They say presentation is everything, but I'm not sure how appetizing some of these dishes look, even if they are ridiculously expensive. What do you think?

Reading through these real accounts of people who have woken up during their surgeries is enough to make me pray I never have to go under the knife if I can help it... it's truly the stuff of nightmares!

For some reason, parents have a hard time apologizing. It's like they see it as a sign of weakness or something. Maybe it's that generation, or perhaps it's something you develop as soon as you have a child, but whatever the reason behind it, it's not the best trait to pass down to your kids.

Seeing the positivity in all types of physical appearances spreads the message to these women and the general public, that everyone is beautiful, no matter what they look like on the outside.
