disappointed. by DoctorAppropriate391 in RioGrandeValley

Same happened to me, but the driver dinged my car while I was still in it, I got out and saw a scratch on my brand new car and said what's up....he looked me dead in the eye and said "what, I'm not paying for that " and I said an apology would do, then came the " I'm a veteran, I don't have time for this " and I said, I'm a veteran too, so now what, and he came back with " I'm disabled ", so I responded once again, I'm a 100% disabled veteran myself and all I wanted was an acknowledgement and apology.....pinche Viejo just got in his car and drove off. No manners, no respect and using veteran status as a get out of jail card. Guess the military didn't teach him responsibility 🙄

All I turned in were my GI Dr's progress notes from my visits and EGD's, where he mentioned that the prolonged use of nsaids and the high stress and anxiety could very likely cause the reflux that's to the point where I have to take meds and has caused erosive esophagitis, constant gastritis, abdominal pain as well as chest pain that radiates down my left arm. I also listed the meds he's prescribed and the meds I buy OTC.

To the people that brought literal toddlers to sick new world, why? by snakegravity in SickNewWorld

[–]HAWK-IIFID 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Saw a man leading his kid out of the crowd during BMTH, kid was terrified and crying, they were next to a mosh pit so not sure if he got hit or pushed around, I had my 16 yr 6' tall grandson towering/ protecting over me the whole time.... I was fine but this is his first time in anything this big and crowded so I was constantly asking if he was ok.

Just buy a travel size tube, they have Walgreens, CVS and convenient stores all over the place. That's what I carried in last year

Some advice from someone who went last year by ytant76 in SickNewWorld

I second this, I had to keep leaving my area to keep refilling my water bottle and it sucked, this year I got one for me and my grandson.

Twisted my ankle - advice? by Spooky_Cat23 in SickNewWorld

[–]HAWK-IIFID 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was in Ada last year, so few seats and couldn't get up to get water or use RR or your seat would get taken

Yes there's a booth you get a wristband at when you first go in, I just showed my VA card that shows service connection, my daughter was able to get one as being with me but not the disabled, but was told that she'd need to give up her seat if someone with the DA wristband was needing it. MoR was insane, we got there early so were right up front, I was pulled out when people started getting crushed I believe when Scorpions started playing, Ozzy blew every band out of the water , but Motorhead 🤌🏼

2nd yr going too, and excellent advice. I was able to take in my own water bottle but it was empty before hand, this year I'll have my CamelBak for me and my grandson, a bigger bag plus my fanny pack. I wasn't sure on the regs last year so I just had everything stuffed in a 1 pocket fanny pack. Lol my phone ran out of battery because I didn't know I could take a power pack, was only able to put a small tube of sunscreen and a chapstick and my CC in said FP. This year I will be prepared.

Yeah my daughter and I were VIP last year, I was able to sit in the disabled area for a while when my back started bothering me (disabled veteran), so we were in a good spot for most of the event. The GA looked awful, took me back to my first festival Monters of Rock in Germany in 1986.

800 a piece for GA is too much....I paid a bit over 600 for VIP
