since they jacked them up with this gouging?
Mine is $4.59 in northern Arkansas.
And this is with the price per barrel lower than it has been for some time- about $93 per barrel.
7 AnswersCurrent Events1 decade agoJohn McCain doesn't know how to use a commuter or send an email. Isn't he too old to be president?
This is 2008! I know people that are in their 80's that use it all the time!
It's not that hard, people!
He is too old and doesn't want to learn new things and he has a totally dumb chick to run with?
13 AnswersElections1 decade agoI understand why people are against abortion, but not for rape and incest. Why doesn't Ms. Palen agree?
Women who are raped and young girls that are victims of incest shouldn't have to deal with carrying a child for nine months!
My former roommate's half brother was a product of a violent rape. This was in the 50's and he was violent from the time he was born! He stabbed a man, was always in fights, and finally died in a bar brawl.
How was that better for anyone and society in general?
10 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoMy family and I hope to relocate to Ste. Genevieve, Missouri. Does anyone live there, or had lived there?
And what can you tell me about live there? How are the schools? Any info would be great!
1 AnswerOther - Home & Garden1 decade agoWhat does this dream mean?
I dreamed I was micro-size and was driving a vehicle that looked like the Jetson's car. I first began driving along the lines of my thumb-nail print and then I decided I wanted to go into my body and drive along my DNA (don't even know if that is possible)!
I've thought maybe it has to do with my DNA or my health in some way but not sure. It was cool but I wish I knew more why I dreamed it.
3 AnswersDream Interpretation1 decade agoMcCain and his memory-how can he be president if he keeps forgetting things?
Why couldn't he remember when asked yesterday how many homes he owns? It's either 6, 7, 8 or more-he's not sure but he will get back to us.
The other day he didn't remember that he and his mother sued his cancer-ridden ex-wife-but they did and there is a record of it.
What else doesn't he remember or what will he forget?
13 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhat is the strangest spam (clean only please!) email you've ever gotten?
I've had some odd ones-like "Jewish Singles" in your area (I'm not Jewish or single) but the other day beats the cake.
"Need a portable dance floor?"
Now what would I do with that? Carry it to the library where I work?
Put it in the yard?
So, who has had some interesting ones?
