When I was in 3rd grade I went to the bathroom in school one day only to discover a toilet filled with blood. I was mortified and ran out of the girl's bathroom. I thought that someone had died or was murdered in the stall and never told anyone because I was afraid that the killer then might come after me. Imagine my relief when I learned about periods.
