My husband suddenly got super sick at the age of 31 with Acute eosinophilic Pneumonia (they thought it was ARDS caused by infection- it took a while to diagnose him) - he was in an induced coma for 10 days on an oscillator. Those were the worst 10 days of my life. He thankfully survived and even though it’s been 11 years, I still remember his nurses faces and their kindness to me with my 1001 questions, a pat on the shoulder, a blanket, etc. The ICU nurses were just amazing. Truly. I don’t think you all realize what a lifeline you are to patients and family members. Thank you for what you do.

How are people paying their bills? That’s the biggest concern for many in the US.

Do you think that it’s possible your father’s views of your mother have colored your own view of her?

Decide if that’s what you want in a relationship. I couldn’t be with someone that was disinterested in sex tbh. My husband and I have been together for 25 years, we have had periods where one or the other had a lack of a sex drive (like med changes for him, I had severe pain from endometriosis for a few years that made sex painful, etc)…….I have to say I think those were the worst times in our marriage, because it leaked into other aspects of our relationship. I highly doubt we would have made it this long if we didn’t have a similar sex drive (minus medical issues lmao). I think it’s a really important aspect that so many overlook, or are told they are selfish for caring about.

Breasts are lumpy- you need to do this every time you shower at first to get used to the feeling of your breasts. That way you will notice when something doesn’t feel right.
