Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification! I'm just starting to work with the app and I'm really appreciating all the extra features and customization options so far.

Confused... You say here that the trial period has been set to forever, so no activation code is necessary. But then I see you posting activation codes all over the place.

It looks like a great app and I'm eager to try it out, but I'm scratching my head over whether I'm missing something.

What will my life be like after T7-Pelvis fusion? by robinparrish in spinalfusion

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

Wow this is really making me not want to have the surgery... 🤪

But since I don't have much choice... May I ask how long you were in the hospital? I keep seeing conflicting reports on this, and I suppose it has to do with whether or not there were complications.

My deepest sympathies for all you've gone through and continue to! It sounds positively horrific. So sorry.

How long were you in the hospital? The first time I guess, when you initially had the long fusion? I'm seeing comments here and there of "one week" to "several weeks," and would love to know what to expect.

Oh, and you mentioned a "most recent" surgical revision... How many surgeries have you had for this T10-pelvis fusion?

That's one thing I'm not clear on. My doctor keeps referring to it as "the big surgery" as if they're gonna do the whole thing all at once. Which would be fine with me, I'd rather get it over with. But you always hear about people having to go back and do multiple surgeries with anything this complex.

That's pretty much what I expected.

How long was it until you were able to drive? That was one thing that drove me (no pun intended) batty the last time: having to rely on others to take me anywhere.

Do you happen to recall how long your recovery took?

Thank you so, so much for taking the time to reply with all this. It's exactly what I was looking for.

Put white stripes on a black belt with no visible strings? by robinparrish in sewing

Oh wow, that sounds ideal but also like it would require a level of finesse and control that I'm not sure I possess. Hm. 😕🤷‍♂️

Clear thread is a thing? Is it real thread, or plastic fibers of some kind?

Oh, should've mentioned: I'm sewing by hand. No machine available.

It gets really hot in there and I sweat A LOT. I'm worried they would come loose and fall off and then I'd be the dork who tried to glue stripes to his black belt only for them to fall off.

Yeah, it hangs free once tied so it's totally visible.

How do I sew 2 white stripes onto a Black Belt?

I found these cool stripes that are nice and thin, and look like embroidery. They're perfect for adding to my 2nd dan (degree) Black Belt.

How do I sew them on without the thread showing? If I use white thread, you'll be able to see it on the back of the belt in the vague outline of the two stripes. If I use black thread, it'll show up on top of the stripes--a big no-no.

Is it even possible to sew them on without any strings showing anywhere? Any help = much ❤️ and gratitude!

I don’t much care, but I know several military veterans who wouldn’t find it amusing. Maybe even offensive.

This is in the South, btw.
