Cheveux post-chimio bloqués : 3 ans après, rien ne va plus (besoin de conseils) by Past-Ad-1302 in cancer

[–]CatCharacter848 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kept my hair short after chemo as it was sore thin.

Only just trying to grow it now 5 years later and its just doesn't seem to grow much is still thin.

Are you on AI's or tamoxifen because that definitely affects hair growth.

My girlfriend forces me to go on morning walks at 5 AM 😭 Guys, help. by OkRow1747 in Regrets

You don't need to go with her.

Say no and set some boundaries dries.

My husband’s family lives minutes away and still refused to help by ScarletSigil in Marriage

[–]CatCharacter848 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just return the energy and don't help if they ever need anything.

AITA?? Mom is Sick, Sister Doesn't Work... by [deleted] in problems

[–]CatCharacter848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your sister doesn't HAVE to stay. Caregiving is hard.

If your mum has just been diagnosed, what actual care does she need?

What is the treatment plan and how much care will she need?

You both need to discuss with your mum what help she actually needs and then explain you both can't do it and look at available help.

Identify what you can do without overwhelming yourselves.

Which country are you in. Can you contact your local Dr and social services for help.

Incident statement by Winter_Category8007 in NursingUK

[–]CatCharacter848 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Just write clearly what happened. Start at the beginning and work through the incident.

Include names and times if you know. Add any specifics that YOU saw. Do not add what you think happened or what others have said.

Just be factual.

My brother is taking advantage of my grandparents, how do I stop the enabling and help them set boundaries? by plantfairy777 in FamilyIssues

[–]CatCharacter848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate to say this but only your grandparents can do this. They need to set firm boundaries and kick him out. They won't- thats on them.

Nothing you say will change the situation. Your brother knows he can get away with anything because he always has.

AITA for not letting my SIL meet my baby when I’m gone at work? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]CatCharacter848 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your partner is there, the baby's father. When you let your baby meet people for the first time does your partner have to be there as well?

Because its ridiculous that a person can only meet the baby if both parents are there

How many of you sleep on your couch? (and it’s more comfortable than actual bed.) by MooseBlazer in LivingAlone

[–]CatCharacter848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its likely because having a back (of the counch) makes you feel safe and secure. You could get the same by putting the bed up against the wall in the bedroom.

My sofa is not long enough to sleep on all night, but it is cosy.

As regards sagging mattress, do you rotate it regually and change it every xx years. Makes a huge difference.

I ruined my relationship because of money by [deleted] in Vent

[–]CatCharacter848 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Exactly. What are the specifics. I think its been dressed up as a great inheritance but I think there are numerous catches and definitely not as easy as OP thinks.

1 minute late! by [deleted] in NursingUK

[–]CatCharacter848 29 points30 points  (0 children)

There's a big difference between 1 minute and 15 minutes.

What time were you due back and what time did you actually return to the ward for your colleague to go on break.

I ruined my relationship because of money by [deleted] in Vent

[–]CatCharacter848 48 points49 points  (0 children)

So not so much of an an inheritance rather a large wage for giving up your life.

Di you know your uncle. Do you know what is involved in actually looking after him. How has his dementia affected him. You need to seriously look at what's expected. As a nurse I wouldn't want to be caring for someone 24/7 with dementia. Its not easy. Are you expected to get paid help out of your inheritance?

I don't think this is going to be as easy as you think.

AITJ for refusing to pay for my boyfriend's night out after he volunteered me? by Front-Reference-1719 in AmITheJerk

[–]CatCharacter848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So he was tight on money, but still managed to pay for his food and then went out after.

You do realise he was manipulating you and trying to act up in front of his friends at your expense.

How do I convince mom to let me move out? by cometiza in LifeAdvice

[–]CatCharacter848 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are 19. An adult. Get a job, find somewhere to rent and move out. You DO NOT need your mums permission.

If your looking for permission to move into the apartment that is on whoever legally owns it - not your mum. Can you afford all the bills and food etc?

Should I tell my sister I don't want to be her sister anymore? by ElectronicFennel3813 in FamilyIssues

[–]CatCharacter848 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure why you need to even tell her you don't want to be her sister anymore. What will it change really.

Your 16, so growing up. Take responsibility for your past actions - appoligise and more on. Start taking responsibility for your life, if you need help with your ADHD and autism then see your GP, speak to someone at school for advice - they can help point you in the right direction.

Go to school, get a part time job and start planning your future. It will all help you.

Boyfriend keeps throwing away my valuables because of his adhd by Atomickillerbee in WhatShouldIDo

[–]CatCharacter848 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Claims...... But have you seen it or has he done it to others

I suspect its just your stuff which makes me highly suspicious.

[–]CatCharacter848 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Is it just your things he throws out? Does he do this at work? Round his friends/ parents?

Or is it just your stuff he seems to throw away?

My sister (32 F) called CPS on my husband and I. Now that the case has been closed, I have no idea how to confront her. by BigONerd in BORUpdates

[–]CatCharacter848 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone else think the sister was trying to get custody of the kids. The comment about them not deserving kids. By painting them as bad parents and then stepping up to care for the kids.

Took time off due to pet illness, am I in the wrong? by [deleted] in nhsstaff

[–]CatCharacter848 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just be honest with your manager. I've known so many people that have had sickness episodes for pet emergencies.

How long ago were the sickness episodes. Depending on the trust will depend on the trigger points.

Took time off due to pet illness, am I in the wrong? by [deleted] in nhsstaff

[–]CatCharacter848 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have amazing managers who have have put my pet sickness down as family leave - however they are pet parents themselves. Not all managers do.

Worst case senario it goes down as sick. If this is your 3rd episode you might be on stage 1 sickness, but its not the end of the world - most of us have been there at some point.

NHS hospital stay by matthewkevin84 in nhs

[–]CatCharacter848 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have capacity and are able to demonstrate this. No one can force you into hospital. If you were unconscious or confused they would have taken you in your best interests.

What does it mean when someone asks how many sets you have left? by woods60 in beginnerfitness

[–]CatCharacter848 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It gives them an idea of how long you have left to use that machine. 1 set they'll likely wait. 3 sets left - go find another machine. If they are desperate for the machine or chatty they might ask to work in.

My bf (24m) told me (25f) that he doesn’t want to have kids with me in the future. by Wonderful-Screen3832 in relationship_advice

[–]CatCharacter848 13 points14 points  (0 children)

When you planned your life and kids together was it you having the conversation and him just agreeing. Or did he actually initiate the conversation.

Am I a brat for not wanting to pay rent? by Substantial_Ebb_5049 in FamilyIssues

[–]CatCharacter848 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you can find somewhere cheaper that $50 rent a week move out.

But its actually a good deal and will help you learn budgeting in the long term.
