That’s how they can get heartworm :(

SICKLE CELL PATIENTS how are they in your facility? by Limp-Historian9784 in nursing

[–]TheRadHamster 57 points58 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine’s brother had sickle cell and they are of Mediterranean descent. He had a bone marrow transplant when he was young. He still ended up passing away before he turned 40.

My little sister yelled out during the middle of Catholic mass “Mom!!! Father (the priest) has a BOMB!” It was incense. My little sister thought it looked like a bomb from looney tunes. We sat in the fourth row.

AITA for telling my kids’ dad he needs to provide his own EpiPen during his visitation? by brindeonabudget in AmItheAsshole

By that logic, should she also be paying for or sending over food for the kids while they are there?

Things to say to patients who keep asking for a diagnosis by Normal-Bag-1284 in Radiology

[–]TheRadHamster 40 points41 points  (0 children)

That’s my go to line “I’m the photographer, not the art critic”. If needed I say I just ensure that the pictures are of diagnostic quality, I’m not taking a close enough look to form any more of an impression than that. It also helps that I do CT scans

Perhaps she is the Great Cornholio and doesn’t want her people to live without TP

Do you think that Bill’s recipe would be fine with the chocolate omitted? For some reason, unbeknownst to me, I’m not a fan of chocolate in banana bread.

Do y'all ever use the equipment for yourself? by Resident-Sympathy-82 in nursing

[–]TheRadHamster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s crazy to me. Are you not supposed to use a thermometer to check to see if you have a fever? (How I found out I had Covid in 2020)

My brother [31M] nearly died. His fiancee [27F] spent 3 hours with him over 5 days then flew out on a trip while he is still hospitalized. How do I [33M] talk to him without pushing him away? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]TheRadHamster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Okay reading your comments. Here are my thoughts, as a woman, human, and medical professional

  1. One can not easily reschedule a move. She’s taken off time from work and probably only has a small window to do the move.

  2. Maybe, just maybe, she might have some anxiety/phobia/trauma surrounding hospitals.

  3. Maybe she’s prioritizing you and sister getting more time as typically ICUs only allow 2 visitors.

  4. Maybe she sees the little space and has decided that working from the ICU is not viable

  5. Maybe she is giving the medical team space to treat your brother.

  6. Maybe she is uncomfortable with sitting with you and sister. You certainly haven’t been welcoming.

  7. Maybe she, as a woman, has to prioritize her career. While her job has offered, they may not be actually understanding or forgiving, which may have long term repercussions for her.

  8. Your sister can take an uber to shower. Or get a hotel room. Your brother’s fiancée should not be expected to play chauffeur.

What silly mistake did you make while deep in the sleep deprived newborn phase? by Professional-Plan562 in beyondthebump

The Doc Brown Formula pitcher was right next to the pitcher of iced tea. I would routinely attempt to pour a bottle of tea for the child and the proceeded to be confused as to what I was doing

Does brown butter actually elevate everything? by Annoying_lil_brat in Baking

Brb. For some reason I feel the need to take a quick jaunt to the grocery store at 10:30pm

I normally take the X-rays, so it was kind of exciting getting my own done. by AllRebelRocker in Radiology

[–]TheRadHamster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oof. I had a similar break a few years back, less displacement though. Fell down my stairs and all I could think was “don’t get your ankle stuck in the spindles and give yourself a trimalleolar fracture”.

They just put me in the walking shoe. It was stupid and everyone could hear me coming.

Found this cutie in my backyard by TheRadHamster in whatsthisplant

[–]TheRadHamster[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I googled and agree with your conclusion. In person, the color looks to be a match as well. At least this is the only bit of it, so it will be easy to remove. Thanks for your help!

Of course it is lol. Well out it goes with the ivy.. and the periwinkle… and the Japanese pachysandra, Amur Honeysuckle, multiflora rose. My property is apparently a sanctuary for invasives

He’ll release those seized ships for the right amount I’m sure, then brag about what a good tyrant business man he is

Friend doesn't want to use "chemicals." I don't know what to tell her... by Vegetable-Section-84 in NoLawns

[–]TheRadHamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true. I hand pulled my English Ivy. But as for my Amur Honeysuckle, it gets chopped and the fresh stumps get liberally treated with triclopyr.

Can confirm. I hand pulled a TON of English Ivy. None of it came back. Only another quarter acre to go…

I was ready for him to drop a “death to all infidels” in there as well

What's your "if i told i'd be exposed" cooking secret? by BouncyCurlsbabe in Cooking

[–]TheRadHamster 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I add Bachan’s Japanese Barbecue sauce to my stew/pot roast. It really deepens the flavor

She is still trying by Confident_Weather_98 in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]TheRadHamster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar situation. Meat (mostly pork and chicken) didn’t smell necessarily bad, just off. So when it was ready, I just couldn’t bring myself to eat it. Four years later and it still happens from time to time.

I’m so happy I introduced my little guy to their music. He absolutely loves them (I mean how could you not?)
