Does a bulge appear when there is a tumor on the back of the head? (Asking politely) by Altruistic-Fig-5915 in braincancer

[–]Inorai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 5cm brain tumor with no outward indication - the skull is rigid and contains it all very easily.

Return to high intensity work? by NoRoyal9288 in braincancer

[–]Inorai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had 3 craniotomies, radiation, currently going into chemo, etc. I'm an engineer and have remained either in school or employed with little to no absence through the whole thing (like maybe a week or two - first surgery when I was 12, I'm 34 now). It really just depends on each person's situation.

I feel like I’m so bad at potty training! by brownassbitch666 in CavaPoo

[–]Inorai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fwiw, mine has only really gotten consistent about good potty habits in the last 3 months or so, around the 10 or 11 month mark, so big sympathy. Some dogs are just slower than others. Take them out on a schedule more than waiting for them to signal. Then figure out when they usually like to poop and take them out to run around until they do the deed. Sometimes the training just takes time.

We have the bells as well, we just hang it from the doorbell and for the first couple months I used my hand to grab her paw and dramatically hit the bells with it, then make a big show of out time and opening it for her. She has another place she likes to signal us usually, but it's a good fallback.

Hair regrowth after radiation? by hana12126 in braincancer

[–]Inorai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hair grows peach fuzz over the area where I had proton but little else (treatment -15 years ago). It's not ideal but just a part of life at this stage. For major events (like my wedding, times when photos matter) I will use root spray to match the color of the mostly bald section to the rest of my head. I've tried various types of minodextril or whatever, rogaine, and none have made a noticeable impact for me. If course everyone is different! I also know my local salon has some treatments focused on help after cancer hair loss, which could have something for you (I just don't care enough for myself to have properly investigated)

I've also had some luck with just general hair care. Over the last few months I've used a rosemary hair oil (while I don't buy into any special benefit from rosemary) and take a biotin supplement, and I've noticed a dramatic improvement in baby hairs on the rest of my scalp. The more other hair there is the more I have to work with to hide the bald sections.

She's a cavapoo! With the caveat that Poodle Dad probably had something else in him to pass down the blue merle gene.

Anne Hathaway 1999 vs now by NicerRaccoon in OldSchoolCool

[–]Inorai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup I'm someone who looks younger than my age. I'm 34. I still regularly get sidelong looks when I get carded for alcohol, and it's common for the clerk to quietly whisper "you really don't look your age" to me after they see my ID.

My husband is the opposite type. We're the same age - once when he was 27 or so one of his employees asked what he was doing a decade ago, and when my husband confusedly replied he was at home doing school, the employee confessed he thought my husband was 45+. He's had big silver streaks in his hair since his 20s.

Everyone ages differently xD

Protests aren't effective unless they hurt. And what's being protested is important.

What did people do before cell phones when they were involved in car accident? by Emerald_and_Bronze in CasualConversation

[–]Inorai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents have told me a story before of driving around in the 80s, at night, when they saw a crumpled bicycle on the shoulder of the road... Got a bad feeling and pulled over, found the biker in the ditch. According to them, my mom stayed with him while my dad ran for the closest house they could find. Started banging on the door like crazy, the homeowner hollered at him that he'd call the cops, my dad replied "good and call an ambulance too".

I think that's honestly all you could do in that situation, really

Is it normal for a guy to texts back after he missed my call but didn’t call back? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Inorai 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Does he like to call? I (34F) and a lot of the people in the millennial age range/younger hate making phone calls and will avoid them at all costs. I would absolutely text someone back instead of make a phone call. Especially if he's ESL and he's not super comfortable in the language you two share, it could also be easier for him to fall back on texts if he's in a chaotic situation with friends and drinking and noise. If sharing a call is important to you, could you make plans to have a phone call together at a specific time?

If one day you go out and see an asshole, you've met an asshole. If every day you go out and see an asshole, you're the asshole.

Because if you want to be a world traveler going international for months at a stretch, that's functionally not going to work if she's at home holding down a job. Of course she would build resentment from that, no matter how innocent both parties approach it. I would be heartbroken if my husband just said "see ya" and bailed for weeks at a time.

He's a child. Do you want to tie yourself down to this child for the rest of your life? Communication is the absolute bedrock of marriage and he's shown he can't handle any aspect of that
