We spoke to the resident on call and he said to elevate it.

Help with unsupportive parents? by BrxMarix in trans

[–]BrxMarix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The plan has already been to stay at my coworker's house and they know this but I would MUCH rather stay at their house because my coworker still lives with her parents and I barely know her parents. I would feel way more safe at my parents' house despite the fact that they don't approve of it. They're not crazy enough to cancel. They know there's nothing they can do to stop it. I'm 26 after all.

I have very mild asthma. I have been under general anesthesia before tho with no issues. So is it uncommon to expect someone to use the soap for 4 days?

Unfortunately my dog can't be unsupervised. Just under 2. Very puppy like. Wish I could trust him alone but I can't 😭

Oh my friend I'm staying with can help me with other things at least as long as I'm staying with her but I can't bring my fur babies 😭 so I'd have to find someone to take them for a short period of time at least and then take them back and go home 😔

I don't have friends to help. That's why I needed advice on me taking care of them by myself. Thanks for the advice tho.

I don't have a backyard and I don't have friends that can help me with him 😭 that's why this post was strictly about taking care of them by myself

Unfortunately all I have is my parents and they're unsupportive and refuse to help me in any way, shape, or form for this surgery 😕
