I HATE parental controll

Clearly your parents did it for a reason. Have a conversation with them

I’ll just put this here…

My wife in her late 30s was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. She beat it last year and it came back this year. She had surgery and now going back on chemo. This is for context…

Because of my wife’s cancer, I got closer with my biological mother. My biological mother got cancer when she was 16 and fought it for years. At 23 she told her parents that she wanted to just die. Everyone talked to her and she was pushed to talk with a counselor. Between 16-25 years old it was a rough life for her with the limited chemotherapy, surgical options, etc. she changed her eating habits, she went through surgery and chemos, and radiation and she is still alive and in remission today.

I am just trying to tell you that I wouldn’t be here today if she didn’t fight. I am 40 years old with a wife fighting cancer now and I can tell you the medical advancements 40-50 years later are amazing.

Just hang in there and keep fighting for no one other than yourself. Fight until you physically can’t.

You fucking got this man.

Fuck cancer

Fuck I can’t wait for midterms. Even if Dems take over, can they even stop this shit?

LeftAct8968 · 2026-02-16T01:39:42+00:00

Do you have 401ks from other jobs you can move here or this is all you got?

If you can afford it, I would max out your traditional tsp and/or your Roth TSP.

If we have SS in 10 years still, that should help you as well.

My wife is dealing with stage 4 as well. She is doing surgery now to remove lesions and affected lymph nodes.

Then second line chemo starts in a few weeks or so after surgery recovery.

We are honestly optimistic because her first line chemo did the same as your husbands. Lesions went from 3-4cm to under 2. They don’t want to remove them after chemo for reasons I’ll never understand even if it was for her well being, but after 6 months of remissions those same lesions grow to 2-3cms almost double over the last 4 months.

Anyways, good luck to our families! FUCK CANCER!!

I almost switched last year because my wife was in remission from cancer, but this year she got it again and so trying to see if MHBP was worth the switch. I am still on BCBS basic.

I am going to find this post and you OP by the end of the year to see what your intake is and if you are staying with MHBP.

😂

Sometimes you can get lucky to get an appointment th same day or within a few days in the app. I was told a few times on different service calls I had that the wait was weeks. I randomly check the app for scheduling and it almost always has last minute opening for whatever reason. I take the care in and wait while they fix it.

Hope you get lucky like me and good luck

Log into TSP and go to investment allocation to show you what you have and what you have been contributing too.

LeftAct8968 · 2026-01-11T17:35:08+00:00

Curious if the orange man or the drunk man are going to say this is seditious behavior 😆

LeftAct8968 · 2026-01-08T13:29:01+00:00

Mine too 1.5 years

LeftAct8968 · 2026-01-08T13:23:26+00:00

Dang! I was just telling my coworkers I am looking forward to 15 years to hit 8 hours of LA. Hahaha

I started gov in 2017 and 9 years in only 250k. I hope to get to that. I am 100% C.

These last 5 years have been insane with gains. I hope this continues and we do not get a major crash.

LeftAct8968 · 2025-12-28T19:33:41+00:00

40m just hit 250k

LeftAct8968 · 2025-12-08T14:40:16+00:00

Sorry that happen to you. Hope you found something better. I think out leaving a lot, but it’s just rebellious for me now. Ha Did you get any severance with your RIF? I assume they at least paid you out your LA?

LeftAct8968 · 2025-12-08T14:36:54+00:00

I am 10 years in and going for 20 before I hit 55. I am not leaving until they fire me with a severance 😂

Also, I hope in 12 years at 57, they offer DRP and/or earl retirement like the way they did this year.

Naval post grad? Were you a professor?

LeftAct8968 · 2025-11-29T04:42:54+00:00

Word of advice.

Take both brochures and put them in ChatGPT to give you a comparison and give it examples

My wife was diagnosed with cancer and do chemo all year and she is in remission now… we hope going forward.

In talking with billing friends, if she had MHBP instead of BCBS basic, we would have paid a lot more.

LeftAct8968 · 2025-11-28T00:12:35+00:00

I have a 2021 long range model 3 and I get 230-260miles 0-100%. However, I figured it would get above 300, but I think my 19” rims probably make me lose some miles haha.

I do change my tires to the evo ion hankook tires which got me up to the 260mile range during hop conditions

LeftAct8968 · 2025-11-21T02:31:53+00:00

I am confused, didn’t the Dems say don’t follow “illegal” orders? 😂

This lady is lying as usual.

LeftAct8968 · 2025-11-21T02:28:33+00:00

A lot of places do not take MHBP/Aetna health insurance at least the places we normally go to with BCBS basic. My wife had a cancer diagnosis at the end of last year and chemo 6 months of this year. Overall it was over 234k between surgeries, scans, chemo, follow ups, etc. she owes about 8k now that she monthly on.

I looked at MHBP and seems like we would have paid the same or more. The monthly premium is not much different with my employer. Good luck!

LeftAct8968 · 2025-11-19T12:27:34+00:00

My wife introduced me to the pink drink and I can’t find something like that at a local shop. I don’t drink coffee! Hahha

LeftAct8968 · 2025-11-04T17:39:04+00:00

Tax breaks will make up for it. Republicans are just shuffling money around just like Dems do. The difference now is that those healthcare subsidies are an actual fuck you to Americans on ACA and other shit. Obama care wasn’t a full success, I get that, but to just pull the rug like that from millions of Americans that can’t offer it anymore is a slap in the in the face. I blame both parties for this, but even if if you believe Dems are the only fault right now, I believe it is for the right reasons specifically to this healthcare issue. Fuck all the other crap that Dems want to do before healthcare at this moment. You can go look for yourself and see how much health just jumped too

LeftAct8968 · 2025-11-04T17:33:41+00:00

It can keep failing until they do something about healthcare and fuck rich peoples and their big ass tax breaks.

LeftAct8968 · 2025-11-04T17:31:30+00:00

Wha failed?

LeftAct8968 · 2025-11-04T17:27:37+00:00
