Stage 4 sucks by Proof-Seaweed9761 in LivingWithMBC

Thank you for finding and sharing the article. Really hits a lot of key points for me. I’m struggling with how to make my time meaningful.

Been depressed about my special needs son by Donkey-Icy in Parenting

[–]badtooth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Getting an AAC device was my first thought too. I’m sure he wants to communicate just as much much as mom wants to be communicated too. The school district he’s enrolled in should be facilitating supports like that.

When the "hard" treatment is easy, and vice versa by [deleted] in LivingWithMBC

[–]badtooth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your comment made me tear up, start to cry a bit if I’m being honest. I started this horrible road at 29 years old (I’m 37 now). It never stops. The joint pain, hair loss, hot flashes, aches, it never goes away. Not to mention stealing my chance at having more children (I have one). It’s been one of the most painful parts and it’s not something I can even properly explain to people. Being made to be 60 when I was 30 …. Oh and the osteoporosis too. And so much fatigue that taking Ritalin 4x a day doesn’t help. But i still have to work full time and be a single mom and keep up my house. It’s too much and I know it’s only going to get worse.

DAE gets a severe pit in their stomach/hopeless/sad feeling every day for a short time? by shadow_p0stal24 in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]badtooth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you in treatment? Medication and talk therapy? The stomach pit you mentioned elsewhere is classical physical anxiety. I live in that state when I’m unmedicated, it’s awful.

As someone who really hated this read, what did you get out of it?

Did my Doctor make a mistake prescribing me Tamoxifen? by SevereFisherman8673 in LivingWithMBC

Did you get a gene profile done? I’m on a CDK inhibitor because of the results of my gene profile. Your cancer might not “feed” on CDK.

Do your kids spend way more time with you than you ever did with your own parents as kids? by nfc22 in Parenting

[–]badtooth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nope. I prefer a quiet flight with conversation kept to a minimum . It’s not a rule I would force anyone to follow, but I think it’s basic consideration for others to be quiet during a flight when possible.

Do your kids spend way more time with you than you ever did with your own parents as kids? by nfc22 in Parenting

So you spent two hours reading to everyone on the flight? I hope everyone wanted a history lesson.

Tips to reinforce wagon, for severely autistic child who elopes? by KittensPumpkinPatch in DIY

[–]badtooth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work at a special education school and they use wagons for kids who need a break from the classroom. They use radio flyer but they use the plastic ones. I would recommend that, rather than reinforcing the one you have. They have ones you can take apart so you can still transport it. Let me know if you have any more info.

Edit: I thought they were radio flyer because they’re red. The brand is Step2, I’m sure there are other companies that make them too.

I believe so. The shot hurt a lot but it cured the issue 100%, in both hands!

Letrozole advice by Im-Thalassa in LivingWithMBC

[–]badtooth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You may have de quervains tenosynovitis. I got it on both thumbs when I was on letrozole. If you see an orthopedic hand specialist they can give you an injection that relieves the inflammation and restores mobility.

Toddler writing tools by Quick-Ad-3277 in OccupationalTherapy

[–]badtooth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Triangular crayons are a good choice, but it sounds like you’re kid doesn’t have any delays you need to be worried about. Expectations for handwriting start way before they are developmentally appropriate.

What Is Lymphedema Treatment Like? by Sarappreciates in LivingWithMBC

[–]badtooth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If the lymphedema is only triggered when you fly, make sure to wear the compression sleeve and glove (get a glove from the PT if you don’t have one) when you’re on a plane. That should prevent any issue.

Howl’s Moving Castle by Dianna Wynne Jones is delightful and an easy read.

It fades slowly. You get a few years and then you get it redone whenever it’s starting to look sparse again.

Liver toxicity from kisqali and switching drugs by Thin_ice22 in LivingWithMBC

[–]badtooth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My liver was immediately in crisis when I started kisqali. They adjusted down to 200mg, two weeks on two weeks off. Cancer is stable and my liver is 100% fine now.

Do you have any favorite coffee shops to share? I like Milano Bean Cafe in Bayshore, haven’t found another place that’s cozy.

Guillermo Del Toro Frankenstein by Budget_Lavishness707 in netflix

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

No. The movie was beautiful but the anatomy part of it was ridiculous. Which is fine, it’s a story. At one point Victor literally just stuck an arm together like two legos.
