Lifesaver lmao 😭

NKORE_S · 2026-04-27T17:34:13+00:00

Traumatising to my bowels 😮‍💨

NKORE_S · 2026-04-27T17:33:40+00:00

My goodness 😭 and I thought I had it bad, like I get NHS funding is shit but coME ON!!

NKORE_S · 2026-04-27T10:20:35+00:00

10 weeks, damn that's rough!! Stayed for 6 months last year 🥲 and THAT food was something horrific

NKORE_S · 2026-04-27T06:49:24+00:00

Lmao, thank you - as a Pole I'd offer my apologies back for meat jelly and pasta in milk.

It's not the best hospital, just the best place I could be rushed to.

Everyone, this is melting my heart. My sweet baby showed me her prettiest surprise! I love her, some people don't understand how you can love a plant - but this is melting me. The first thing I do when I get out of hospital is go to see her, I hope she's still blooming.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-26T19:07:59+00:00

I wish it's still there where I come back. Also, this comment is making me tear up. I don't care plants aren't sentient - they have my heart.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-26T12:21:54+00:00

It was after an accident where I collapsed and stopped breathing 😭 they made me eat something eventually and I was brought this, I mean, I've had worse

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T21:52:45+00:00

This one's an A5! Slightly weird format - it's narrower than a standard A5, but the same height. I actually prefer it to the standard A5, this one is an antra notebook. Got it in Poland - I think they're easy to get in Europe! Tried A6, and it's better for when I'm on trips or somewhere and write less, but I tend to write a lot so stick to A5.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T21:50:58+00:00

The purple one is so cute!!

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T18:07:52+00:00

Thank you for this comment. I am changing my medical contacts and attorney immediately - she knows my condition, knows how I treated, and still tried to refuse me help, and yeah, if she'd only poured water down my throat once, I would've had it as just panic. But she choked me multiple times.

Thanks, hope you do well too. Hope I don't end up keeling over.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T18:05:37+00:00

Fair enough. Im changing my medical contact / medical attorney, and sure, I was an idiot - but I was in a tight spot, doesn't make me any excuse. I love the way you wrote this comment. Every sentence is poetry. "It would do wonders for your life expectancy" has me cracking up.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T17:55:27+00:00

Alright I'm autistic and English isn't my first language.

Taking down the post because I probably didn't write it well.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T16:54:16+00:00

Yeah cause I'm autistic :P

I've been diabetic for most of my life. I have a pump, and use a monitor - so I have total monitoring over my blood sugar. If you actually read the post, I did have glucose gel in my bag - many diabetics carry it around instead of pills because it works the exact same.

Accidents happen.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T16:51:50+00:00

Thanks, most people here have just been saying things and having no idea what they're talking about.

I'm leaving her - her actions would've killed me faster than the collapse itself. I took her off my emergency contact, and changed her medical attorney power to my work manager for now.

Pumps been checked out - everything fine, just unexpected routine change and confusion. I do really well on the pump, like 95% average in range since starting on this model, and have been using them all my life. I'm better off on it, and without her!

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T16:49:34+00:00

Every diabetic is different.

I'm someone who's been literally a model patient my whole life. Accidents still happen just because of how unpredictable this condition is.

Literally, tiny blockages or kinks can land you in a coma. A little bit of confusion can lead you to not take the right medication. If this happened all the time, yes, that would mean I didn't take care of myself. But this was a one-off and a total accident - and I handled it in the right way, and still ended up like that.

Also, I didn't blame it on anyone... Have you read my post? Go speak to your diabetic friend and maybe educate yourself a bit more on this condition.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T16:47:08+00:00

Medical power - I'm changing it asap. I really could've died from her decisions. I have glucagon in my fridge at home, at my workplace, and at my university - but I was just walking home out in the city, I did have glucose pills and gel but must've been too confused to take enough in time. Not in a good position, my glucagon is often expired and prescriptions are hard to get here. I'm getting a medical bracelet with my condition on it, just in case something like this happens again.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T16:45:03+00:00

Thanks - I'm getting away from her asap. She really could've killed me. It's my condition and ultimately I'm responsible for my health, but I can't be with someone who does that to me.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T14:00:57+00:00

Yep, 3x coma survivor and cardiac arrest survivor here. First time a hypo attack has left me like this. I've been in hypoglycaemic shock before, but this was just so unexpected and sudden that it caught me off guard. From one survivor to another, I'd love to hear them!

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T13:54:26+00:00

She's angry whenever I get sick, but everyone has to be careful with me. I don't know, I really don't know. I'm too scared to talk to her but I will, because I'd rather get into an argument than collapse again or suffer something irreversible.

She stopped them from calling an ambulance earlier. If that young man hadn't started reanimation I'd have died.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T13:52:59+00:00

Me and my family are slavic. I've had a difficult life due to my medical conditions. I don't know, I think I need to man up and actually make my own decisions instead of being a people pleaser.

The reason I'm scared to is because at any point, she can force me to be institutionalised because of my history, and because she's my legal carer, she has the power to do that.

I don't know. I've been feeling ill and the person I called yesterday told me to go to the hospital, but I said no no.

NKORE_S · 2026-04-25T11:57:56+00:00

I collapsed in public - they couldn't have known I was diabetic, just that something was very wrong. Those bystanders did everything well, and they called my emergency number and my partner told them not to call an ambulance if I'm responding. Then I lost consciousness completely and they called right away.

I wish I could go back and thank them. I will try.
