kind of strange, but good

i received an email yesterday evening from a girl who's blog i read.  she is 24 with cin3 borderline cervical cancer.  i have to say, although i have never met her, i feel like she is just the type of person that socially-awkward me would totally want to be friends with in real life (as opposed to internet life).  i really feel for her mostly because of my work and my disterbing past . . .

well, anyway, i read her blog daily and i feel a bit of a connection to her.  i figured that she didn't think twice about me, even though i left a rather insensitive post on her blog about the hpv vaccine back in september.  so, she emailed me last night asking gyn advice because she was having a bad post-op reaction, it almost made me cry.  so i asked her for her op information and went to the doctor (the one i work for) with it, and she was able to offer a bit of advice.  i told this girl that she can email me whenever, can im me, i would even give her my phone number.  it just gets to me that she is hurting and has no-one she feels comfortable turning to.  she lives in the u.k. and has some pretty junky healthcare.  yuckos.

my point is: if anyone out there has any gyn or "girly" problems and you feel like you have no one to turn to . . . here i am.   i've heard it all and would hate to think that a woman is suffering with nobody to talk to.

my better blog, health care
