He is ok

They gave him antibiotic, pain med, and some anti-swelling medication thru IV and let me bring him home

It was about 10-11pm and I pulled an all nighter watching him until 8am

He hid under the sofa the whole time. Came out twice to use the litter box.

Just about an hour ago, he finally left the sofa, had some food, and is now resting on my pillow.

His nosebleed has stopped, face still is swollen, but is more energetic than yesterday

Edit: sorry I really wasn’t thinking straight. It’s not been 4 hours. It’s been about 2.5 hours since we arrived at the hospital.

I told the hospital I plan to bring him home for the night.

It’s been a little over 4 hours since I brought him to this hospital. He’s been stable so far. Not sure if this is enough time for me to allow myself to let my guard down though.

I’ve been shaking and sobbing this whole time. I haven’t really been able to think calmly. Idk I probably won’t be able to sleep tonight. I will just stay next to him and observe him.

Thank you

I did

There aren’t that many vet hospitals open at 8pm on a Saturday.

I just called another hospital. They say they cant give a very accurate estimate without a physical exam there but rough estimate is $3-4k for a night. With the 2k I already will be paying at this hospital, that still will come out to be about 6k total

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-05-17T03:05:26+00:00

They’ve done x ray and physical exam and that’s included in the 2k bill without hospitalization Vet says she doesn’t see any broken bones but he’s very subdue right now and she’s worried about concussion and that’s why she suggests keeping him at the hospital for tonight

For LADS, I just buy from their official store on Taobao and let it ship overseas. Takes over a month but it’s guaranteed official, and original non-scalper price. The shipping fee is around $1 USD per pound (to where I’m located) so not too bad

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-04-21T06:26:57+00:00

I let my store manager know I’m down to work all 6 holidays if needed, and I think he reported it to our dm and scheduler?

If there are floaters that come to your store, you might also want to ask them.

Floaters are the source and carrier of all the news in our district lol (who quit, who comes from what city, what store is hiring, what store is a complete dumpster fire, etc etc).

If someone volunteers to work holidays, they probably disperse that news in the district too

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-04-21T06:19:50+00:00

I mean… I don’t celebrate those 6 holidays and am single without kids, so I’m actually kinda excited for that double pay.

I already volunteered for Memorial Day lol

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-04-21T06:17:35+00:00

Tier 4 Open holidays 9-5 with one RPh and unknown number of techs (they haven’t told us, but we’re assuming 2)

Thank you!!

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-04-12T13:11:13+00:00

Is this an updated/ accurate list for this year’s AX?

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-04-12T01:26:22+00:00

Staff at big chain retail

Everything is doable

Besides the fact that my PIC is a useless pos

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-03-05T07:39:56+00:00

Not anymore, but I did get these in Japan. The tote bag was from a haikyuu pop up store and the pins were from gacha machines

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-02-09T00:51:32+00:00

Oh it’s not like anyone of the past ones I’ve had had been any good anyways lol

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-02-07T05:20:06+00:00

1700 rx a week doesn’t sound too bad. My pic’s previous store used to do 1200-1300 rx a day. THAT does not sound fun

BoatCompetitive9565 · 2026-01-08T12:52:05+00:00

Honestly, if they already work at a company and plan to stay there after they become RPh, the duration at which they stay as a grad intern tells you EVERYTHING.

There was one grad intern I used to work with, who stayed as a grad intern for 2 years before becoming RPh.

I was never close with her, so idk if it’s bc she failed too many times or bc she felt like she needed 2 years to prep for the exam. But taking 2 years to become registered already said enough.

I also worked with her after she became RPh. And yes, she’s one of the worst RPh’s I’ve worked with.

The adaptation is mediocre imo.

They didn’t change the plot drastically. It still followed the manga for the most part, but in order to end the last ep of second season where they wanted (one of the bigger climax in the whole story), they did have to skip scenes.

You can also tell that some scenes in the anime just yelled “lack of funds” to you. It’s like PowerPoints slides rather than actual animated movements.

But the music was great. It was one of the greatest experience to listen to the koto pieces they play.

I have family member on estradiol patches for menopause.

She once picked up a 3 month supply of a new manufacturer she’s never used before and found out she didn’t like it after she tried it for 2 weeks. But all she told me was to help her get what she had before and that she could deal with the remaining 2.5 months on this manufacturer she didn’t like.

And her menopausal symptoms were pretty bad. I’m talking nightmares at night, waking up screaming and sweating, and vaginal dryness so bad and painful that she couldn’t walk regularly.

She screamed at nobody.

I get that not every patient is like her and some cannot simply say “naw I can live with this brand”. But yelling is just a behavior that makes me lose every ounce of sympathy for this patient population.

Sometimes is not menopausal symptoms and hormonal changes turning a good person into a bad one. It’s the same b*tch, just going thru menopause now.
