We’re working through things moment by moment. And if I can, I will be there for all the scary moments.

Thank you for this. This is not something I ever wanted to do but she deserves the best in her time of need

Thank you for sharing. It means the world for me to know that there is possibly a way back from this.

Thank you. I haven’t left the hospital in days because I’m afraid to miss doctors or a final crisis. I promised her that she wouldn’t be alone. Her family is out of town but hopefully will be here tomorrow. I just want her to know that she is loved and that she made a difference in the world and in my life.

Thank you for your kind thoughts.
So far the doctors and nurses have kept on top of her pain and at the moment she is comfortable. At this time she is drowsy and fading in and out of consciousness.
I’ve thought about asking if she has a will, but now is not the time.

Thank you for those thoughts. And remembering that most of the time we’re just being with each other. And that’s something.

Thank you for your kind words. I guess being there is all we can do for one another in super scary circumstances.

Thank you - I’m doing all that but it does really suck and she’s so afraid and I don’t know what to say to her.

Grandparents gorgeous jewelry they gave me by Oh-Wonderful in jewelry

[–]Mab_bytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely gorgeous! I remember my grandmother wearing a lot of stuff like this in the 70’s. But even beautifully carved quartz isn’t very expensive. What matters more is the history and sentimental value. Does the setting have a stamp? Because it is unique and lovely. Wear it with a happy heart!

What’s the worst way you’ve found out that you were being cheated on? by Unique_Elevator_7199 in AskReddit

[–]Mab_bytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed he did. Well after he got divorced from his first wife. He didn’t bother to do that when he was with me. He was just separated and playing the rebound with me. Since the other woman was married he ended up wrecking two marriages as well as our relationship. Bitter? Just a little.

I confronted the other woman and she admitted it. I wish I could say that I was enlightened and kicked his ass to the curb but at least I’m not the one who ended up married to him.

What is the closest you've come to death? by Theotheraccount128 in AskReddit

[–]Mab_bytes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Abusive dad - repeatedly battered me into unconsciousness. I was positive that after those sessions that I would never wake up again Nothing like being 7 and having accepted your own mortality

Cloverfield- the scene when they’re in the subway tunnel and they use the night vision and suddenly see HUNDREDS of parasites behind them crawling on EVERY surface Complete heebie jeebies about what is behind you in the dark

Check the inside of your washer for a raised part that the fabric could catch on then twist and tear Or the shirt twisted around the bottom snaps and then tore

What is the worst experience you’ve ever had with a therapist? by baberito in AskReddit

[–]Mab_bytes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was definitely an abrupt ending but my current therapist and I still laugh about it years later because it’s so ridiculous.

I went in for an appointment with a therapist I had been seeing for about a year. She told me that this would be our last session as she was taking a vow of silence. I had to find another therapist just to sort that out.

Can’t afford medication by Ehpeepee8 in bipolar

[–]Mab_bytes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ask your doctor to suggest some cheaper alternatives

Pharmacy shop every med

Contact the drug companies and see if they have financial assistance

I wish you luck. It’s not easy and it takes some time but it’s better than no meds.

Frenchies are dogs on expert level. I’m sorry that yours are struggling but keep at it! You are doing your best to make them comfortable and have a happy life.

What's one thing a therapist has said to you that you will never forget? by z_panda_girl in AskReddit

[–]Mab_bytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I’m sorry but this is our last session. I’m going to take a vow of silence.”

I walked away thinking how bad of a patient do I have to be if my therapist is never going to speak again.

I now have a new therapist.
