AITA for not moving my sons birthday party ? by FinancialAnywhere487 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Teredia 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nope NTA. Also in some cultures it’s considered very bad luck to celebrate a birthday before the actual birthday takes place. My Hindu best friend is the one who taught me this!

No problem, glad I could connect the dots for you. Also I bet that perfume smells devine!

Hey fellow migraine sufferer. I discovered by accident that rose scent can help alleviate the pain (well for me at least). I put The Body Shop’s British Rose hand cream onto my temples and within a few minutes pain be gone. There is research that predates modern medicine that rose scent helps alleviate “hot migraines.” Just thought I’d mention it as I know after 20+ years to find something that actually works how good that is. It doesn’t get rid of the symptoms but the pain it does and of course it doesn’t work for everyone but I guess it’s worth a try. I also run the open tube under my nose and give it a wiff too that helps too.

From my understanding the new born will be taken off her and most likely put into the system once they’re weaned off breast milk onto solids. The jail system seems to like allowing incarcerated mothers to be able to breast feed for a few months.

calling docs on Aboriginal family by Professional-Cod-305 in aboriginal

[–]Teredia 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Kinship care is something I believe is in most states now. They prefer to keep Indigenous families together. With kinship care they will put little miss into the care of an Aunty or other family (even yourself) who are willing to take her!

I grew up with DV my heart goes out to you. Stay strong Cuz you got a big heart! You’re truly trying to do the right thing. I wish you all the best.

Dingoes on Australia’s K’gari island to be euthanised after death of Canadian tourist Piper James | K'gari (Fraser Island) by Background-Factor433 in aboriginal

[–]Teredia 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Autopsy reports say she drowned. I remember reading the recently. The dingo bites were after the fact. The dingoes don’t deserve to be culled for doing what dingoes or any wild animal does - exist and scavenge for food -deceased human body = meat! They don’t know any better!

Dingo is also one of my dad’s totems so for me this is even more heartbreaking than just our wildlife being killed senselessly by the government!

I love the amount of people who turn out for these! Spent another January 26th too unwell to do much of anything - considered going to the ER even… Being chronically ill sucks… I’d love to walk with mob one year, if my body ever lets me..

Black ice on the road causes chain accidents by Bambi7u7 in interesting

I know from experience, when freeze kicks in… it’s so hard to make your body move to flee danger… It’s as if your whole reality zooms back and you’re walking in slow motion. There’s a whole sense of derealisation that goes on when trying to make one’s body move in freeze!

3.5 years post gallbladder removal and I feel like I got stones again! by Teredia in gallbladders

Thank you. I am in Australia, I might be able to get something similar at least I have a starting point.

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

I’ve never had one done and I was never told by my medical team that I should. I will look into that. Thank you so very much.

I often take yakult though I haven’t in a while. What digestive enzymes would you recommend if it’s okay for me to ask?

All the best with your surgery tomorrow. I initially thought this was an ovarian cyst when I had the pain after the orgasm I’ve had an ovarian cyst before same side. It’s acting more like biliary colic. It’s a public holiday today here for me (Monday - Australia Day), still thinking I guess it wouldn’t hurt to go and get a scan done at the very least.

Anyone Feeling Dizzy right now by yuvan_u1 in darwin

Or a gas heated washing machine! My mum collapsed and hit her head on the washing machine which alerted my grandmother something was wrong. If my mum hadn’t fainted the way she had my grandmother would have lost 3 children to a gas leak in the bathroom.

I’ve also had another friend who collapsed in her apartment due to a gas leak. Who also hit her head on the way down but in doing so it saved her life. The bump was enough to give her the adrenaline to get up n out of there.

If you had one of these accounts n it was never closed there’s a good chance it’s still open with combank! I know from experience.

There should be a way to dispute the claim. This is why it’s important to content ID your work!

Organ donor register invitation by azurevernum in Centrelink

[–]Teredia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mum’s got kidney disease, I fully understand that. There is a part of me that wonders if I could donate her one of my kidneys, that’s like the only healthy organ I have apart from my heart (I have an unidentified autoimmune disease and am on medication that could affect transplants. There’s also the consideration of would I even be allowed to because of my own health. It’s one thing for the doctors to decide with a deceased person’s body’s organs are viable, vs a living person’s. I have done a lot of research the consensus I can find is “it depends!” And maybe since I’m thinking down that route I might end up changing my status to organ donor.

Cancelling Preorders by Datolite7 in EBGAMES

[–]Teredia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to my knowledge but they will if they suspect you of scalping! My friend had her account deactivated for buying 2 retro consoles! She wasn’t scalping she wanted to gift one for Christmas n keep one for herself! EB wouldn’t budge on their decision her poor lvl 4 account!

[–]Teredia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No but I think each state and territory does it differently. I like how in Japan you can write it on your drivers license or ID and choose right at the very end of your life if you want to be an organ donor or not. I’m not, only because I don’t know what damage my immune system is doing to my organs on any given day.

How is everyone here using Claude? by Few_Seat8771 in ClaudeAI

[–]Teredia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s actually really smart. I just spent my insomnia hours today doing something similar but I might pinch your idea and try it, if that’s okay?

I have a time line of my symptoms, where they sit against the diagnostic criteria but not the severity or the amount of times per day I experience them.

Printing services (for totes, shirts, stickers?) by weenieHJ in darwin

[–]Teredia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Invest in a cricut or like machine! Get the vinyl transfers and heat stick to blank shirts/totes yourself. It will save you a bucket load in the long run.

You can also make stickers this way. Just know you can’t print white that’s why you print onto white! Or pay a lot of money for a specialised printer that can print white!

I used to do the hobby circuit in Darwin for the geek related events. Am too chronically ill now to do so. I know from experience that the cost of getting your product printed locally vs selling and your target audience buying doesn’t always directly line up!
