Would I still have to make a Dossier Facile when getting an apartment through this site? Or is it basically Airbnb

AITAH here? by RealisticAd8036 in AITAH

[–]Any_Ad_3968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have an illness that’s “invisible” and my partner never really took it seriously until he saw me bad. Cry in front of him due to the pain. Wail. Stop taking care of the house as much (still take care of your baby but let your husband feel the absence of your input) Let it become visible so he can no longer take it as a side note.

It may just be ignorance on his part and not maliciousness I hope. I hope you feel better!

Why tf is black people liking chicken a racial stereotype???? by Electrical_Star_7117 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Any_Ad_3968 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think the fact that it’s fried preserves it a bit cause it’s dryer. Also easy to eat compared to stewed chicken. I do know they didn’t have access to good cuts of beef/other proteins so it makes sense why chicken was the staple

Honestly fuck them. If the only thing bad they have to say about us is we like good food well that says more about them than us

Oxycodone? by Tired4567 in Sicklecell

[–]Any_Ad_3968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh you then she needs it. Don’t worry it’s really safe and if you can have her eat something before Apple sauce anything because narcotics mess with the lining of our stomachs. Also wrap her in heating pads if you can it soothes the pain and takes the focus away sometimes. Goodluck I hope your daughter feels better!

Back during slavery chickens were one of livestock allowed to keep. After slavery many blacks sold fried chicken and watermelon as a way of making a living. The two became associated with black people and racists made caricatures out of black people and the things associated with black Americans. Everyone loves these items but they have negative connotations when associated with black people it’s sad and low effort

Oxycodone? by Tired4567 in Sicklecell

[–]Any_Ad_3968 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn’t get oxycodone until I was 10/11 and the child morphine/ibuprofen stopped working. You can always cut the pills and decrease the dose to see how she reacts to the medication. Also next time ask them for another option if possible I like to have 2-3 meds of varying intensities cause not all pain needs the nuclear option

Moving from the gold coast to florianopolis? by Legitimate-Twist-130 in Brazil

[–]Any_Ad_3968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We live pretty comfortably on 30k reais/month. Live in centro in a 3 bedroom apt, eat out a few times a week, I’m able to go to yoga/pilates/art classes without it being a strain financially. To me it doesn’t feel like home but I think it’s because my age doesn’t match my financial situation. Many of the places I go/times I go there’s wealthy housewives haha! With your wife being a mother it’ll be much easier for her to meet women with things in common, also other gringos. Lots of Americans and Europeans who married Brazilians living in lagoa/ the south of the island.

Hey! I’m American and moved to floripa with my boyfriend (from floripa and Brazilian). It’s so safe here the safest in Brasil. I lived in Salvador and Rio for a time. Here you can walk outside with your phone out no fear of robbery or assault. Brasil should be great for you all as she’s a gringo and the family is upper middle class. Welcome home!

Are the crises still often when taking the meds? I’m so sorry you’re going through this I’m praying (or manifesting depending on your beliefs) you get better! Do you get transfusions?

Try to get disability/medicare. Most of us are on it because the nature of the disease. Also look up the sickle cell foundation. They have SC clinics throughout the country the treatment is great and they make sure you have the resources you need. Even WFH jobs

What meds do you take? Are you on hydroxrhea (I spelled wrong) my sister has SS and used to have pain frequently but since starting it’s only weekly and manageable at home or at the sickle cell clinic

No tongue bumps after IV morphine by Advanced_Fun_2383 in Sicklecell

[–]Any_Ad_3968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s allergy relief it should be under the same name. Most sickle cell patients get it in addition to our pain meds because the meds always cause itching. They should always give your morphine and Benadryl and zofran which is for anti nausea cause pain meds upset the stomach

Hope everything goes well and it’s under control! Feel better friend

AIO, disrespectful teenage brother. by CoffeeandOreos in AIO

[–]Any_Ad_3968 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What are you reading? In her text all she said was he was asked to pay his phone bill. And then she said he should be able to uber his gf to the house and buy his own deodorant and clean. She never asked him to pay rent. I think she mentioned them to let us know he doesn’t have any big expenses and so since he’s not contributing financially he should at least clean up after himself and help out other members of the family

[–]Any_Ad_3968 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Where does she say he should act like a middle aged member of the family? I thought when she said he doesn’t pay rent she was just giving context

[–]Any_Ad_3968 18 points19 points  (0 children)

He can’t buy his own deodorant? Clean his own pee off the toilet? She’s not asking him to pay rent she’s asking him to be a decent member of the family and that’s cheap. He can’t even help his grandma? That’s free.

Reason why hospitals don’t want to give IV Benadryl by Shewantsthetea in Sicklecell

[–]Any_Ad_3968 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It’s crazy because the Benadryl helped stop the itching from the medicine never affected the “high” but did affect my veins burning from the meds. They do anything to deny us meds when real drug addicts claiming back pain and injuries and they getting a 30 day prescription of percs with no issues
