Pro lifers genuinely believe that you should be forced to carry and give birth to a disabled child that will need constant care their whole lives while they continue to support the party that vows to cut funding for every program that would help those individuals the most
After giving birth, a woman's internal wounds take six months to heal, 12 months for physical recovery, two years for hormonal balance, and up to five years to rediscover her identity. Relationships frequently fail during this time due to a lack of understanding. Be kind and patient with new mothers; they are facing more challenges than it appears.
This pastor was talking about partners helping their partners with chores and a married man goes "But pastor, I go to work everyday to provide for the family, how do you expect me to still cook and clean"?
The pastor then asked him "Does your wife go to work? he said yes😂😭
In 2012 i was diagnosed with a deadly blood disorder known as TTP. I was in the hospital for a month. A white nurse almost killed me because she thought i was drug seeking. I kept telling her my central line in my groin was hurting& she wouldn’t give me any morphine just Tylenol.
I went septic later on that night because of the central line. I went into SVT and had to go to cardiac ICU for a week. I was 18. My TTP flared up again in 2016 and i went to the ER. I told the (white) doctor that i had TTP and that i needed to be admitted. He had my records right in front of him. I was just there 4 years earlier, the same hospital diagnosed me.
He told me that i didn’t have TTP…i had ITP. He sent me home with steroids and pain meds. I cried and cried and sat at home all weekend until i could get to my hematologist. I called them and they had me come in immediately. Got labs drawn…my hemoglobin and platelets were VERY low. They did a direct admit: I had to get 14 bags of platelets and 3 bags of blood. My hematologist and his NP told me if i would’ve waited any longer i would’ve died.
More recently in 2022 i went to a freestanding ED because i thought i had the flu. I was in pain, my blood pressure was elevated, i had a fever. I told the black NP that i have TTP and asked them to do a cbc and ADAMTS13 level if they could. I got pain meds, waited for the (white) doc to come and see me. He told me ny labs were ��fine” and that i just had a stomach virus. I didn’t believe that so i asked him what my platelet count was. He told me 30k (normal platelet count in non chemo patients are 150k-400k) i almost lost my shit on him.
He went back and further with me for 10 minutes about how i wasn’t having a TTP flare up and i told him to call the fucking hospital that I’m usually treated at and find me a bed. He begrudgingly did it. He came back not even 10 minutes later and said that the hospital i usually go to was full (it was around Christmas time) but after the on call hematologist at the level 1 trauma center downtown saw my blood work they wanted me to come in IMMEDIATELY. Hematologist told me if i would’ve waited any longer i would’ve been dead before Christmas.
Every time that I’ve almost died it was either at the hands of a white nurse or doctor. They don’t take our pain or complaints seriously! They think we are drug addicts. I literally became a nurse because of this. We need black doctors. That lawsuit is just a bunch of fucking racists who are mad. Fuck them.
A lot of you never held any leadership role prior to marriage. Not your offices, not in associations you belong to, not even headboy of your primary school, so marriage is the one place you finally get to be the local champion leader you’ve been having wet dreams about.
Pathetic
I hate when you're looking for apartments to rent, you find one reasonably priced and then you realize they're Senior living apartments. I mean, I'm in bed by 9pm and I get up at 5am. I QUALIFY.
