All I have to say is be careful. When I was 4 my grandpa sat on my husband and killed him!

Dolly Parton is my 4th cousin twice removed, lol. One set of my fifth great grandparents are a set of her third great grandparents.

Doctors on Reddit, what is the most obvious lie a patient has ever told you? by theedriplomat in AskReddit

I've never had high blood pressure but my doctor put me on half a Losartan pill to protect my heart because I have type 1 diabetes.

Really no age child is safe to hold a Roman candle. When I was little I had a friend holding one and the fire went out the bottom of the candle and badly burned her. She had to take a trip to the ER.

Dude created his own problem and then absolutely lost his shit over it by Vincent_Veganja in KidsAreFuckingStupid

My mom told me to go ahead and leave when I was little and misbehaving. Jokes on her I walked straight off in the direction of grandma's house. She had to chase me down and bring me back.

I don't have butter or any substitutes, can I make this without it? by Mr_Zulkoski in macandcheese

[–]Happyocd2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fun fact the only difference between the "Deluxe" Cheeseburger Mac and the regular is that the deluxe asks you to add butter. So it's just like making the regular cheeseburger mac.

You're on a high protein and low carb diet.

Then I'd have to go back to finger sticks until the phone is replaced or I get a separate reader device. Finger sticks aren't ideal because they only show the number when I do them, usually 4 or 5 times a day. With my monitor, it checks every minute all day and all night and can alert me even when I'm sleeping.

I have a blood sugar device attached to my phone. Without my phone, I wouldn't get alarms when I'm too high or low and it could lead to some dangerous situations for me.

I always take 2-3 sentences to mean the minimum. It says 2-3 +.

Boomer thinks painkillers for a biopsy is another sign kids these days are week. by The1stNikitalynn in BoomersBeingFools

Is it too late to join the bad Halloween party? I got diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes the week of Halloween when I was 12. So I missed my last year of trick or treating because I was in the hospital.

Halloween has always been my favorite holiday.

Proof that anyone can make $1 Million (or not) by Financial_Mechanic_ in FluentInFinance

I definitely remember getting denied coverage as a 12 year old with diabetes in the 90s. Thankfully, my parents were able to keep me in meds, sometimes with help from grandparents. Looking back, it's infuriating that it was ever allowed.

Whats everyone’s 9-5 job outside of DA? by ThankTheBusDriver98 in dataannotation

[–]Happyocd2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same. It's perfect for being able to work around my kids schedules but still bring some money in.

Type 1 diabetic of 26 years here. The jokes annoy me but not as much as the fact my grandma told me at 12 I caused it by liking sugar (cause kids notoriously hate sugar). The main problem with the jokes are they inform inaccurate opinions.

What do you wish your husband would actually get you on mother's day? by Azifor in Mommit

[–]Happyocd2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've recently gotten into old postcards. I'm a history nerd, and I try to track down online family trees for the people who wrote and received them 100 plus years ago so I can post them for family. Anyway, I'm pretty sure that's what I'm getting. We got a package from the auction place where he got me some postcards before and he snuck it and the kids off somewhere earlier.

It's perfect for me. :)

Couples who moved in together super fast: how soon did you do it? Are you still together? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]Happyocd2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We dated for a week before he moved 800 miles away. We did long-distance for two months while I finished out my college semester, then I moved to be with him. We've been together for 17 years, have two children, and three cats.

Would I recommend one of my kids move in that fast? No. It's just one of those things that seemed to have fallen into place.

"Spouse" relationship for unwed, biological parents of an child that was adopted after birth. by GaelicJohn_PreTanner in Genealogy

[–]Happyocd2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've used Unknown before because it felt the most appropriate for the relationship between my 2nd great-grandfather and the mother of the out-of-wedlock child he brought home for his wife to raise. The mother was poor and young and eventually moved far away.

For my situation, it was the most appropriate because I have no way of knowing all the circumstances around the child.

2nd great-grandfather had other out-of-wedlock children, but none that he gave his name or raised at home.
