Dear Advicenators,
One and a half years ago my brother *Henry* was diagnosed with hemophilia, which means that his blood does not clot normally. If he gets a cut, it's really hard to stop the bleeding. If he loses too much blood, he could die if the blood is not replenished.
Henry and I always liked to spend time together (he's two years older than me). We'd ride bikes to the park and shoot basketball hoops. He couldn't be too active, but he was my best friend and I felt safe around him.
Anyway, he lost a lot of blood one day, and was taken to the doctor for another blood injection. The horrible part was, that the person who had donated that blood was carrying the AIDS virus. The doctor proclaimed that Henry now had AIDS.
Henry is 15 years old, is in diapers, and must be fed through an IV or a tube. He has about 4 months left to live. My entire family is sad, and angry about it. My parents must monitor him all the time, so I always have to get a ride to my volleyball games. All three of us never have extra time, because we are always there for Henry and when he must be hospitalized. I had to drop out of volleyball for him.
Henry has been the butt of the jokes from the kids at school lately. They make fun of the fact that he has been in diapers. They are unaware of the fact that his brain is slowly being devoured, and he can't feed himself. The AIDS is tearing the whole family apart. But luckily, my friends are there to console me, but I always feel resentment towards the cruel kids at school. Can I please have some suggestions on what to do about that?
Anyway, as I am spending my last Christmas with my brother, I have no idea what present to give to him. Could I please have some ideas? I want it to be special and something he'll remember when he goes to Heaven.
Also, how can I comfort / cheer up my parents? They have been having lots of mood swings lately and have been very stressed.
Any input and prayer would be great. Sorry about the length. (link)

Don't worry about the length. I am so sorry to hear about your brother, sometimes life isn't fair. I guess your brother is experiening that. If kids make fun of him, you should just say how would you feel if you are going to die soon, and have AIDs, and are only starting your life. The cruel kids at school are just people who are saying things that don't think they hurt people. Just try to ignore them and if it gets to you just say what I said be4. Try making your parent's laugh, and spend a lot of time with them even if you aren't in your best mood ever. A great Christmas gift isn't bought, it's made like a CD, or just something that is special that you put your thought into. Pray is a great thing fot faith to do. That can help. Hope your brother and you have a nice Christmas. Tootles!

Sooo... sorry to here about your friend having cancer. My friend's Mom has lung cancer and is going to die in about 9 months. I know that you must be worried about your friend. That's a young age to pass away. Don't think about how your friend has cancer and how he's going to die. Just think about all the things you are going to do with him NOW. NOW is the time to do everything that you 2 are going to miss out on. Just help your friend as much as possible and good luck with your friend. Tootles!

ok i started cuttin myself like 3 mouths ago because my friends they have been getting mad at me for nothing and theres the hole family thing. and it seems like everything is falling apart and i dont no what to do... and i cant stop.i dont no how to stop (link)

Don't cut, ever. It is a big mistake, I know from personal experience. You can die from that or get a lot of blood lost. I know everything must seem like it is going down like the titantic. I cut myself, I used to. I got help and stopped. It was the best thing I ever did and I'm only a teenager. Talk to your friends and ask if they are mad at you. Just hang-out with them and talk to them as much as possible. Whatver the family thing is... you can figure it out. Just tell your family what's going on at school, or write in a diary about your feelings. Try and not to think negative thoughts, like listen to one of your favorite songs, or do something that is fun for you. Everytime you are going to cut yourself just call one of your bff's and just talk to them about this. Or even talk to your family members. Hope you figure out a way to stop. Tootles!

i have been broken up with my boyfriend since september and we have both pretty much moved on .. i feel like im not ready to start another serious relationship.. i have always liked this kid matt & he is perfect for me but i dont think he knows how i feel .. but there is this kid dave that has always liked me and he treats me like a goddess but for some reason i cant ever like him enough to go out with him... what should i do? be single and go with the flow.. or try to committ to dave? (link)

well... it depends who do you feel more comfortable with? Do you like Matt or Dave more? Do like a skittle test to see which one you like more? I know confusing, just have your friend [ a good friend ] ask u a question about the 2 of them. For example, like who is more cuter? Then for Matt you put skittles in a bowl, if you choose Dave, then put the skittles in the other bowl. Serious relationships, can be hard and fun. The more fun you have the more you know which guy you can pick. Hope you pick the right 1!

just say what you mean or feel. Say, please shut-up, I'm sorry I'm not interested in the stuff you are talking about but just shut-up. You can do it nicely, just don't be totally bitchy at her.
