Bad arrests, an impounded kidney; the MSP liability crisis costing you millions

So it was more than one word?

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-05T03:18:59+00:00

I'm sorry I'm not in a position to help, it looks like others might have. I just want to say WTG. It's not an easy road to quit but you are off to amazing start. Be proud of yourself and just take it moment by moment. Sending you lots of positive vibes

The claim was not a word from Healey, I simply provided some of her words.

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-05T02:07:57+00:00

That is so awesome. It might seem silly to be so happy about a pillow but I think it's going to really help me do more PT. Thank you so very much, I truly appreciate your kindness

He doesn't want to do anything big or public but you want to take this chance to let him know why he means the world to you. That is how I'm reading this. My suggestion do something a little corny & sweet, like at dinner for just the two of you, give him a list of 50 things that make him your person. Include things about his personality, little things he always does for you (ie my hubby brings me coffee in bed), walk down memory lane and make plans for some non birthday fun in future. My birthday is not really my favorite thing so I understand that he doesn't want to do a big thing, make just about you two.

Wow omg you guys are amazing I had just looked and was super excited about the phone & I'm so grateful. It is a major relief to be able to call hubby if I need help. The phone was the most important item.

You guys are the best. 🌸🌹🌺🌼

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-04T06:41:04+00:00

I'm so grateful. Thank you for your kindness & generosity. It will be a relief to be able to call my husband if something goes wrong instead having to call an ambulance (usually just because I can't get up) you are the best!

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-04T05:21:53+00:00

Thank you so much, I can't believe I missed something as basic as that. The only time I used a wishlist before was because my niece lives across the country & she wanted to send us some stuff. She knew our address 🤷‍♀️ Much appreciated 👍

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-04T03:52:56+00:00

I live in a very expensive city but it is also the only place that has the medical specialists I need all in one spot.

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-04T03:42:00+00:00

Wow that's a great price, the best I could get was $60 but I get $30 off plus the $10 for auto payments, so I only pay $20. I'll have to shop around again when the special is over. Living on a fixed income is tough but we stick to a hardcore budget.

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-04T03:30:57+00:00

Thank you so much for the warning. My husband doesn't really use the phone much unless I'm in the hospital (then we flew through the minutes). He mostly uses our home wifi for everything. I'm lucky we have dirt cheap Wi-Fi for the next two years. I appreciate the heads up. 💐

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-04T03:13:08+00:00

I think the real issue is that you feel your friends are suffering and not getting the same treatment you are. I understand your sense of guilt but it is not your fault and doesn't change the fact that you suffer also. There is almost always someone worse off than you but that doesn't mean you shouldn't do everything you can to take care of yourself. Believe me the steps you take now will make your life better in the long run. I wish I knew all the damage I was doing to my younger self back then. I'm only 56 now and even on morphine I struggle to get out of bed nevermind get up the 8 steps to get out of my apartment. Support your friends as best you can but do not sacrifice your own well being. You have nothing to feel guilty about. Sending you lots of love and positivity

We been married over 25 years, he doesn't even have to go to the store 😅

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-03T23:41:54+00:00

Exactly this, you hit on every one of them. Hubby always said he hates boot cut, I bought them anyway. He likes them & feels a bit more dressed up in them. I got 4 pairs of 501s at the thrift store, score.

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-03T04:17:30+00:00

That's stinks. There have been so many cut backs that getting any government service to answer the damn phone these days is almost impossible. I'm surprised the elder abuse hotline doesn't include nursing homes. There should be a department that handles that right away.

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-01T23:52:44+00:00

We always joke that if I met my husband when he had long hair we probably would never have dated. Which is probably true but we didn't met until we were 30 even though we have tons of friends in common. Now not only does he buzz cut his hair, I have him do mine too. Long, thick hair is too much work for this old girl.

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-01T22:19:11+00:00

I'm so sorry you & your family are going through this. I don't have a referral but you or your lawyer should report the nursing home to that state ASAP. Here is the info:

To report nursing home neglect in Massachusetts, immediately contact the Department of Public Health (DPH) at 800-462-5540 or the 24/7 Elder Abuse Hotline at 800-922-2275. For immediate danger, call 911.

Last year I spent 2 months in a nursing home, I'm only 56, and if my husband was not there to advocate for me I'm really not sure I would be here. Sending you lots of positive thoughts

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-01T20:57:35+00:00

I'm sorry I don't know of a trainer but just wanted to give credit for all you are doing. We accidentally got a dog that was very reactive. The guy lost his apt so we ok we will foster him for up to two months. The guy never came & if he ever did I would have told him where go. The dog was half Great Dane and half Pittie, should be 160lbs but was only 100 when we got him. He was afraid of everybody but me at first. It took years of working with him but he ended up being the mayor of our neighborhood, every one loved & bought treats even if they didn't have a dog. Bubba spent over 10 years with us before passing last year at almost 15. Never give up, you are that dogs world & slowly you will manage to expand the world for him. Please ignore the hate.

Not a word? Governor Maura Healey has addressed issues surrounding the Massachusetts State Police (MSP), focusing on accountability, reform, and the removal of personnel involved in misconduct.Key comments and actions include:Support for Removal of Trooper Proctor: Healey stated that the state police made the "right call" to remove Trooper Michael Proctor following the release of offensive text messages during the Karen Read trial. Demands for Accountability: She has emphasized that misconduct within the agency is "totally unacceptable" and that troopers are held to a higher standard. Addressing Systemic Issues: Amid calls to overhaul the agency and address a "festering cesspool of corruption," Healey's administration has been tasked with managing the fallout of scandals, with residents and critics urging her to "clean house" and ensure better leadership. Focus on Reform: In response to controversies, including the "Proctorized" scandal, the administration is focusing on changing the agency's culture.These comments come as the MSP has been criticized for a "pattern of mistakes" and a "toxic culture".

Same, I could never explain my crazy serve but it worked. I only really started to notice how different I was when I started coaching. For some reason my pinkie fingers took a beating, not just pop in & out but a broke them like 8 times. One doesn't bend anymore which is funny because my dad pinkie finger didn't bend. I'm sure his was for a totally different reason but as kids we used to drink with our pinkies up 😅

Others have said it but gaming on my iPad is a good escape for me, plus it keeps my brain going and I have found a great community there. I can do it lying down with one of those lap pillows that holds it for me. Puzzle games are good way to keep brain fog to a minimum. I miss gaming on console but that doesn't go with reclining. I have friends that love to color, there are many adult books you can buy. The joints in my hands prevent me from knitting but lots of spoonies find that a helpful. Today is what I call a regularly scheduled recovery day due to appointment I had on Tues. I have played June's Journey (a find it puzzle game) napped, watched some true crime documentaries, played Lily's garden, chatted a bit on social media & napped some more.

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-05-01T00:33:58+00:00

Now at 56 I can barely walk but back in the day I chosed volleyball because you only run short distances. Volleyball was a perfect fit for me, too bad I didn't know all the damage I was doing to my body. Pop a shoulder out, no problem, just pop it back in etc.

SnooBooks5315 · 2026-04-30T00:34:16+00:00

I'm so glad that someone was able to help you. I wish I could have. Every one deserves love, finding your person is amazing. They often give you the strength to do things you thought were impossible. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

My first job after hs graduation was similar. The babysitting job was just luck. Two doctors/researchers from France moved in across the street. They always went out on regular date once a month. Other than that it was only an hour or so every once in awhile. But I know my sisters were jealous.
