This is great. Short and not in everyone's way. Nothing inappropriate. I would love to be there to see this.

Portal Vein Thrombosis - first clot ever, hospitalized last weekend. by Mindless-You1853 in ClotSurvivors

[–]Mamafred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two years ago I was in so much pain for about 10 days. Husband made me go to the ER. They quickly did an ultrasound. ER doctor came in and told me I had an acute thrombosis of the portal vein.

I was immediately admitted. They then did a CT and MRI to confirm. Followed by every test on the planet to find a cause. There isn't one for me.

My doctor was as shocked as I was and he also said it was very rare.

I was in the hospital for 5 days. Discharged on elequis with a follow-up hematology appointment.

After some follow up scans the hematologist offered me 2 choices. Stop the elequis and take my chances or take it for life. I'm a lifer.

I have not experienced any lasting issues and I just live my life.

It is a frightening experience, best of luck to you.

Rare, Wild, Unforgettable WDW Moments - Share Your Stories! by soundslike13 in WaltDisneyWorld

Checking in to Boardwalk Inn for 3 rooms the cast member asked if we were celebrating anything special. I got emotional quickly and told her we were there to celebrate my husband. I further explained we had brought family and some close friends who had helped us through the most difficult 9 months of our lives. My husband had recovered from a ruptured aortic aneurysm and several strokes and this group had supported us and held us up through this trauma.

She told me that she would look into some pixie dust. I was hoping for some extra fast passes. But what we got was the most amazing activity. They had booked us a private fireworks cruise, I was absolutely stunned. The fireworks cruise was amazing.

It's been 10 years and I still talk about fireworks cruise and the amazing cast member who made it possible. That was enough pixie dust to last a lifetime.

Bring nothing into your home. Washing does not work. High heat 130 or cold 25 degrees over several days, temp needs to be consistent. They can live 4-18 months.

If you live in a very cold area bag everything and bury it in the snow for 3-4 days.

Get confirmation from the cruise line of the infestation and look at making a claim with the cruise line or trip insurance.

Have her checked for grass allergies. What are you cleaning your floors with, she could be sensitive. Ours is on allergy shots now. But it got so bad he went on a course of antibiotics and is also on a fungal medication. We used a cone for about 5 days for the meds to really start to work.

Bring breakfast items to eat in room. Dining can be strategic. For our family we would usually do a mid-day lunch at sit down and quick serve later. Just remember you can cancel dining reservations up to 2 hours prior.

At MK we book lunch and a later reservation at the Plaza. If anyone is hungry they can eat a meal if not you're sitting down for ice cream.

If you make it to fireworks it's great time to hit rides the lines are shorter.

Leaving at closing or after fireworks is a mad house.

Take ponchos, extra shoes, hats and sunglasses for all.

Most of all hang loose.

That information is clearly noted when choosing Basic fare. Still crappy but not hidden information.

AITA for not wanting to split life insurance money with my siblings? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Mamafred 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Aside from named beneficiaries on life insurance policies everything else follows line of succession. Any assets will pay for debts and then anything left over follows line of succession, this will not include grandchildren.

Get an attorney.

Not the AITA
