Wow that’s amazing!!! while I was reading the pet loss grief forums (not fried, sorry in my previous post it spell check changed to that and I didnt notice until after) I kept coming across the Rainbow Bridge & looked it up.. I was like wow... what if?! At the very least it’s a lovely & most comforting poem..

Thank you so much.

That’s really kind of you. We are moving in that direction. At least we don’t have to see his sister anymore, so that helps.

Not a bad idea. I opted for monster movies and beer, and comisserating with the husband.

What’s it about?

i did see a doctor yesterday bc i was off of my meds since august, and this scariness was overwhelming so i knew i had to get back on. i pick up my Rx tomorrow morning, and it’s a 10 mg dose just to reintroduce it to my system. it’ll be a month before we go up to a therapeutic dose. i don’t pray, but i’ve never wished…

Well I’m currently on levothyroxine between now and when the cancer hospital tells me I need to stop it in preparation for radioisotope treatment, but the levels aren’t right for me yet - I’ve now been on a three week, moderately heavy period, have limb & joint pain and having trouble sleeping. Little blip, and to be…

I think if you lived here, I would have no problem calling you up and inviting you for coffee, and that’s really saying something, for me. But you guys will still invade and save us from fascism, right? Ha haha. No, but seriously, you guys will come down here and save us, ok?

This. THIS. Why not blame some rando, indeed.

Swiss Army Man is an awesome movie if yinz haven’t seen it yet.

I am all about the Alastair Sim version. The one from the 30s was also pretty good.

I’m all about The Muppets myself.

Small incisions, minimal recovery time and great pain meds. Lol. The first day after surgery was rough because they make you move, as in get up and walk around. It was horrible. But, I got an extra day’s stay in the recovery wing and once I got home, I was good. It took me a week to have a bowel movement (TMI, but…

I had a diagnostic lap a zillion years ago. Recovery time is very quick. I’m an “innie” and my belly button post-op is even more so but it’s nothing obvious.

Mr Access is at a friend’s place watching horror movies and talking about politics. I’m at home with the cat, eating Chinese takeout (duck with mixed vegetables) and watching “Gilmore Girls.” Right now I’m drinking Diet Coke, but soon I’ll be drinking red wine from a Bota Box. That is, the wine comes from a Bota Box,…

I had laparoscopic surgery for an ovarian cyst almost a decade ago. Recovery actually wasn’t too bad. The incisions are pretty small, and my belly button looked weird for awhile but eventually went back to normal. My shoulder actually hurt worse than the incisions though. They pump you full of gas and it migrates up…

Can anyone share their experiences with laprascopic gynecological surgery? I have an ovarian cyst, I’ve had it for four years, and finally have insurance where I can actually afford to have surgery. I’m really on the fence about removing it since it isn’t causing significant symptoms, but every OB/GYN I’ve seen has…

Okay, for a bare moment I was the first person to SNS and it scared the shite out of me. I’m new to this, been reading for a couple of years but new to posting. I saw how much support was given freely and wanted to be a part of that. Also, I found Jez soon after moving abroad and it was lovely to read messages from…

I need some input this Saturday:

I bought a new computer today. It’s so shiny and pretty and new. Mostly it’s just really nice to have a computer again because my old one died like 4 months ago.
