oprah winfrey

Today watched lots of tv as usual. And I watch the oprah winfrey show. She always love to bring those issues like children diseases and illnesses and heart-breaking and miraculous stories onto the show. The first story was about this girl who could not feel any pain. I remembered a line from R-17 saying that God made us feel pain to keep us alive or else everyone could have died as they wish. And that was rather true. This girl got hurt and lost her eyesight because of her inability to feel pain. She suffered second degree burns from a lightbulb cos she could not feel the heat. She was having a broken jaw for a long time without knowing. If she was ill, there were not symptoms to be shown or she could feel. Thus her parents would never know when to bring her to the doctor and stuff. So there must be a person to watch her 24/7. Then they discussed about children who suffers from turette syndrome. And these kids who normally have obssesive compulsive disorder as well. And they show this home video of a girl telling her mother how bad school was as everybody just mock at her of her twitches and stuff. And the look on her face was awfully painful. And turette(whatever you spell it) syndrome is something that can't be cured but only can be helped a little by taking medication. Their weird actions are just simply things beyond their control. And the last story was about the girl with the mermaid syndrome who eventually experience a miracle and had her legs seperated and is able to like other normal poeple I supposed. Cos people down with this syndrome normally would pass away in the womb and one day after they're born. Wait, that is not the last story. The last story was about these cancer-stricken patients who were hit by hurricane katrina were able to transfer to st. luke's and continue their treatment. So actually love and compassion is spreading around this world. So heartwarming eh? This is soapish line man. HAHAHAHAHAHA.-marcie's laugh.
