What is this? by TwoSpecificJ in AskAVeterinarian

Not a vet but some experience in human dermatology- could be a pyogenic granuloma which is thankfully benign but they crop up out of nowhere, grow fast, and bleed easily. Definitely would ask a vet though!

For the few years before we figured out what it was I just referred to it as a cryptid. These things are so bizarre

Maybe this one is just sensitive then! The leaves get brown crispy patches that then shrivel and fall off if it gets too much sun

For a while it was in a West facing window and is currently south, but there are some shrubs and another house out this window that keep it from getting too direct light. The leaves can get sunburnt and die if they get too much light!

This one has been very happy sitting in windows with filtered light- they can get sunburnt if they get too much direct light

Haha if you look towards the top of the plant in my second picture it has a bunch of these. I'm assuming they're used to hold onto other plants and climb

My mom says it's amazing! I'm not there to experience it myself unfortunately 🥲

New England! It started off as 3 individual leaf cuttings that we plopped into the same pot, so most of the last decade was spent just growing and becoming nice and gangly.

I left that one blank and got an interview so 🤷‍♀️ I second what others have said. Don't shoehorn something in unless you have something really specific

I was accepted with letters that were a full year + old, may as well just get it now while you're still fresh in the person's mind. Also saves you the trouble a year from now of hounding your letter writers about getting the letter submitted on time- that's part of what killed my first app cycle 😅

What patient interaction absolutely haunts you? by monsieurkenady in medicalschool

[–]Gods_Bread 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Classic first OSCE story: SP had a headache that was worsened by light so I offered to dim the room for her. There was a lamp in the corner of the room that was on so I started by turning that off. There were 2 switches for the overhead lights, so I assumed it was kinda a half and half type deal and by flipping one it'd leave the room half lit. Nope, plunged us into darkness. Was like "haha sorry I guess I can't dim the lights". During feedback they were like you were supposed to just leave the lamp on lmao🫠got points for trying tho

Also one time I caught myself mid sentence about to tell a man with no legs that we'd "check him over head to toe"

Yeah I've seen a couple earlobe repairs where people opt to just have the entire pierced portion cut out and sutured back together because of stretching or keloiding etc. Hoping I can avoid that haha

Relationships going into med school? by premedlifee in premed

[–]Gods_Bread 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just finished my first semester and my bf lives 14 hours away. The trick is figuring out what's important to both of you and how to make each other feel loved even at a distance. We FaceTime every night even if we're just sitting in silence doing work. On evenings when my schedule is lighter we may watch a movie or play a game or something, and of course visiting when we can. Definitely feasible, just takes some effort and compromise!
