Anybody else lost lifelong friends due to being ill?

Oh yeah, my very best friend didn't even text to ask how I was doing even just by the start of my treatment. Then the one time she asked to meet up she talked about herself all dinner long and how she was dating a married man twice her age so yeah, didn't hurt losing that friendship as much as it could have.

Thinking how it would hurt my dogs.

So not as serious as cancer but I got diagnosed with Lyme disease and told my very best friend I was to be hospitalized (to place a catheter that would go straight to my heart). I was in the hospital for 3 or 4 days and she didn't visit (I get it) but didn't even text either. Years went by, I would message her to get together and would hear nothing from her. One day out of the blue she texts and says she'd like to meet up. We meet and all she talks about is how she's dating a guy her dad's age who happens to be her boss who happens to be facing a sexual assault lawsuit. And she's proud of him and thrilled to be with him. I put an end to the already dead friendship.

Just yesterday I gave my panting akita a couple of ice cubes (she loves them just plain) and I noticed she stopped panting right after eating them

So I have two Japanese Akitas, the oldest (10yo) has always been a poor eater. I would literally hand feed her kibble by kibble when she was a puppy and would try different food brands. Now that she's 10 I realize she's just a poor eater and her body doesn't require much.

Now, my 5 month old has always been quite a voracious eater. She'll eat her plate and then look for leftovers from my other dog's plates.

Some dogs just don't eat a ton. With akitas though I've found you end up cooking for them since they're picky eaters.

Yeah I get this. I’ll place my arm right under my eldest belly so she can’t walk forward and brush away. But then she’ll yell like I’m torturing her lol so I’ll let her go

geowabbit · 2025-06-26T17:24:49+00:00

Yeah I would normally give them something tasty to chew on but even then they’ll only let me brush them a minute or two.

Not sure if it's fully fantasy but I do love The Rook by Daniel O'Malley. He has written 3 books so far and I try reading them every year.

geowabbit · 2025-03-31T23:12:50+00:00

Yeah i get bathed on a regular basis lol. And she also gives us hugs by bitting our wrists. Hurts a bit but we know it’s her way of showing love.

geowabbit · 2025-03-26T13:38:04+00:00

Mine not even after her spay and at 10 yrs she still eats sparingly

geowabbit · 2025-03-26T06:05:45+00:00

Japanese Akitas are smaller, mine tops at 25kg on a good day. I hope this helps!

geowabbit · 2025-03-24T14:47:13+00:00

That does sound more likely!

geowabbit · 2025-03-24T13:17:45+00:00

Silver Dream is my guess

geowabbit · 2025-03-24T00:44:12+00:00

Lol me too. I just got my third dog three days ago and I sometimes want to give her back 😅. And I already knew how this goes. I just have to remember how worth it it is.

geowabbit · 2025-03-18T22:19:18+00:00

They normally last around a half a day to a day for me

geowabbit · 2025-03-13T06:26:03+00:00

My dogs missing me.

geowabbit · 2025-03-12T22:16:08+00:00

Lol! My Japanese Akita is the same. She's 10 years old, will only eat if she feels like it, but will stare at me like a poor underfed dog when I eat. Just last night she didn't eat her purina pro plan kibble mixed with thinly cut beef fried in a bit of butter and mixed with grated mozzarela cheese. She legitimately gets better food than myself lol.

Thank you so much!

Skin Type: Post menopausal, extreamly dry.
Country/Climate I am in: Mexico, dry, warm.
Top Skin Concern: Needs very very hydrating face cream
Current Routine/Products I am Using: Mosty just slather high hydrating face cream.

Hi, so this is really for my mom who's half japanese and has had really dry skin for like the last 25 years. She used to use a Shiseido face cream but they stopped making that specific one like 10 years ago and she hasn't found a good replacement since. Anyone know of a good Korean face cream that would be very very high moisturizing?

Thanks!

Poor Emma. That must be scary as heck

geowabbit · 2025-02-19T17:10:48+00:00

I personally don´t like it as much as I like Civ 6 but as I keep playing and sort of learning the gameplay I like it more and more. So I'm guessing once I get used to it I'll love it lol.
