when i was 10 i got my period. I ran to my mom crying my eyes out telling her how much i loved her and that i would miss her and to never forget me. when she asked me why i told her that i was bleeding to death. she just laughed and told me that i got my period but i still didn't no what that was until she explained it. Now i think back and laugh!
