One night when he was in bed, waiting for his wife to come home from a buisness trip, he heard voices around him, saying..."you will die tonight. not because of me, but because of yourself, Philip." over and over agen. And that night, his wife Meredith came home and found him dead on the bed, with a cigarette in his hand.
Later that night, Meredith was in bed, and heard these strange noises. she was getting scared. like scratching on the door, and the sinks turning on and off,.....and farting.....
In the morning, when she was in the shower, she saw a ghost of a guy with a purple mohawk. and meredith sed,"uhh listen....ok hmm...how should i put this....well im kinda in the shower rite now, sooo uhh...could u haunt me in maybe like 5 minutes?" and the ghost sed,"ok uhh..sure, sure.

Then she continued walking, but jumped due to a huge, cold gust of wind on a hot summer night of 93 degrees ferenhight. then she saw something flash by her, but she turned to see wat it was, but it was nothing but the dark, dark NIGHT.
Then her dog started barking like crazy, out of no where...at nothing but the dark, dark NIGHT.
Then she heard a voice saying,"Emily, Emily, theres nothing around you but the dark, dark NIGHT." over and over again. Emily thought she was going crazy. Then the dark, dark NIGHT started swirling around her, and all the neighbors heard that night was a loud, loud scream...off somewhere in the dark, dark NIGHT.

TRUE SCARY STORY
This actually happend. no lies.
I was at my friend Cathy's house and she live on land that is known to be haunted. One afternoon we were sitting in her playroom and we were on her laptop. she wanted to show me a collection she had so she exited out of iTunes. then i heard a noise in the bathroom so i turned to see the wooden blinds moving up and down all by them selves. then i heard a noise in the hall and saw the door (into the hall) slam shut. then i went to open it and cathy was frozen and she sed she saw a flash of light in the hallway, tho i did not see it, but she is not the type of person who lies about things like this. (or anything else, really)
Weird
Her friend slept over and they couldn't get to sleep so they asked me to tell them a scary story so I did. I told them the tale of Bloody Mary. So then when the story was finished I went to sleep and they layed down it was 3:15 in the morning. So then they went in the bathroom and got bright red lipstick and wrote there names on the mirror. And then the said Bloody Mary 10 times. Nothing showed up but a glow a red glow of a face. They weren't sure if it was her or a her big brother playing a trick on them. So they said Bloody Mary another 10 times. Then the glow got bigger and bigger. So they layed down and in the morning there was marks all over there arms and on a piece of paper it said I'll be back. So from that day on they will never ever do that again they were so scared so they said "Mom/Mrs.J We will never do that again". And that's what happend that day.
Scary Story
One day I saw a man who tried to put a weapon to my throat, thats probably the scariest stroy for me especially since it was real life.
My 10 year old son
I am the mother of a now 10 year old son, but when this all began he was 6. Dec 19, 2008 I had to admit my son into the hospital into the behaviorial unit because at 9 he was threatning to hurt himself and had been stabbing himself with a pencil at school, he was already under the care of a psychiatrist and on medication. He was diagnosed with ADHD when he was 5, and then in 2005 there was an incident at home which prompted me to put him into therapy. He had a psychological evaluation done and he was the n diagnosed with major depression with psychotic features/ early childhood psychosis. When he was in the hospital in december he was seen by a psychiatrist, neurologist, nutrionist and was supposed to see a psychologist, well he never made it. But it was the holidays and he was the ONLY child in there so I didn't want him to spend his christmas in there alone, so they kept him for 4 days and after they released him they gave me no information. It was the holidays so after they released him I was unable to get in touch with anybody until after xmas, but I did not speak to the psychiatrist that treated him until almost 2 weeks later when I called the office to make his follow-up appointment and then I asked her what did they come up with, what were their findings and can u believe she told me over the phone that her and the neurologist agreed that he had ASPERGERS AUTISM!!!! How do you give a parent a diagnosis of some form of Autism over the phone and almost 2 weeks later. I am dumbfounded at her lack of professionlism not to mention why is she earning six figures when she is not even doing her job.Since then I have had problem after problem getting him the proper help and treatment he needs. If I wasn't doing anything and it came to someone elses' attention CPS would be involved and I would be investigated, well now they need to be investigated. How do you entrust your childs life and care in these people and this is how they do you, I feel like he has been mistreated, not properly cared for and overlooked, but as soon as something bad happens to him they will try to blame me, fingers will be pointed at me because I'm mom. I was in school on the dean's list with a 3.6 GPA and have had to stop going to school right now to focus all of my time and attention on my son and gettin him the right treatment. But now I think I know what it is I need to be doing..... Advocating, I want to be an advocate for my child and any other mother - child out here that might need help that ay not know where to turn like I don't I'm just reaching out right now!!! If anyone has any information or any info on being an advocate or someone I can network with PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AT Marniadams@sbcglobal.net any help or information would be greatly appreciated. Many blessings to all...
Misscarriages and D & C's
Two young women that are relatives, have recently had a miscarriage. One had no insurance and had to wait hours in the waiting room clinic. The other young woman, upper middle class, with medical insurance.
The woman with no insurance who I took to the clinic said that she was miscarrying. They told her to go home, cramping and bleeding and was told to have the miscarriage natural. While I was there, I brought the subject up to the Doctor. I said my mother's generation (80's) had a D & C when she miscarried. My generation (50"s) was told the same thing they told my mother. They said it was best to have a D & C to make sure all tissue was cleaned out so you didn't have to worry about getting an infection.
The other young woman with insurance was also told to go home and have the miscarriage naturally.
I admit I'm too cynical and I don't trust what Doctors are saying and I don't trust what the insurance says or does. I had 2 miscarriages which was emotionally traumatic. I can't imagine going through it naturally.
I've tried to ask different doctors why they are doing it that way. They said miscaring naturally was safer and healthier.
Now, am I nuts, or are the insurance companies and the hospitals trying to get out of paying for a D & C? Are there any doctors or nurses that I could actually believe, tell me whats going on.
Sincerely, Brenda Caudill
Misscarriages and D & C's Reply
I understand your frustrtation over the lack of care given these days. I went into the hospital hemmoraging, the doctor told me I was have a miscarrige and to just go home and wait it out.
I did as I was told.
About 2 weeks later I was back in the hospital again, I DID NOT HAVE A MISCARRIAGE !! I was still pregnant. You could only imagine the crying and pain I was in for 2 weeks thinking I had lost the baby.....WHERE THE HELL DO THEY GET THEIR CERTIFICATES TO BECOME DOCTORS.
