My liver doctor advised against all supplements and alternative treatments such as coffee enema (yes, that’s really a thing).

Death row executioner.

No.

No.

Assuming brother-in-law’s wife is open to the situation, my first concern would be that brother-in-law will be exhausted with new baby. May be good idea to wait until baby has established a sleep pattern. When time comes that one of dog’s owners no longer want the responsibility, will the other owner step up to plate to provide life long home to dog? Sounds like a good setup for puppy if it’s training is consistent between the two homes.

I actually had a similar dream once about a partner I worked closely with. He was a highly accomplished man whose mind I respected but could not comprehend being attracted to him in a romantic manner. Since the dream was so odd to me, I did some reading on dream interpretation and analysis. Most important concept I recall is that when you’ve worked closely with someone and produced service or product you can take pride in, this may appear in dream to be a romantic interlude of “reproduction.” Not sure if I buy that, but it was reassuring to know that others had experienced same thing.

We saw it yesterday with my sis and her family. My 13 year old nephew attended; in fact, due to his strong interest in military history, he organized the outing.

My son got call from blood donation bank that he tested positive for HIV , so no longer eligible to donate blood. On the bright side, his viral load is undetectable, but doc started him on antiviral meds after *two* tests couple weeks apart. Apparently he is somewhat of a medical anomaly.

I too HATE paperless billing and have requested that bills not be sent by text or email. Today at orthopedist, we received bill by TEXT before we got out of parking lot onto street! Don’t get me started on lack of detail in invoice.

Living beings in the bed of moving pickup trucks make me shudder.

Hard to believe isn’t it? I’ve known someone to whom that happened. He died at home two days later from his hernia.

Lighting a candle for you and your son. Please keep us posted. Hopefully the liver may eventually heal itself.

Fasting is not necessary for A1C test.

Texas Proud, I’m sorry you are dealing with this frustrating issue. Many rescues transport cats from South to Northeast for ultimate adoption. For various reasons the South tends to have more homeless cats and dogs than North. Finding a home for the stray is not hopeless. Placing either cat as a barn cat in Texas probably is next to impossible; here the barns are overflowing with cats. If I read correctly, original cat is declawed. Please do not put kitty outdoors where it would vulnerable to predators and traffic. Fifty acres will not stop a cat from wandering into traffic; all it takes is one driver failing to notice kitty or not being able to stop in time. Could you build a catio for the urinator to live in safely outdoors? i had a cat with same issue that worsened with age. We took her in when mother in law died in 1980s. My husband had just purchased an expensive piece of equipment for his business. She peed on the control thingy. Also she had recently developed a heart murmur. I made the tough decision to euthanize her at age 16 to lessen stress on family. Your cat is leading a very stressful life to point that euthanasia may be a kindness.

To be fair, the utility company should have prioritized those already without power from earlier storm before working on recent outages.

When I lived inside our high crime rate city, a homeowner called cops on me one night. I was parked in a church parking lot at outer edge of lot underneath a lamp pole, so I could read book while waiting for my kid to finish a meeting that usually ran one to two hours. I had been there about an hour when cop knocked on window. Homeowner across street stated I was behaving suspiciously. I guess he wasn’t a reader. I also have a navigational disability so get lost often even with gps. After reading through this thread, I will work on not causing others unnecessary anxiety.

You We just lost power again at 8:45pm central during a mild storm. Update: came back on about 10 hours later

That is exactly what drove me away from Nextdoor as well as members’ automatic suspicion of teenagers and minorities.

I am in same suburb as original poster, and we are on day three without power. Utility company has restored little over half of outages. This morning utility company stated that remaining outages could take days to fix due to severe damage to infrastructure. Temps climbing daily and will be in 100s Thursday. We are using generator to power two refrigerators, fan, portable air conditioner and microwave. Should have invested in whole house generator when we remodeled this house.

Husband and I plan to donate our corpses to local university medical school. The school cremates body after they are done with it. As for memorial service, family can reminisce about the good times we had or nothing at all. Their choice.

Based upon past history, I would cut all contact with all members of birth family until or if my child wishes to meet them at an appropriate age
