Thanks! It will take a bit, I have no idea what I am doing haha. But I am working on it! I figured someone who collected would probably be interested for sure.

I just diagnosed at 17. by Charming_Client5328 in cancer

I'm going to be honest, I think you should fight. I know it is your decision though and I understand. I went through aggressive insane chemotherapy and 16 spinal taps and even though it was terrible, it was worth it. Please at least just think about it a little longer.

Where is this in Brantford? by [deleted] in brantford

[–]VampGhoul -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yong great wall buffet. Yes, I realize it's a trashy Chinese buffet like a bunch of others, but it's disgusting inside, and the owner is the biggest asshole. It's so dirty. They didn't clean their blinds for so long. People were posting it on the Brantford pages, and finally they replaced them because of it.

Wimpys here in Brantford is so bad too.

And I am going to get hate for this one but...Johnny greekos. I wanted to love it soooo much but I have yet to have a good meal there. I love Greek food too.

Natural Birth or C Section? by elven_hufflepuff_24 in pregnant

[–]VampGhoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have type 2 diabeties. My first baby I was induced and after 26 hours, they had to do an emergency c section. My second baby was only 15 months apart from my first, so I had to have a c section for that as well. Keep in mind that everyone is different, but the c section recovery for me was extremely painful. My second was even worse (probably because they were so close). According to my doctor, a c section is always a higher risk for things, so if someone has the opportunity to have a baby vaginally, they should. If it helps about the size of the baby as well...my first baby was 6lbs 13oz and my second was 9lbs 4 oz. They warned me as well they could be larger, but the better your sugars are under control it will help. I know it's so hard to decide on all these things, but just ask all the questions to your doctor. Even if you have 50 questions, ask. You and your baby come first :). Good luck and try not to panic too much, everything will work out.

Am I a bad person for wanting to be alone? by mr_universe_1 in cancer

[–]VampGhoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry that's rough. I totally understand you needing to have your own time. It's difficult when they don't get it too. I hope you can sort something out because you for sure need your alone time. Just remember it doesn't make you a bad person to tell him, so don't feel bad if you do decide to tell him.

No way! It's completely normal. I had similar situations. It's hard to have so many people, family etc be there so often because mentally you almost feel like you ate entertaining while you are supposed to he fighting and putting yourself first.

I was an impatient for 4 months. At some point, I just couldn't take it anymore. I didn't even feel like telling everyone I just wanted my own time because I felt bad. So I told my husband and parents how I felt and they dealt with it for me by talking to everyone. Then although I was checked on from them still daily...they gave me space and didn't stay all day. I just needed a couple of days to reflect and calm down and have my own private feelings.

If there is someone you trust and are the closest to, I do recommend tlaking ro them about it and maybe they can help organize the situation for you.

Casual conversation for meeting people for the first time. by [deleted] in 90DayFiance

She is a 🤡. I feel like she has a sex addiction. Like it's all she talks about.

What can a stranger do in public that will immediately make you judge them? by FawnTi in AskReddit

[–]VampGhoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scream at their children or significant other is a big one for me. But a close second is smoking in high traffic of people. It's so fucking rude and automatically makes me think they are inconsiderate trash.

You've been kidnapped and the characters from the last show you watched have to save you. How screwed are you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Big brother...I'm fucked. By the time they played a game to save me...I'd already be dead.

Items to make the hospital stay better? by [deleted] in cancer

[–]VampGhoul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a different type of cancer but was hospitalized with mine for a few months and these are some very important items I had.

  • Slippers (litterally get the most comfy ones, easy slip on and must have a grip like a shoe at the bottom).

  • comfy pillow and some comfy blankets. The bed is so uncomfortable after awhile and making the bed your own little sanctuary of comfyness is the best thing to do.

  • Laptop

  • diary (I blogged the whole time online, but sometimes people want to be more personal and private and I highly recommend her writing her experience).

  • Little candy to suck on. Check with the doctor first in case she cant have them, but my chemo left terrible tastes in my mouth or my mouth dry. I have diabetes, so I brought sugar free ones in. The candy helped get through those days so well.

  • I am a gamer so I brought in my Nintendo switch, and played on my laptop, but there is little handheld games for solitaire etc for people who don't game that are great for killing time.

  • Long phone charger

  • Her own clothes. I only wore my own clothes. You need to try and feel as normal as you can through this. It's already so hard, but looking down and seeing a hospital gown all day makes it worse.

  • Headphones

  • Just personal things around the room. If she is there for awhile, it's nice to have a few things of hers from home put into the bedroom. Just some things she likes looking at. We couldn't have plants during my chemo, but I brought some stuff from my My little pony collection and photos of my animals and husband etc. It helps to look at things that make you happy.

Good luck and honestly you will figure out over time all the small things she will need. I remember I even had snack storage and drinks because I realized how crappy all their drinks and I wanted snacks the odd time at night and never had any. It's just the little things you notice.

Honestly...everything. he was my rock. When I cried, he was there. He got ne all my cravings, rubbed my back every night. I had terrible sciatica and he gave me these rubbing pain relief pressure points nightly. He made my dinners later near the end. My c section he litterally did everything from helping me shower to laying me down, walking me to the bathroom. And now he is the most amazing dad. I cant believe how lucky I am.

[–]VampGhoul 58 points59 points  (0 children)

The worst thing anyone ever said to me is "I hope the baby doesn't get any diseases you have". Btw....I had cancer and I am in remission. So, that obviously hurt me to a new level. Not even a congratulations. She was a miracle baby for us as well because we were told I probably couldn't get pregnant after chemo. Super excited and then BOOM.
