What's the story behind Venus? She's quite beautiful.
I always use sunblock and I exercise an hour EVERY day. I also use glycolic acid
monthly(70%) and weekly I scrub my face with aspirin dissolved in water. I am 50. I don't have fine wrinkles but I do have deep nasio/labal lines and around my lip area from drinking with straws!
Hi,
I just wanted to "cheer you on". My 20year old son and I both have mild Asperger's. when I was 18, my daughter was born with Down's syndrome and Autism. She was too weak to nurse, so I had to pump my breasts until she was 3 months old, then several different formulas before finding the right one. She passed away in 2003. I know that Asperger's is very hard on the Non-Asperger's spouse. Take care
I was born 2 1/2 months premature and weighed only 2 lbs, 12oz. I was not touched or held for 3 months because I was in an incubator. I couldn't go home until I weighed 5 lbs. I was not a cuddly child. As I got older, I didn't show affection without feeling awkward. I didn't feel I could communicate with my mother because I felt she didn't understand ME. I have intimacy problems even now. Twenty years ago my son was born. I took him everywhere with me. I shared my life, with him. I breast fed him until he was 2 years old. He was a very healthy child. He never had the common childhood illnesses. He always shared his feelings with me, never fearing me and has always treated me with much respect. He is much more confident than I ever was in my life, plus he grew up tall.....I am only 5'2", he is almost 6'tall! I would not have breast fed past the age of 2 years. I don't believe the child should be old enough to remember it.
She looks very dehydrated....like a mummy. It's not a healthy look. I think she could star in some horror movies without the aid of makeup!
OMG! It's a "Mini-Cooper"!
This experience I will never forget. I was in line at Walmart when my extremely disabled daughter had an epileptic seizure, which caused her to slide out of her wheelchair on to the floor. I was trying to lift her back onto the chair, but she was dead weight. The people around us were purposely looking away. Some even walked over to another line! There was a Mexican family just coming in. The dad saw me struggling and though he spoke no English, by his gesture he was asking if it was OK for him to pick my daughter up. I will always remember this man's kindness. Since then my daughter has passed away. She touched many lives.
Mine said that I lean slightly toward European American. I believe I was confused when the sides were switched. I don't see myself preferring any race over another.
I understand your situation. My now 20 year old son has Asperger's, as do I. School was a nightmare for us because Asperger's is a spectrum disorder. My son and I were belittled by the middle school faculty, me for not disciplining my son for fearing school, and he for pulling the "wool over my eyes" by deceiving me! He is getting his GED this summer.
I am feeling extreme anger towards the adults involved! My son has Asperger's syndrome and in middle school he was bullied not by other students, but two of his teachers and the principal who's remedy for my son's school phobia was for her to pick him up personally, because she believed that he had me fooled! I too had social phobia when I was in school, it's real and hard to live with as a child.
From my own experience in 1979, being a 17 year old virgin who never dated, I was fearful of boys my own age because I was warned that they only "want one thing". I was naive and didn't think anyone could ever love me. Somehow, word got out that I was a virgin then I was being pursued by older guys in their 20s. I didn't have the necessary social skills to handle this situation. My mother was emotionally unavailable when it came to my problems. She allowed me to date and marry a guy who was 8 years my senior. I don't think being so public with one's sexuality is wise. It can attract predators.
My mom was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer the first part of September 2005. She was afraid of death and wanted to be comatose when death became imminent. I was chosen to stay with her in her home to make sure she'd feel no suffering. I was a volunteer for a hospice in my home town, so I knew that patients are given morphine delivered by a pump that is controlled by the patient. It lessens the fear and gives dying patients a sense of control. My mom lived in a small rural area, so she didn't get what I would call proper palliative care. The cancer spread into her stomach which made it impossible to keep her pain meds down. I requested that she be put on the morphine pump. The nurse was a very argumentative every time I requested the pump. She told my mom and all the family that Mom would go into a coma from her kidneys and liver shutting down. No such luck. At 10pm she began having panic attacks. The medication to calm her did nothing. She cried in pain for 5 hours, the nurse gave her an injection for anxiety which calmed her just long enough for her to pull me close and she demanded that I get her gun and shoot her. Naturally, I didn't. She held on to me with her eyes fixed on mine. She took her last breath at 3am Christmas Eve. I will never forget it, I see her eyes when I look in a mirror. I feel guilty because I couldn't be demanding enough to the nurse. I couldn't take away the suffering that she was afraid of. She died in a really bad way.
My ex-husband had some friends whom I had an aversion to. Something about them caused a cold chill up my spine. They were all women who claimed they could read future events as well as revealing a person's past life. Everyone there had great interest in being read, except for me. After trying to "tap into my energy", one of the women threw her hands up in despair and said,"It's no use, she is a closed book." I believe in God. I don't think God wants us to open our minds to mediums or "metaphysical ministers"
If there is a Heaven where our loved ones have moved on; why would they want to know about all the terrible things that just keep getting more evil as time passes? They would get no rest from Earthly woes.
