		<description>Good luck with your surgery! Estrogen seems to be the culprit in having them grow back. I was told not to consume soy or dairy products and red meat, note anything that contains hormones that will add to your own.... I hope this helps! And again . . . be well!</description>

		<description>For Lagunasweetie - Why do you want to marry this man? If he treats you this badly just dating, marrying him will make things worse.  He sounds like a narcissistic love addict type - at least from what you are saying.  It&#039;s hard to pull away from people we love or think we love but I think it&#039;s necessary if they detract more from your life than enhance it.  As his wife you would feel more obligated to stick it out and so far it sounds like it&#039;s not going well.  I&#039;ve never seen marriage solve problems that existed pre-marriage.

In general I think that string-along relationships never work out as healthy relationships.  If a guy has been too comfortable with you or taking you for granted or doesn&#039;t want to break up but won&#039;t commit... I think it&#039;s unlikely that it will somehow become a healthy relationship through marriage.  Sometimes we might want to get married but we have to think of our own needs too... no one wants to get stuck with a loser.</description>

		<description>As always I am amazed at the way your writing touches on every point. Like a stream wetting everything in it&#039;s path nothing escapes saturation.

K and S show us many things in this story. More of a story of weakness than of strength. Yet what strength it takes to beat cancer and also to stay with someone you no longer want to be with. Many points of view to argue here. 
Trajedy does not so clearly define us. What is said is often not done, and when  they do combine it does not necessarily define the person as much as it defines their reaction to a situation. I Know through the magic of hindsight i wish i could have chosen better, the things I had done in many a cicumstance.

Love the story it was great and thought provoking</description>

		<description>Having surgery next week. I have 5 total, so reading this helps ease anxiety although I&#039;m pretty sure I will be so nauseous from fear next week bright an early as the first patient of the day. Btw, I heard they grow back. One friend took out a grapefruit and in 1 yr another grapefruit formed...trying to find out why it grows in some women more that others, my sisters, aunts, mom, grandma never had them unless I can say I&#039;ve been living a high stress life most of my life and maybe stress may be the biggest factor in all this.</description>

		<description>Interesting how your writing could remind me of things I notice but  had forgotten regarding the three characters. It made the view in my head sharper. Excellent. I saw the thick brown belt before you wrote so when I read it I cracked up. great job.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m so glad you put that ? mark at the end. It seems way to lonely here in the Universe for me to no have some kind of God. I guess I&#039;m different than you. I was never smart enough to blame God. I just blamed myself, my mother, my ex-, and over and over - myself. So the reason I&#039;m glad you put the ? there is that I think the door to a happier explanation of God is still open for you and I love you and want you to feel overwhelming happiness alot to the time and useful pain when you have to.</description>

Psychopaths are not just criminals.  There is another group they call &quot;successful psychopaths&quot; who never break laws or go to jail.  The man I was involved with months ago scored higher than 85% on the test.  Try it out....</description>
