Tina asked:


When I was 8 years old my mother passed away of ****** cancer. I was to young at the time to actually understand what death was. In time I started to become very scared of everything. Now one of my close friends mother just passed away and I don’t know whether to talk to him and comfort him or just leave it alone. He is taking it really hard. He is a 16 year old that understands everything about death. Should I just tell him that I know what he is going through and try to connect to him

Ive read in a magazine that taking birth control pills for under 8 years can actually lessen the chance of getting cervial cancer but taking them for 8 years or more can make you more susceptible to getting cancer. Is this true? Ive definitely be on the the pill for more than 8 years. I also have HPV and HSV-2 which I know both make you more likey to get cervial cancer.
