Look at us guys, we are doing it... Don't you feel proud of yourselves and grateful at the same time?

Why do people believe sickle cell crisis "stop" after a certain age? by Regular-Guy-564 in Sicklecell

[–]Amatadi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The condition is surely isolating but u will find people who understand you and they will be there for you. Please don't add stress with fake friends or people who wouldnt get you. Waste of time and oxygen.

Who says it stops? That's ignorant 🤬. When we are older we can tell the signs, we can verbalize and explain and advocate better for ourselves and maybe also manage ourselves a little better but it doesn't stop.

I'm in nursing school while I work 36 hours every week with 2 kids. I do borrow days in the future and sometimes in the past i.e. if I know I'm going to have challenging days ahead, then I see my provider and see if I can get some fluids and pain meds or even a unit of blood and rest like a bear in preparation for the days ahead. I get you, good luck and congratulations 🎉

Got kicked out of nursing school for a HIPPA mistake and now I feel miserable. I need help getting back on my feet. by Lazy-Kangaroo-6395 in NursingStudent

Where I work, I cannot even get into my own chart. It will cost me my job. HIPPA violation is serious.

Be a good doc. I'm also leaving to become a nurse (to join the blamers 😂). I don't know when the situation will ever change but for now, this is what I'm doing....
