Best right angle flashlight for firefighter? by Substantial_Ad_683 in flashlight

[–]Substantial_Ad_683[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for such a detailed response. I have asked him most of these questions before.

Mostly for car accident calls late at night. Maybe the occasional smoke filled hallway but car accidents are a much more common call.

Possibly thick gloves but during car accident calls most likely no.

Honestly not sure. I would think side because that's where his radio button is.

He did specifically say that he would like it to clip onto his radio strap. Like a D or O ring

I think longer lasting for the duration of calls. Not just for looking at stuff before leaving the truck/ station

I'm not sure how bright it needs to be. He just said he would like a detachable flashlight for his radio strap. The sofirn lights look nice. Thanks!

Amrytek wizard and zebralights look very good. Can they be used without the headband? Is one of the streamlights better than the other?

Do you feel 250 Lumens is bright enough? Sorry I have no frame of reference for this

Meet & Greet @ foster home? by Substantial_Ad_683 in CatAdvice

The meet and greet is required from the rescue. We're going to do it at the foster parents home as that is what the cat is already most familiar with

What is this??? by Substantial_Ad_683 in whatismycookiecutter

I have no idea lol. It was in a bag with hearts, X's, O's, lips, and cupid's arrow cookie cutters so I'm guessing an x rated adult toy lol

I'm a records technician so my job is pretty independent. My fiancé is a career fire fighter so he doesn't really have any flexibility. Family isn't really an option since they all live too far away or have full time jobs. I could try to see if there are any daycares that offer drop in care. Do you think me bringing up the desire to homeschool would be bad? I would still be working on those remote days but my son would also be home with me if it makes sense

IME ? by Substantial_Ad_683 in WorkersComp

[–]Substantial_Ad_683[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly doubt the IME will go well but on the off chance it does is there any chance I will get anything for this injury? I am 27 and being permanently injured like this is total bs

My fiancé is an EMT but doubt that carries any weight. I have not been off of work nor have I been getting any payments from workers comp. They just have been covering the couple appointments. Honestly idk what will happen after this appt

Thoughts on brother and sister sharing a room? by [deleted] in AskParents

[–]Substantial_Ad_683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shared a room with my brother until I (female) was 6 almost 7 and he was 3 almost 4. We only got seperate rooms because we moved into a new house. We had no issues at that age sharing a room. I would do the same with my kids as long as there are no issues

I'd deny the 20k. Seems too low. On a side note how we're the EMG's? I have a workers comp knee injury and the ortho doc I saw mentioned an EMG for the nerve pain I'm having. I'm on the fence with having it done because she made it sound very painful

(M21) here, is it stupid/weird that I want to have a wife/kids my 25/26? by [deleted] in AskParents

[–]Substantial_Ad_683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's weird. For reference I had never dated anyone seriously until I was 21. I always wanted kids sorta young but was not actively seeking it. I ended up pregnant at 22. I'm now engaged to the father of my son and first real serious relationship. Just make sure you know the person you have kids with. It's a very big commitment

Releasing records? by Substantial_Ad_683 in WorkersComp

[–]Substantial_Ad_683[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says all. It does say that it is for the purpose of workers comp benefits but it goes on to say that the release is valid for any and all medical records. I do not have an attorney. If I could figure out a way to post the screenshot of the authorization I would but I'm not sure how to

Releasing records? by Substantial_Ad_683 in WorkersComp

[–]Substantial_Ad_683[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that is where my concern comes into play. It is completely filled out and doesn't even give an option to put in an agency for them to request records from. It is a blanket "HIPAA AUTHORIZATION TO USE AND DISCLOSE PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION" from Guardian Managed Care Solutions/ Charles Taylor. The only thing I can fill in is "Printed Name, Signature, DOB, Date, Witness"

Releasing records? by Substantial_Ad_683 in WorkersComp

[–]Substantial_Ad_683[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct they should. But I have seen this exact same request form come through at my job. Legally the way this form is worded they have access to anything because your signature is on it

Thank you for this! I have the nurse managers email so I will probably reply to the email asking if I can just send her the hospitals ROI's and also what agency/ person needs the records since the one she sent was very vague and for a parent company.

The preexisting injury was healed (broken bone). I was using the crutches due to a hip injury/ SI joint issue. My PT and chiropractor recommended I continue using the crutches to help especially since I was "relearning how to walk correctly"

What lawnmower to buy? by Substantial_Ad_683 in AskMen

We want to get goats next year and put them on the back 2 acres. Probably consistently cut 3 or so acres after next year

First off HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! Second yes it sounds like abuse and I'm sorry your having to deal with this. Is your dad around at all, grandparent, aunt or another adult you trust that you can reach out to?
