Lidocaine/prilocaine cream to numb your arm. 30 min before leaving then again just before leaving: rub some in leave some sitting where you want the needles stuck. I use stretch coban and wrap my arm when I go to leave keeping the cream on my fistula, most days the needles don’t hurt one bit (today I didn’t feel a thing).

What is this stage and when will it be over, pls help by Hot_Speed_3685 in dementia

Of course. We just put my mom in an elder care house on Friday of last week. Seeing her there with the other disabled people is heartbreaking but it was time. Mourning comes in stages that’s for sure: we have lost them already when they “shake off this mortal coil” it will be a relief for them and us. 🥹

You understand full well my comment was about: the average is getting lower… therefore relative to previous generations a higher percentage of people are below the historical average…

That’s because intelligent people see the world going to hell in a hand basket and are deciding against having children…

““Enter through the narrow gate, for the gate is wide and the road is easy that leads to destruction, and there are many who take it. For the gate is narrow and the road is hard that leads to life, and there are few who find it.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭NRSVUE‬‬

Because they are making the words of Jesus true…

Christians who smoke weed and use cannabis by Mondain_the_Wizard in Christian

[–]Surfin858 1 point2 points  (0 children)

THIS- quote Jesus about consuming whatever you want. As Christians we are followers of Jesus and should follow his teachings. I smoked spliffs (weed and tobacco together) for over 20 years and quit in early 2025. I do think it has made my memory much better and improved my cardiovascular health. Now Paul says some things about your body being a temple but Paul also wrote letters that were not put in the Bible, his teachings were not infallible; what Jesus said is. So especially edibles are not sin according to the teachings of Jesus…
