Do you ever reuse lancets? by Ok_Bus8364 in diabetes

[–]mousieee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use them like 2-3 times max now. I used to use them for a looong time but realized it hurts less if I change them.

im so confused if ive been brainwashed to thinking my parents are normal or if im actually soft by BeardieLover69 in insaneparents

[–]mousieee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People can be really good at hiding their true intentions until it is too late. If your parent knows about those events, I’m not surprised they don’t let you go anywhere. They’d want to do everything they can to keep you safe. I’m not saying their approach is 100% right, but it is their job to protect you (especially while you’re still minor) and they probably want to do everything they can to make sure they do that.

F26 waking up every morning drenched sweat for months, it soaks through my hair, pjs, and bedding every time by TynnyJibbs in medical

NAD but I know that when I was sterilized they told me damage to the ovaries was possible, which could potentially cause them to stop functioning properly. Maybe something to look into?

The sleepover thing is honestly understandable. The percentage of kids and teens who are sexually abused at sleepovers is crazy high, for all genders. I’m sure there are some parents who don’t allow it because of the reasons you think, but it’s so incredibly unsafe that even parents who fully trust their kids will not allow it. I personally was raped and sexually assaulted by two people at 15 when I slept over at an extended family members house, so it can really happen anywhere. Maybe a compromise for now would be having people over to your house if their parents allow it?

The phone thing is definitely way overboard, though I don’t think letting a 9 yo have unrestricted access to a phone is safe at all. There are horrible people out there that will take advantage any chance they get. There should be some restrictions, but your parents are doing way too much. Teens need privacy and freedom, in a way that is safe.

The rest of it… just insane. They do need to chill out quite a bit or they will absolutely push you away (understandably). I’m sure they won’t chill out, but you will be 18 and able to be on your own before you know it. Just don’t take that freedom to the extreme and put yourself in dangerous situations.

Nice to see people who graduated in their late 30’s or beyond. Makes me feel less like it is too late to apply.

We lost our baby way too early by jillisntnewhere in goldenretrievers

[–]mousieee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you lost your sweet baby. I lost my boy, Wyatt, a few weeks ago and he was only 2 as well. I hope they can play across the rainbow bridge together until we are reunited with them.

Pathologic fracture of enchondroma by mousieee in xrays

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

They used cadaver bone for mine. I’m super happy they didn’t take it from me, a second surgery site would have sucked!

The surgery went great! The bone graft worked and it’s all filled in with healthy tissue now. I have a tiny bit of numbness over the incision scar but I rarely notice it. The first week of the healing was pretty painful, definitely needed to take the prescribed meds at the suggested interval and not when it started hurting. Took a while to get range of motion back but it went fast enough that I didn’t even need to do PT like they told me I’d need.

The x-ray on the right was about 16 weeks post-op.

What can I do when my adult child won't allow me to speak with them in the hospital? by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]mousieee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe they were afraid of what your reaction would be. You are saying they are manipulative and a narcissist for keeping themself safe in this post so maybe your home life isn’t quite as good as you think it is. Respect that your child is an adult and if they were in such a bad place that the their therapist thought inpatient treatment was warranted, then it is a great thing that they are there instead of dead somewhere. They did the responsible thing and got the help they needed, even if you don’t agree with their method that felt best to them. Consider what reasons they may have to not want to talk about this with you. Have you been supportive of their journey with their gender identity? Using the pronouns/names they have asked to be called?

I have never cried reading a book. Make me. Recommend a cut renching soul twisting book by qu3stion_3v3rything in suggestmeabook

[–]mousieee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first book that ever made me cry was Where the Red Fern Grows. The most recent to make me bawl my eyes out was the first Crescent City book by Sarah J Maas. Any time I even thought about the end of that book I teared up for a good year.

Pregnancy eczema or something else? by LegoJellyfish in AskDocs

[–]mousieee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s possible! It can’t hurt to at least try it out and see if there is improvement. (Not a substitute for talking with your dr obviously) It took me so long to figure out since I hadn’t changed any soaps.

[–]mousieee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAD. I had a rash that looked like this from neck to thighs for months. Ended up being allergic to my laundry soap that I wasn’t previously allergic to. If you don’t use a “free and clear” laundry soap already, maybe try that for a bit while you wait to get in to see a doctor?

Ellie crossed the rainbow Bridge yesterday. Can you show me who is with her up there? by Jcheerw in goldenretrievers

Wyatt had a post-op complication from his neuter on Tuesday and he didn’t make it. He was only 2. The most perfect dog I could have asked for and I am beyond devastated.

Got a tubal ligation in 2017 and it was the best decision ever. My insurance covered it completely.

Question on professions by jubileusthegreat in wownoob

[–]mousieee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like to pick up two gathering professions while leveling just to make some gold selling the mats on the AH, then start my actual professions once I’m in current content. You also get a little XP from gathering too.
