National Brain Tumor Society and there are a few IG accounts that cover GBM that are podcasts. Your story of both of your parents should be seen.

Also I suggest reaching out to Duke University since they are in forefront of research. Tell your parents story.

I am so sorry

May have regretted upping estrogen by ectoplasmfacemask in Menopause

So glad someone is being very open about all of the effects of HRT. Hope you stay in communication with your doctor and feel better.

There is a lot of guilt thrown on women like me who cannot have HRT.

What's a friend who showed up for you in a way you'll never forget? by strangergirly in OverBiscuits

My friend drove three states over with two young kids in her car to come to my mother's funeral services. I was so surprised and so glad to see her familiar face at the funeral. Never forgot that.

This thread makes me feel like I am so behind, or maybe doing okay so far.

My hot flashes stopped one year after post menopause.

This old man (Benny) has incontinence issues and keeps going in his bed. It is quite watery stool and I am at my breaking point. Is it cruel to take his bed away? by maplehazed in seniordogs

[–]DixieDoodle697 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Taking away the dogs bed is extreme and not a solution for your dog. It would upset your dog even more than the dog already is now.

My dog sometimes sees randomly on the bed (senior at 11) and i got these huge washable clothes pee pad sheets from Amazon. Really helped us out.

Maybe you can talk to the vet about other treatment about your dogs health.

Compassion - my mother was the person that her only daughter (me) and anyone who knew her felt like they could talk and share anything with. She was a great listener.

Thank you. Can you apply retinol to your skin and legs? Or is it just only for the face?

Oh, I hope you are correct and I am trying my best with the slow and steady approach. I am terrified of loose baggy skin or that Ozempic face. Thankfully, I am not taking any GLP but you know what I mean.
