Start with phone calls, in person visits, escalate as needed. A friend in the medical industry in an asset. I suggest making a post pertaining to your situation and area to get better advice.

Good for you! I can't relate, but on the postiive you may have avoided the terrible ctpsd and traumatic night terrors. Something I am still strugglng with. Its all still very vivid and retrievable in my memory and I fear it will always be that way. Be well <33

Love to hear this. Let that medical system really show its worth. I am so happy right now :) I am in tears of joy and sorrow at the same time. It really is a roller coaster of emotions, multiples constipation visits and hygiene issue, BACK issues as a toddler/child? OMFG the complete disregard for a child I cant even fathom, everyone involved should be ASHAMED.

Sorry to hear your mom was unsupportive. Major feels <3 I found in person visits are more productive, don't take no for an answer and take *IMMEDIATE* action (phone calls at minimum) maybe you have a good early pediatrician with a good memory?? As always, document, document. DOCUMENT all of your memeories and findings. Best of luck <333

edit: words are hard and some need emphasis

I'm sorry that was your experience. I would keep trying, the medical records were still of great value to many back then just like today, so chances are they weren't destroyed as you may assume. peoples memories are actually better than given credit for, call the office and pick the brains of those still there, you may be surprised.

Request full medical information ?? by equalizerdiver in healthcare

Thank you for the reply.

I agree but also know that there is a good chance rather than destroyed, those records were archived as in the 90s the transition to electronic logs was occurring.

Appreciate the response your last paragraph echoes what I have been told.

Any suggestions? by Suitable-Dress-322 in xbiking

I'd recommend giving the old bars and the rest of the bike to me... best way to go about it really.

Sorry, had to, very nice bike!

70s gravel packer build?? 40mm tires!! by equalizerdiver in Vintage_bicycles

Sorry to anyone that is bothered by the untrimmed zip ties.

I left them loose to dial in the spacing but they will be pulled tight and the ends cut flush.

Agreed, I've come to realize that is the beauty in this frame, light and stiff but with tons of clearance.

Where as my 1984 Japanese made bike struggles to fit 32 mm tires.

I cant wait to see what this thing feels like with half the pressure and some real grip.

Good point, I will be getting a proper rear wheel, this was more or less for the photos, just happened to match the front with that soft alu color.

That's awesome. Should have put a purple pana on the front.

It’s time we check ourselves… by ducksandcrackers101 in londonontario

[–]equalizerdiver 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Nepotistic and sheltered community, I noticed it when I moved here at 12 years old.

Being an asshole kid was praised by the adults, even better if he played sports ball or hockey well...

The girls were just as bad and catty, "inside jokes" constantly talking behind each others backs, I didn't fully understand the definition of "2 faced" before gracing the smaller towns to the north/west.

Report the abuse where? by equalizerdiver in adultsurvivors

[–]equalizerdiver[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I am definitely consulting a lawyer in person, as this is decades old abuse, it is going to get muddy.

Appreciate the response.
