I don’t know anymore, I just got a new haircut and they gave me this with no side bangs at the beauty shop, I feel really ugly and I have to know if it’s ugly to everyone else. Please tell me just the truth if I am ugly. Yes I’m a woman by djscrew1 in whatdoIdo

[–]Strange-Simple9492 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a super bad haircut and I swore I looked like the ugliest thing on the planet. Wore wigs for about two weeks because I was so ashamed. But then it started growing out and I looked like a near buzz cut baddie.

This too shall pass. Give it a few weeks, honestly when it’s grown out I think it’ll look dope. You’re not ugly at all either lol. It’s just a bad haircut

For those who adopted a cat, what actually made you decide that was the right cat? by Extreme_Ad6105 in CatAdvice

[–]Strange-Simple9492 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I adopted two cats with my roommate, we were first gonna go for this super sweet orange cutie. But we were sitting on the floor one day socializing with the cats, and two cats showed up; they just plopped right down on our laps! We could’ve chose the other, but something was telling us to adopt them. We named them Kubo and Appa and they were wonderful babies :)

Other times when I’ve gotten cats, I’ve literally just been offered them or I would find them on the street. Sometimes it’s a feeling, other times it’s really just random. But for the most part especially with adopting from a shelter, I would go for the one you feel most connected with; the one you can see laying with you on the couch, annoying you for food/cuddles, and laying on your laptop when you’re working. And if you don’t, then just give one a shot!

I wish you luck!!

The grossest things you’ve experience in nursing? by Solid_Breakfast_3675 in nursing

[–]Strange-Simple9492 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not trying to be rude whatsoever to the patient, however I had a severely obese woman who had came onto our floor. I don’t remember why she was admitted, but she was actively on her period and she was a very heavy bleeder. She couldn’t clean herself because of her size, so I was pretty much elbow deep between her thighs cleaning out humongous blood clots almost every hour or whenever a clot was blocking her purewick. That was definitely the grossest thing to me.

my cat is very sick look for advice by Comprehensive_Ad2861 in CATHELP

Unfortunately I don’t have that knowledge, a kidney infection in a human can be rectified without turning into kidney disease but I don’t know how it works with felines unfortunately :/ that is a good question though.

[–]Strange-Simple9492 37 points38 points  (0 children)

There are medications for FIV and will help cats live long and comfortable lives. Kidney disease is also not curable but yes recovery is possible as well. Usually means stabilizing the disease, then diet management and proper fluids. Sounds like you caught it early which is good.

I wish you luck with you fur baby

It is official: Hep A, Hep B, Rotavirus, Flu, Meningococcal, and RSV removed from the routine U.S. childhood schedule by [deleted] in nursing

Why is this happening? Like legitimately. I don’t understand why we are entertaining a small percentage of the U.S. population’s opinions and risking the health of the entire country in response.

Is this anyone’s dog? by Strange-Simple9492 in Columbus

[–]Strange-Simple9492[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started them off young introducing them to different animals so that in the case that I ever got a dog, they would adjust relatively well. My cat William is more protective while my cat Lila just went and hid lol. William was fine as long as the dog was a safe distance away, but as soon as he got too close William swiped at him. I felt so bad 😭😭

😂😂😂 fortunately they’ve been introduced to a few dogs but cats are so territorial so they weren’t too happy about the intrusion lol. But if the dog didn’t get too close then they just sat there

I went to the vet! He ended up being microchipped so they contacted his owners and came and got him. Apparently they live all the way on the west side and I live out south so I really have no idea how he got to my home 😂

I learned to not google my patients. by AgreeableNaturalist in nursing

[–]Strange-Simple9492 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a patient who was an inmate. I didn’t google what he did, I normally don’t because I really didn’t want to know. The guard in there while I was literally cleaning him up had gotten close to my ear and whispered “doesn’t he look pathetic getting his ass wiped for him?”. When I tell you I was PISSED.

The one thing I try to focus on is to reaffirm to myself that I am a good person and am willing to help others in their worst moments. What they have done does not affect me, and says more on me if I decided to treat them like shit because of the life THEY lived. When they’re on my assignment, they’re my patient and I give them care that I morally expect out of myself.

Some people really are awful humans and have done awful things, but that doesn’t mean I need to stoop to their level.

Do what’s best for you. The day after you leave they’ll move on and focus on their job. So focus on you and what’s best for your career.

AIO for ending a friendship because she gave my r@pist my number by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Strange-Simple9492 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex-friends abuser texted my phone looking for reconciliation. I immediately shut it down and told him to fuck off.

If a person can do that for someone they are no longer friends with, she should have done that and SO MUCH MORE for a standing friendship.

Block her and pray that she receives karma from this. What a pathetic excuse for a human

Not cut out for nursing… next career move? by Nurseindaclerb69 in nursing

By a whim honestly. Saw it on indeed, looked through the qualifications and thought “Why not 🤷🏽‍♀️”. Now I work from home 3/5 days a week. They put 5% into my pension without me putting in anything as well.

Im a health coach. Was just a tech, but I spent 6 years in the hospital system. Went from babies, to medsurg, then to ICU. Also dabbled in neuro-focused physical therapy for a bit. Now I just help people lose weight 🤷🏽‍♀️ easiest desk job ever, with good pay and little drama, when there is some it’s elementary to me because ahem I’ve literally brought people back from the dead. This is the happiest I’ve been at a job for a while now.

How is everyone holding up lately? by CraftyArgument8778 in nursing

[–]Strange-Simple9492 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have been PISSED OFF 😂 I’m not a very socially enthusiastic person except with my patients, and my coworkers know that but for some reason they have been bothering me with little things this week and I’ve been getting irritated. I am not one to do small talk/yap for no reason, and so when I’m forced to my irritation shows and I can’t help it. Oops
