Reality behind the doors of Chemo at xmas

Pictured: a cancer patient smiling

I have had to have Chemo twice in 19 years, my mum had to have chemo as well. So whilst I am no expert. I certainly have seen and lived through a lot.
It appears that people that have never had chemo or could never possibly understand what it is like! Have no idea;
those of us that have walked down that road know it's many days of ups and downs very similar to a roller coaster ride, or a classic scene from an Indiana Jones movie.
This last Chemo going into the cancer ward was a bit of an eye opener. It's done in a day ward so you can get out in half a day. They said don't be happy or look like you are having fun here, because I like to laugh and have fun. People are dying in there, well I say they may want a laugh, a drink or something to eat. My friend Karen came to chemo with me at xmas I had promised a couple of the old ladies in my ward we would have xmas celebration. Karen and I went shopping got tarts lollies and cakes. Would you believe that the nurses put them in their room they were having a party. Karen saw them eating them, I wanted to celebrate with my cancer friends (patients) xmas...seem's you are not allowed be happy or celebrate in the cancer ward as you will die.
Please people wake up, be cautious how you treat us....
I was still smiling, still drinking still going out and most of us do. Life must go on

"Hard nipples" - areola or nipple skin

Someone once wrote"... when i get really cold, or get goosebumbs all over my body, the whole things really scrunch up, like, my entire areola scrunches itself up into a wrinkled little mound. it looks really weird and ugly, and i haven't ever seen other people's breasts do it. what is wrong with my areola/nipples??" The answer: Well nothing is wrong. This is what my areola does too. It's a normal reaction to the coldness or to irritation / stimulation. The little muscles in the areola do a similar goosebump thing as your other skin can do. People often call this phenomenon "hard nipples". Also note that skin on areola has less feeling or sensation to it than other areas of your body. If the areola was very sensitive, then breastfeeding would probably be quite uncomfortable because the baby pulls and tugs it! The nipples are sensitive but the sensitivity changes with hormonal changes, such as occur at mestrual cycle or pregnancy. Also this v...

Monumental cleavage alert! Did Natalie Portman get a boob job?

Black Swan Oscar winner Natalie Portman has sparked feverish debate about whether or not she's had a boob job, after she appeared on camera at an American football game looking bustier than before. The 31-year-old, who gave birth to son Aleph in June 2011, was watching the game in Austin, Texas during a break from shooting the as-yet-untitled new Terrence Malick film. With co-star Michael Fassbender by her side, a newly blonde Natalie was spotted by the cameras during the ABC broadcast. While it could very well be a push-up bra, or a consequence of breast-feeding her bub, Twitter fans immediately speculated about the star's potentially enhanced assets. "Natalie Portman @ the Texas-Baylor game ... boob job? Looks like it!" one user wrote. "Wait a second, did Natalie Portman get a boob job? Is she pregnant? On the sidelines of Texas game and #wow," another tweeted. Comments on the YouTube clip ran along the same lines, albeit many of them ...
