Classified Ad!
WANTED Anyone willing to trade in their body for one that is "slightly malfunctioning".
All applicants will be considered.
For free you will get the following:
- a whopping headache - a mind like a sieve (this morning I wore odd shoes to the shops) - hair that does not cope with humidity - gastritis resulting in severe nausea - a stomach bloated to ten times it normal size - a very sensitive colon full of trapped gas - a set of ovaries unwilling to release even one egg (IVF comes as a bonus "old friend") - crippling lower backache (thanks to the bloated stomach and sensitive colon) - a bladder that can sense when a bathroom is not near and instantly becomes "busting"
I am also willing to throw in a range of different sized clothing designed to fit an ever bloating stomach.
I know I'll be rushed off my feet after placing this Ad.
But seriously everyone, sometimes the only way of making it through the day is to make a joke of it!

I was talking to my best friend Danielle the other day, and she was telling me that she wishes she could be sick and get all the attention and have people worrying about her. She told me that she would trade health with me any day of the week, just so she could stay home from school, get all the attention, and people worry about her. If only I could take her up for that bargin

-lol- I know what you mean sharon. I dont think Danielle ever got a stomach ache in her life, so in her case, ignorance is bliss.My other friend, lisa, says she wishes she had my body because my ibs forces me to maintain a low fat diet and therefore, i am skinny. Lisa is overweight, and can not control her cravings for fatty food.

If only we could fins someone to trade us their health body, even if it was only for one day. Today I was wearing my t-shirt out at work today, because I was cleaning the room, and two I was bloated. I have been adding more fiber and it hasn't been agreeing with me. A co-worker looked at me and said you look pregnant. I just looked at her and said, "Gee thanks, I really wanted to hear that." This was coming from someone who recently was diagnosed with IBS-C. I have decided to cut out the bran for a day or two and see if my gut area flattens out some, and my intestines settle down.
