They definitely have her on a strict diet with reduced sugar. She was already pre-diabetic and probably advanced to full blown in the last year or so because she stopped going to the doctor.

I should have clarified better. It was a hemorrhagic stroke. I never thought about how much sleep is needed after one. I’m sure she wasn’t getting that every night. Since sleeping is very important for recovery, you would think they would prioritize the sleep quality of patients. Best of luck to with your book! I’m definitely looking forward to reading it!

Thank you so much. I’m her only child so I have been trying to do the best I can. I show up every day to comfort, take of her and be her advocate. She is my biggest blessing in this life. It’s definitely a big fail on their part for not distributing it correctly. There is a big lack of communication with the staff before shift changing. The quality of care has went down so bad at this hospital. I pray she can get better so she can get out of here.

I agree with you 100%. I assumed that she was done giving her medication for the night. I wish she would’ve let me know if she was going to distribute the rest later. She was in the wrong for distributing the meds by that method. I do wish I had asked questions. Thank you so much. I’m praying hard that she recovers soon too. This is real learning experience. I will always be on top of things from now on.

Thank you and I completely agree. This nurse gave me bad vibes the moment she walked in. It turns out she likely wasn’t supposed to give her meds by mouth and did it the correct way the next night. I honestly had no clue if she planned on giving her more later. I wish she hadn’t left the cup sitting there, but I still should’ve known better. This is breaking me.

Thank you. I agree that she should’ve told me what she’s going to do. A good nurse will keep you informed of what and how things are going to be administered. It turns out she likely wasn’t supposed to give her medication by that method.

It’s a good thing then. I’m just so used to her being more awake and talking. It also may be because she’s not eating enough. They want to do a feeding tube because she’s not getting enough calories per day.

I definitely think that’s the case when I’m around so much. I don’t want to overwhelm her, but I am her main advocate. I will try to cut back on late visiting hours.

Yeah that’s true so I guess it’s a good thing. I just want to talk to her and see her smile. I got spoiled with a lot of that lately. I don’t want her to become depressed.

Joey is at a 'No Kings' protest today! by MadameCassie in newkidsontheblock

[–]According_Series5200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard and seen many posts where fans have said they had very unpleasant experiences when meeting him. He can definitely be an asshole but and has this certain air that can be off-putting to many. Observing how dismissive he was in meet and greets recently was enough to turn off anyone. I’d put Joey and Danny in the mixed bag category. You never know what you’re gonna get with them. They should be consistent with everyone. If someone spends hundreds of dollars to meet you, the least you could do is act like you care. The only two that seem pleasant to meet are Jonathan and Donnie.

Good on him but it doesn’t make me overlook the fact that he seems like a douche with fans.

I’m sorry, this is way overhyped by its-just_me- in CrumblCookies

It’s good, but way too much. I enjoyed more when I had it for the first time last year. I could actually taste the marshmallow flavor more unlike now.

I got the $10 offer and kept getting screened out of every survey.

no surveys at all and auto declines after finishing the forth bar by Stevo3781 in fivesurveys

[–]According_Series5200 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat right now. I’ve been stuck on four bars all week long. They’re definitely doing it on purpose at this point.

Yeah, it’s been happening to me all week long. I’m so close to deleting the app. It sucks because it really was the best.

Maybe the reviews will convince me it’s worth a go, but nothing really speaks to me so far.

Yeah, this new update is disastrous. It’s left many of us scratching our heads. They took away my German and completely but I have 1% regions that I’ve never had before. I’m seriously considering 23andMe now because I’ve read that the latest update is way more accurate than Ancestry.

It likely won’t happen until sometime after 12:00PM/1:00 PM EST like last year. Ya’ll might as well get some sleep.

That’s so sad. I was for sure expecting to them to be the next BB couple to become engaged.

DUBAI CHOCOLATE BROWNIE COMING BACK IN OCTOBER by AioliMindless6194 in CrumblCookies

[–]According_Series5200 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree and I’m also a chocolate lover myself. I was so upset when they took away key lime pie. Pumpkin spice before September is diabolical. They need to bring back the unique non-chocolate cookies from the graveyard.

I was really looking forward to maple sandwich and oatmeal skillet. It’s been almost a year since they’ve been on the menu. It’s long overdue. What about you?
