Reason for Menstruating - A true story

[mdmjane]

I got this from my friend via email:

In the past week, Nicole Dishuk, aged 31 a newly graduated student with a doctoral degree who's about to start her new career as a Doctor, was flown into a nearby hospital, because she had passed out.

They found a blood clot in her neck, and immediately took her by helicopter to the ER to operate. By the time they removed the right half of her skull to relieve the pressure on her brain; the clot had spread to her brain causing severe damage.

From last Wednesday night, she had been battling. They induced her into a coma to stop the blood flow, operated 3 times and finally, they said there was nothing left that they could do. They found multiple clots in the left side of her brain. The swelling would not stop, and she was on life support.

She died at 4:30 yesterday. She leaves behind a husband, 2 year old Brandon and 4 year old Justin. The CAUSE of DEATH - A birth control injection she was getting that allows you to only have your period three times a year. It interrupts your menstrual cycle, and although it is FDA approved, it shouldn't be!

So to the women in my address book - deal with your cycle once a month so that you can live the rest of your life in a healthier manner. Remember, you have a CYCLE for a reason....
Please send this to every woman you know - you may save someone's  Life...

I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't, and die to find out there is.

A birth control injection? That's it? Can you tell me the brand name?

I never knew that this birth control injections can be deadly. I have been using this for about a year now and experienced some side effects like  irregular cycles, vaginal bleeding, headaches, nausea, weight gain, and vomiting. Can you tell us what the brand name is? Anyway, thanks for the info. This is a big help!
