    It doesnt have a title, I have been under investigations since I was 15, they know what happens, but no idea why it happens.
    Im afraid I disagree about the children part, why should a hard working family wait until they are infertile/old to have kids (its not like the rest of the country does), your eggs start going downhill at 30, so what if she's still not financially stable, you are saying she shouldn't have any more kids? She doesnt want kids 16 years apart, and it isnt anyones palce to dictate to her when and how many kids they should have

    Yeah right :rolleyes: As I said, I had something that sounds identical - and it was cured with two operations. It could have been managed with tablets but I opted to be cured.

    Yes, I am saying she should not having any more children. She can't afford to feed the one she has got and by selfishly having another she will be taking what few crumbs she can given her firstborn to the new baby. It is selfish and, as she undoubtedly did not plan on having another, downright careless.

  • I have finished my course, but I dont receive the graduation certificate til next year, that doesnt alter anything though, my course has finished and finished in July 2008, and I've been assessed on everything, but my dissertation came in too late for this years ceremony. It doesnt mean anything and doesnt change anything

    our university will issue the certificate and invite you to next year ceremony? surely if you've submitted all the work you can graduate with the other re-sitters?
  • No it isnt syncope, my understanding of syncope is that it is just an irregular erratic heartbeat, and doesnt cause blackouts lasting up to an hour. I had a heart loop recorder fitted in 2004, had 2 more operations through my neck vein that thread into the heart and shot at the nerves, then had a pacemaker fitted, so f*** off and stop trying to diagnose something you know absolutely nothing about

    On a serious note, all the women in my family have large b00bs - mum's an F cup, my sister is a G cup and I'm even bigger than that. I've lost 2 stone but they're not shrinking :mad:

    My sister is tiny (apart from the b00bs) and has to wear size 10 bottoms and size 18 bikini tops. Would be intrested to know more about the tops you make. Are they only blouses, or do you do things like Bravissimo do?

    Ooohhh...and apparantly she bungs her son in a nursery all day, every day (and claims the childcare element of WTC) as her job is 10-2 - funny cos I thought she was self employed - and with the rest of the time she goes skating or meets friends :) what a fabby mother

    Now these blackouts...must be horrendous....even more odd as you talk about driving - little dangerous methinks to drive if you are such a delicate wee thing?
