The cysts were the reason for her taking birth control to begin with, not the cause of the cysts. And cysts aren't something that it's easy (or perhaps even possible) to find a "fix" for.

The funny thing here is that, if people wouldn't rename the document, Word handles change control natively (including comparison of versions). You can also do it with documents named differently, but the bad habit of baking each file d

I wish I had more than one upvote, mostly for your first point. It feels like news outlets choose "urgency" over importance (even if that urgency is mostly trumped up by news organizations). But while climate change is obviously a
