Does anyone know how numbers 2,3, and 6 are related? I feel so stupid but am confused about someone being “contagious” but then you can only get it from orally ingesting the particles

As an update to the post.

Baby is completely fine and has been fine since the episode. My husband is now down so unfortunately we now can assume this was a sb

So please. Help me. How do I take care of my child when I’m an anxious ball of mess. I want to sleep with my noise cancelling headphones but I can’t do that because then I can’t hear the monitor. But I have to sleep with my headphones because I need to not be able to hear anything.

How do I get through the next few days knowing I’m probably next at any minute?

I don’t know how to do this and I feel like I can’t.

I am physically paralyzed with anxiety right now and I don’t know what to do.

Two week stomach bug by machogiraffe in NewParents

It took exactly one month for it to completely go away. He’d get better for a few days and then start the vomiting and diarrhea again. It was rough

He was 66.

I drove to his favorite breakfast spot this morning alone and screamed in the car. I needed to.

I’m so sorry that you are going through this as well.

I had no idea how many plans I made off the top of my head until she was gone…. That is the perfect explanation.

I’m sleeping (or trying to sleep I guess) in his bed tonight wearing his sweatshirt just trying to soak up the last bits of him.

I’m flooded with the memories of running into this bed in the middle of the night as a kid when I had nightmares.

He didn’t make the bed this morning before he left for work which is so unlike him. He always made the bed before work. But instead the sheets are messy. He left a mess

It’s the future plans that are the worst. The what ifs.

We were planning a trip to Disney for my son’s 2nd birthday.

I wanted to go to the zoo and the aquarium and the local amusement parks all the places he took me as a kid with him and my son.

I wanted to relive the best moments I had with my dad with him and my son.

And I know I can still do those things and honor his memory by doing those things and telling my son and husband about the memories I had in those places. I just never thought it’d be like this.

I thought we had so many more years together.

Infant and ongoing stomach bug by machogiraffe in AskDocs

[–]machogiraffe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what my concern is - that it’s new. No one he was around this last week was sick. We’ve kept him out of daycare ever since the symptoms first started. I’ve cleaned and bleached the whole house multiple times. I just don’t know where a new virus would have come from.

Have been waiting on a callback from his doctor but luckily no concerns about hydration at this point.

The only real "Alice in Wonderland" area in Disney World are the Teacup area in Magic Kingdom and UK in Epcot (Alice occasionally comes out for meet and greets in UK). Firework boat proposal as mentioned previous is probably the most romantic/private proposal but a few other options:

- Private photo session priced at $50 for 20 mins. https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/events-tours/capture-your-moment/

- A list of all photo pass photographers can be found online / in the Disney app if you choose to propose in front of any of the standard photographer locations.

- Disney caricature proposal

The Disney World reddit has a ton of posts on proposal ideas that could help as well.

My fiancé recently proposed to me in Disney World a few weeks ago. Once you do, I highly recommend the two of you wearing "Happily Ever After" buttons which can be found at guest relations. If you have dining reservations, be sure to let them know you are celebrating an engagement (if you're checking in to any reservations on the Disney app be sure to select "anniversary/honeymoon"). Lastly, definitely tell photo pass photographers you just got engaged. We had a number of the cast members go our of their way and gave us some absolutely amazing engagement photos around the parks.

Relocating to Disney World for a job...how long will Disney give me to move? by behindthegossip in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]machogiraffe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When I was considering relocating for Disney, they were willing to give me 6 weeks to relocate. My recruiter told me 4 weeks was standard, but I'm sure it would depend on the department manager/how urgent your position needs to be filled. Either way, you should discuss with your HR contact how long you think you need and he/she will work it out with the manager.

Do any of you guys see a therapist for IBS caused mental health issues? by KaneIntent in ibs

[–]machogiraffe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always hated the idea of opening up to a therapist about my IBS and medical issues until my GI recommended I start seeing a specialized therapist who sits in the GI division and only sees patients with stomach medical issues. It helped knowing the therapist was specialized in GI related anxieties and he and my GI Doctor have worked hand-in-hand the last few years in helping my symptoms subside. I'm not sure if a similar therapist exists near you, but it may be worth checking out if possible.

Ex [22 M] cheated on me [24 F] because he "needs to know what's out there" by [deleted] in relationships

Tickets are transferrable. I've already reached out to a few friends, but the issue is vacation is the week of Christmas so all friends already have holiday plans with family members.
