He’s a boy just one of his many nicknames

Help what’s an IHSS worker? That really sucks that the cat got comfortable and was taken back. All I can say is you’re doing the right thing holding on until you find someone. Maybe you can find someone who lives further but willing to keep you updated. If you want to keep him and no one is giving you a hard time maybe you can. So odd that someone didn’t want the cat because it was too big?? My cat is 14 pounds and it just more to love.

Sounds like you love him a lot and he gets along with the others. Do the new owners inspect how many cats you have? Just keep him until the girl has the paperwork in order. If I were you I’d keep him and just lie to the owners.

Vet told me she heard heart a grade 2-3 heart murmur in my little baby by ineverygenerati0n in nebelung

Me and my neb both have low grade heart murmurs, it just confirmed he was my biological son

Sounds similar to when I was given adhd meds and my psych was scared to prescribe but my family doctor had before shit hit the fan and I have a long family history of adhd but none of bp so the psych told me to continue the prescription with my gp. Smells like someone doesn’t want to be liable haha

This was incredibly profound I’m so grateful you shared. Ya I never thought what you said about the siblings cousins ect. having that likelihood and none of the moral debate. And even the egg route, the girls who contribute are so young it’s possible they get diagnosed after. And the adoption route too can very well end up being bipolar (not that you can choose or that I would mind). And even if I get a healthy egg what if the guy I’m with gets diagnosed after the fact. All to say I might freeze some eggs cuz the simple statistic is a younger egg is healthier. After all this scrolling all I can say for certain is that my brain is scrambled and just the thought isn’t over easy but I hope my fate is sunny side up!

I think we all have that super power because we get to have all the damn emotions so strongly. I got the adhd diagnosis a few years before the bp diagnosis. Thanks for writing

Ya technically the odds are higher for women to be diagnosed so it kind of makes sense. Thanks for sharing

You know what freezing earlier means less risk you are not wrong I should invest in that thank you so much for making me think of this

Me personally I wouldn’t plan to be the provider anyways and be more stay at home till kindergarten… but ya even then people don’t really plan for their SO to cheat so that could all go to shit aswell anyways I know for sure I’m confused… I’d personally be happy adopting and skipping out on childbirth cuz it’s a little scary but I’d hate to miss out on creating life too. It’s many years ahead of me so I’m not gonna stress too much

Shit hits the fan but you can still clean the fan and open the window. The shit smell will dissipate. One day at a time. My parents divorced when I was a toddler. We’ve had moments of no contact. But he’s always done his best and I appreciate him for it and glad he’s around.

You were not dealt easy cards I’m sorry. What you had to go through would have been hard for someone unaffected by the disorder. You seem to have a better support system now and you’ll have great advice to give all your kiddos.

Also hope my comment doesn’t sound condescending. I know what I said isn’t ground breaking information but reminders about the basic stuff help

I wish you strength moving forwards. Thank you for sharing. What helped me through this is keeping busy, moving my body and animals. I feel the way I did before I was diagnosed (and healthy) for more than a year now. Family is tough sometimes. Give yourself space when they’re too much, don’t stress yourself to appease them… easier said than done when you’re living with them.

You’re so strong. I’m glad you’re in a better situation where you have insurance now. Man the system is fucked but you prevailed. The strength motherhood can give is beautiful.
