      I lost my Daddy in 2004 and it still hurts so much. I was such a Daddy's girl. I've also lost a child at age 13 yrs old. AT least they are together now. The pain is like no other you will know but time does make it where the good memories will come through more than the memories from the hospital room, I promise.

    • Close Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

      I was diagnosed at age 14. At that time I was put on birth control and they said it would fix its self. I was married at 19 and couldn't wait to start trying to get pregnant. I went off the pill, and started gaining weight, I went from weighing 130lbs. to 225lbs. I gained almost 100 lbs. in a period of 4 years. My husband and I tried and tried, then decided that we were having problems, and started using Clomid. I did that for a year, each month using a higher dose, with no luck.
