You've been to Afghanistan? Respect, for whatever reason you went there to risk your life. Hey, looks like they don't cook very well uh?

haha well im afghan..so i went there to visit family and help my mom with her humanitarian work. the problem is that ive grown up in the US, so my stomach is not used to a lot of the food they eat there..i cant drink tap water or eat yogurt or eat veggies/fruits that aren't soaked in chlorine. my mom tried to be really safe with what i ate, but i guess something slipped by.

Oh God, that's the most serious cause I've heard so far. Well, it's just so good that you are still here enjoying life.

Woa, a birth while asleep, that sounds great! So you didn't suffer at all? What did they give you to make you fall asleep in such a situation?

Yes I have.I went to ER it because I had a serious pain on my stomach and it was very bad cuz I had a bad gastroentmeritis and it almost infected at my pancreas.Doctor told me that it came from stress.I had it after I moved to USA from my home country,Japan.I came back to Japan to visit my family and a couple days later I had this.I know that food has been changed and had lots of stress. Another one is,when my ex husband punched my face and I was bleeding from my mouth and nose and someone who saw this called 911.It was insane as heck.

:-O I think yours is the most serious reason I've read so far... I feel sad for you, I hope your ex husband now is in jail where everybody else is doing him what he made to you.

I've been in a hospital twice, at first, I was born in a hospital (I wonder why I cant remeber anything about it?). But to be serious, 10 years ago I had quite a dangerous surgery and afterwards I had to spend many weeks in a hospital.

Oh, that can be very annoying sometimes... luckily it can be fixed with a few pills, though it hurts a bit!

I can understand you... I had a close friend who suffered of asthma. It's so annoying to always bring the spray with you...

Gosh, that sounds painful. I felt down my bike only once, years ago, but I remember it very well... I had injures everywhere on my legs. Luckily they were superficial.
