To try to add to the humor (hope it’s not offensive); but I’m asking this at risk of dating myself (well, I’m a 54 yo ina “feels like 80 yo body”)...
But back to the ?...
The Seinfeld episode where Kramer dropped his Junior mint from OR observation deck and it landed in the patient’s body & they closed him up!!! OMGosh; lived that show & friends & Cheers! Maybe I shuddered started a new thread...hope this brings smile to many faces.
I’m also a retired nurse (@ age 45 (after stage 1 and BM w/Tram Flap—I just couldn’t do it anymore mentally or physically—I was a school nurse and heavy heavy politics going on—so I went out on disability & honestly never looked back. I do miss being a nurse; but I was glad to be a mom (my kids were 10 & 12 at the time; now I’m an empty nester and it’s bittersweet; but I’m gonna volunteer, (once I get a car; currently relocating from Boston to California) had 3-4 ideas:
•newborn babies (maybe drug-dependent); just wanna give back & oh boy do I love newborns—worked in maternal child health back in day—but they started rotating nurses and I only liked the newbies (couldn’t handle pediatrics),
Anyhoo:
#2. Working with those who are aging out of Foster care—mentoring, helping them acclimate to independence fubdraisers, etc...
3. Red Cross! Always wanted to teach—maybe now that my kids aren’t here (it’s only been 10 days & God how I miss them!! But I think if I busy myself as I am able (even if it’s 2 hours a week!
4. Hospice volunteer: I’ve been thru this with 3 family members and was visiting nurse for 10 years! I just don’t really wanna do the training—sounds exhausting—trouble committing to specific schedule cuz of multiple reasons: pain insimnia anxiety etc. I have Service Psychiatric dog too; who’ll need to fit into whatever I end up volunteering. My daughter says I should blog as I love writing obviously! Who knows time will tell. 22 mo thx on Ibrance &Fenara—next scan in November—starting to get Scanxiety already cuz it’s always been every 3 months now new ONC said every 4; wish I said no to that; but in a way once I’m used to every 4 months it’s better as that’ll be one less bout of scam-cirrus per year.
Last 2 questions, I promise1. I have pimples around my lips (within 1/19-1/4”—any suggestions; haven’t had since I was teenager; but painful; but unrelenting—seems to never go away & if it does the moment I’m off the coast to coast flites they’re back again—hmm it’s prob something in air on airplane—I always crunge when I hear a cough or a sneeze—esp when they sound not covered; I’m not a germaohobw but immunocompromised so I’m aware—planes are pretty disgusting!
2. Thinking of lowering Ibrance on 125 at present & trying The injectionthat bwgibs with F ?? Fulvestrant
(I think it may help brain fog though I’m on Ativan, Zoloft & Ambien—any advice; can’t seem to sleep even after meds (obviously, as it’s 1:30 AM PCT)!
Anyhow hope I made ya laugh & look forward toopinions suggestions or other favorite throwback tv—I loved Pippi Longstockings & dtr (now 20-loved Scooby-Doo soo! I also loved knots landing but never got into Dallas. Hi all this is a LONG ONE—sorry; can’t sleep again !Recently I binged BigLittleLies 2 seasons! Love movies and gonna try to make friends here who like daytime movies so I’m not always alone when I go; don’t mind so much cuz it’s Bert dark in theatre. Love drive-in theatres-nostalgic...but no one to go with—awarkward; I could take my pug who luvs tv ebenthough I don’t watch much!
Love and bless & 🙏👍😍🤣😀toall!
Any thoughts on this or sheet Seinfeld; now I know I shuddered started a new thread—I’m gonna cut n past—but I’ll reference you in the title so maybe u’ll get a laugh and those who are unable to continue nursing careers—my heart goes out—& if at all possible try to volunteer—even if it’s from home—there are hotlines for those with newly diagnosed cancer etc—think they require training...
