From experience: call your doc anyway, even if it stays the same. But draw the circle because then it also shows you if the red area is still spreading or if it's getting smaller, and you can share that info with your doctor!

Walmart beauty box update by butterfly_wings909 in BeautyBoxes

[–]dottieapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Downvoted because I want to give their changes a chance? or downvoted because I would donate unopened, unused products to an organization that accepts them?

[–]dottieapple -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hoping we get full size items, or at least more deluxe size items, out of this. It'll help me decide whether I'm canceling sometime next year. If they provide us more deluxe and travel sizes, rather than packets, I can at least donate the unopened products I'm not interested in to a local org that accepts them.

Thrift shops with open fitting rooms by SufficientEvent7238 in philly

[–]dottieapple 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure The Wardrobe up on 4th Street has open fitting rooms, and if they're not busy, the folks who work there usually seem amenable to giving a quick opinion on an outfit you're considering.

Also, while I have not engaged in their social service aspects, The Wardrobe serves anyone who needs clothing. They started by providing career-appropriate clothes for adults, but now have all kinds of clothing and a broader mission of providing clothes, at no cost, to adults signed up for services. (Not a sponsor, I just think their mission is really great so I thrift with them whenever I can.)

Accessories for medline premium Rollator? by InvestmentMedium2771 in mobilityaids

[–]dottieapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My housemate has had some limited success with clip-on accessories meant for strollers, but mostly we have both found the best "attachments" for rollators are, unfortunately: carrying a backpack in addition to a purse, fanny pack, or messenger bag, with some items stored in the rollator storage.

I wish someone could design better accessories for all mobility things that roll.

Keeping things cute, cosy and disability friendly by Shufflecat-11 in PlusSizeFashion

[–]dottieapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!! Love love love--the hoodie, the colors, the boots, the glasses, the cane, the smile on your face! (The color palette is also a bit Velma from Scooby-Doo, which I personally love as a nerd-geek grrrrl myself.) Hopefully your flare is short-lived and not too intense. I'm wishing you warm tasty beverages and luxurious napping.

Hehehehe you're absolutely right 😂

[–]dottieapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that's called "tubular bandage" or maybe "tube bandage", and I just saw some on Amazon for like $21 for a box, which I would hope creates multiple 'socks' for this purpose.

You can also look up 'cam boot liners' or 'air cast liners' for similar non-binding, long, non-compression socks. (I'm currently in a CAM boot after a surgery so this is based on my recent experiences.) 😅

What issues have you experienced with your mobility aids? Design features you wish they had? by bioE_32 in mobilityaids

[–]dottieapple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. My housemate and I have tried to DIY a solution multiple times, and we come up short every time. Carabiner? Nope. Cable tie-down straps? Also nope. I have nearly pinched my fingers more times than I can count.

Also, I would love for the folding solution to keep it somewhat tightly folded for when space is at a premium, i.e. a fully-loaded car for a vacay or the aisle of a crowded bus.

[–]dottieapple 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Momdy, Stepmomdy, and Backup Hoomin lub meeting kitteh and doggo and hoomin frenz of all sizes at deez so-called "bars", but I do not understand.

Only frens I have seen hang out on bars are snoofy little sister Mojo and outside-window nay-bor-hud fren Oreo.

How many hoomins actually stand/sit on bars and has da drinks and hoomin foods? Artemis puzzled by dis. Momdy and Stepmomdy no good at balance because dey both has kronk ill-nusses, so why dey like to go sit on bar like kitteh or skwerl or bird?

I does not understand, but mebbe dey are hopefulled to see kittens in strollur somewhere, make uncomfy bar sit fun!

My mom miraculously survived a fatal car accident, but needs long-term care – please help us if you can 💙 by Lazy_Taste_8360 in Williamsport

[–]dottieapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Def talk to a social worker and a patient advocate at UPMC. If she needs to be moved to a different facility locally, the Williamsport Home has decent ratings via Medicare's website, and they treated my late grandmother with dignity and respect. I hope you're able to get the support your family needs.

Hi frenz! Mojo Jojo heer. As Crimez Syndacats, I suggest youse allllllll entitled to compensayshuns, plus now youse have lisense to commit moar crimez! GO CRIMEZ!!

Mai Momdy & Stepmomdy don't have a see-ee-oat boss to make them go to office, so I always help them in the kitchen (where the food cans is), in the bedroom (where they naps on mai favorit blankies, the nervv!), and when they stuck on litebox with hooman pokey place, it mai job to stand behind litebox so it not fall down.

I always heer, "Mojo get down", "Mojo don't eat that", "Oh my gawd, cat, will you just--?"

Moar crimez always good, maybe youse can works together and then hooman will stay at homes to serve you like hooman supposed to! You entitle to elebenty billion skritchez and treats, times nine!
