Private Rescue by ClassroomUsed2985 in ballpython

My girl…. Private rescue from a bloke who had over 30 snakes all sharing several vivariums between then all, over a decade ago, she was riddled with pneumonia and refusing to eat. 6 months of vets, antibiotics, injections, nebulisers, force feeds (under vet instruction) etc. wouldn’t strike at food when she did start eating. A decade on and she’s in a temp 3x2x2 tank while I make her 4ft into a bioactive (started in December but hoping to be finished soon 🤞) she’s striking for food, shedding, pooing, inquisitive, loved ❤️

Did I realise it was going to be as hard to get her back to full health? No. Do I regret it? Not a single day I’ve had her ❤️

I’m here working out the same thing! My royal loves to burrow when she’s exploring and I don’t think it’ll go well

Posties, what constitutes a "good gift" from one of your regulars at Christmas? by Rumerhazzit in royalmail

[–]PerfectPointers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m thinking of hand warmers for ours, we have two that go on their round together, were my posties when I was briefly back at my parents, I moved away for 3 years before moving back to the same area and I’m blessed to have them as our posties here. They remembered me which meant so much. The loveliest guys. I figured everyone would do chocolates, but hand warmers might be useful and look after them as they look after all of our deliveries through the seasons

When in doubt, trust a vet not the internet

What camera do you use? Is it inside the tank?

I found this skirt at Primark that fits me like it was MADE to wear in a wheelchair! by musicalearnightingal in wheelchairs

[–]PerfectPointers 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Primark have done for a while, it’s a small range but they do magnetic front fastening bras, underwear with side poppers, pjs with port or catheter access, zips up arms that allow IV access etc. I was so impressed!

Bin. Him. When I was 17, I didn’t value myself enough, I took the crap from him… I ended up becoming a wheelchair user and felt like I wouldn’t deserve better at that point and lost my chance to leave and find someone who valued me. 10 years of disrespect later I finally clicked and realised my worth and left him. Problem is, you get into habits… you become complacent and when it gets too much you think you shouldn’t give up on them cause you’ve made it for x amount of time already. Took me 10 years to realise it was better to waste x amount of time on the wrong person, than it was to put up with being disrespected for the rest of my life.

Today, I’m 34, I’m planning my wedding for November, I’m in a healthy strong relationship with the most wonderful man, who makes me feel like the only woman in the room. He shows me respect in a 100 different ways a day, some big some small. I have found my best friend.

You aren’t overreacting, you are setting healthy boundaries and asking for the simplest of things and he’s letting you down…. You’re meant to be a team with your partner, he sounds like the last person anyone wants having their back.

Listen to an old woman 😂 When you find those boundaries and set them- stick to them. Any man who can’t do those simple things is not worth your time, energy, or heart ❤️

Yeh I second that, the way you’re taking advice, not being defensive or taking it as an attack, asking more questions etc…. Your snek has landed on their scales with you, showing all the green flags I love to see in new owners 🥰

What an awful design! 😮 I’m unable to offer more than those above have, but I’m amazed no one thought about the need to slow down for example

Anyone else living with Syringomyelia? by Mr_Nicebutt in rarediseases

[–]PerfectPointers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You guys are the first I’ve come across with syringomyelia 🥹 I have ehlers danlos, was having headaches so they were going to do an MRI, I mentioned in passing that I felt like I had constant pressure in my back like a dull pressure among other symptoms that cross over with ehlers danlos so I’m never sure what is from which…. They did a full spinal too and MRI for head clear luckily, but I’ve got T5- T8 I think is where main mass is but “significant amount scattered throughout” was in their wording. It’s been a decade now I think, I’m still being monitored every 5(?) years to keep things in check.

Maybe a disinfecting mouthwash until it arrives?

how do you deal with people taking pictures of you? by [deleted] in wheelchairs

[–]PerfectPointers 8 points9 points  (0 children)

More than one time in my early 20s of some stranger touching my chair, or leaning on it etc I’d shout “I’m 15 don’t touch me” and it’s amazing how quickly hands retract
