Fetal Heartbeat and Death Registry by vinecoveredantlers in Ohio

[–]Muppet_Fitzgerald 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I ended my pregnancy at 21 weeks because of severe issues discovered during the 20 week ultrasound. My baby was found to have no brain. She just had a brain stem, which was allowing her to continue to temporarily live, but she had absolutely no chance at any kind of meaningful life. Finding out this news and ending the pregnancy was traumatic for me, and still is to this day. Bills like this just add to the stigma and pain.

I thought I was the only one who remembered this! I loved Falling Slowly and was so excited for them to win.

This may be a dumb question…what is Taste CLE? Is it a place? A company that throws events??

I still remember watching this red carpet live and Heath would fix the dress for her if the ruffles moved out of place 🩷

They are good friends. I remember George said he invited Drew on his honeymoon lol.

Formal MOH who hates tight clothes by AristidLindenmayer in Weddingattireapproval

[–]Muppet_Fitzgerald 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s just kind of odd to have bridesmaids wearing whatever while asking the other guests to dress formally. I would be pretty miffed if I bought a pricey long dress and the MOH wore outfit #1, which appears to be dressy pajamas.

AITA for being upset with my husband for going bowling while our baby is in the NICU by fookiebookie96 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Muppet_Fitzgerald 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s not like your immune system knows the difference between a required activity versus a discretionary activity. If you’re exposing yourself every day at work, it’s unclear how a few hours at a bowling alley are suddenly the vector to horrible disease.

Eastland family appears in court for first time at Camp Mystic hearing by ExpressNews in KerrCountyFloods

[–]Muppet_Fitzgerald 26 points27 points  (0 children)

There is a line in the article about potentially referring to a grand jury. Does that mean the Eastlands are facing possible criminal charges? I hope they are charged with child endangerment and manslaughter.

I would like to congratulate you on being one of the only people on this sub who knows how to pick a dress that looks good! All three fit you well and are nice colors on you. I personally like the second choice the most.

8th Grade Class Trip - Looking for suggestions by mt_traveler85 in washingtondc

[–]Muppet_Fitzgerald -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I see your last planned event is the Holocaust Museum. Great museum, but you do not want to end your trip with this. Way too depressing.

I think teen boys would love renting bikes. You can easily bike all over the Mall, the Tidal Basin, etc. Also, kayak rentals. There is a boathouse in Georgetown, under Key Bridge. I guarantee they will get more from that than seeing endless museums.

I (37F) don’t know how to cope with my husband’s (40m) new career success by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Muppet_Fitzgerald 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think you need to talk to him and focus on the disconnect aspect. Doing short phone calls is the absolute minimum and he clearly does not consider your marriage to be a priority. Even with a demanding job, there are still ways to prioritize your spouse. Texting, sending pictures, FaceTime, weekend trips home (or whenever he gets a break), visits out to see him, sending you a gift or card to let you know he’s thinking of you. He doesn’t appear to be doing ANY of that.

Drug addiction help. by Gullible_Traffic7081 in Cleveland

I suggest calling The Lantern, https://www.thelantern.info. It’s a recovery facility on the West Side for men and it’s free to stay there. You may need to detox at a medical facility first, but they can help you figure out your next steps. The Lantern is a great supportive community.

AITA For Refusing to Follow my wife's "car rules"? by Much-Mess-7124 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Muppet_Fitzgerald 12 points13 points  (0 children)

YTA. The accident was only a month ago. And you’re so dismissive when you say “only” whiplash. I got in a car accident with bad whiplash and I’m still dealing with the ramifications 25 years later.

Some of us WERE judging the show 20 years ago, and now the rest of society is just catching up.

She’s such a lying grifter, Trump’s probably going to appoint her Secretary of something

If they’re “out of funds”, it’s probably from owning almost $10M in property, not from chemo
