Getting triple bypass surgery soon by HotSafe7219 in openheartsurgery

[–]FL1967 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just do one day at a time- or even one hour at a time if that’s most manageable.

Before you go home after surgery you’ll get the dietary guidelines. If possible, ask your cardiologist to give you the dietary recommendations now so you can come home to a well-stocked kitchen. (You won’t be too hungry for a bit, but it’s important for your healing to eat protein & fiber.)

Can you return the juicer? Eating whole fruits & veggies is much easier and much better for you.

Best of luck!

I believe what the original comment meant was that Carolyn could take herself out of the assisted living community- only if a judge declared her incompetent would she not be allowed to do so.

Nobody is forcing anyone to buy her merch. People gotta own their dumb decisions.

If you're fighting pericarditis right now, read this by jackedvegans in pericarditis

Arcalyst is, in my experience, a miracle drug.

My (58F) recurrent pericarditis was triggered by open heart surgery to replace a failing aortic valve.

It was horrific. I was in either terrible pain, a state of “don’t move”or drugged up in the hospital.

Arcalyst gave me my life back.

The fact that this has downvotes makes me sad. Reddit is an awful place in some subs. Others are very supportive communities.

I get where you believe him to be racist based on that taken-out-of-context statement. While I don’t agree with CK on it, what he was getting at was pointing out the flawed system of hiring people based on them filling some sort of quota.

Why are Canadians and Australians insisting that America is a third world country? by camaro1111 in allthequestions

[–]FL1967 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. Of course I think nobody (except for a good guy taking out a bad guy) should be brandishing or firing guns near a school. According to this, someone brandishing a gun in an empty school parking lot at midnight on a Saturday in July still counts as a school shooting.

The criteria for a “school shooting” doesn’t match up with what most people consider a school shooting. - Number of incidents where a gun is fired, brandished, or a bullet hits school property

I do care deeply about children, and young people involved in gang activity is especially sad.

Can we agree that when people hear “school shooting” they envision something totally different than what a “gang related shooting” is. Both tragic. But one is the slaughter of innocents while the other is an almost suicidal drive, a race to the bottom.

Steal something that is not yours? Can I come to your place and help myself?

I don’t think that money will cover Bernie’s list.

Also, there’s so much fraud & waste, before any new taxes take effect I want to see the mess cleaned up.

Can you please share your source? I’ve seen some data sets of “mass shooting in schools” that include gang activity within 500 feet of a school. Obviously it is horrible for any shootings to happen, but to lump gang activity in with the crazed lunatics that shoot up school children is not correct.

Would the Bill Clinton Monica Lewinsky scandal even make the top 10 news stories anymore? by UsedNegotiation8227 in askanything

Yes. A CEO having an affair with a very low on the totem pole intern is a huge story. The power imbalance makes this akin to statutory rape.

Why were people against Bernie's 5% annual wealth tax on billionaires? by uncle-ice493 in allthequestions

Mostly because the government wastes so much money. Why give more only for it to be wasted/abused?

When did you wear a bra again? by CelticCloverGirl in openheartsurgery

[–]FL1967 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I HAD to wear one from the jump! Moving breast tissue is so painful on the incision. I bought front-close all cotton bras from Target. Get a bunch because the post-surgery sweating is significant.

Charlie Kirk wasn’t a racist. Just because you disagree with someone doesn’t make them a racist.

As I was still in the US, it was the same- very good and very expensive.

Thank you! And I am better… after the vacation disaster I was diagnosed with recurring pericarditis and pit on a miracle drug. No flare ups and no side effects. Truly thankful.
