I'm having a really hard time today.
Why is it hardest to ask for support when you most need it? At this point I don't know whether I'll get to speak to R this week or not. __________________ 'Somewhere up above the great divide Where the sky is wide, and the clouds are few A man can see his way clear to the light 'You have all the grace you need for today, and today is all that matters.' - Steve Austin |

As for the cost of hospitalization for a cat, it was way cheaper than I thought too. I thought it would be in the thousands. She easily cost me $700 for one vet visit but for some reason the hospitalization was really manageable money wise.

My IOP case manager is trying to get me more days for IOP. He texted and then called me for the MG on my new medication. I had just texted him back when the phone rang.
Then the T that I saw once on the 16th texted me to see where I was at in the IOP process and did I want another session, etc. I said I did but that I couldn't have one while I was in IOP because the IOP therapist said I couldn't see two therapists at one time. So I told her about being kicked out of IOP for 21 hours and so forth and how that all went down. She was like check with your case manager because I think you could use more support during your transition from IOP to outpatient. So I need to follow up with that. I don't know if he is getting me more days or not. I do know my insurance is paying a good deal for my treatment. I did ask covering IOP therapist if she would consider seeing me after IOP and we are going to talk about it tomorrow. I am bracing myself for a no because she didn't automatically say yes. So at least I do have that other T that I saw once. I just wasn't sold on her due to her health stuff and things. But she is confident she can help me so there's that. Ugh. Therapy can be so hard sometimes! __________________ Dum Spiro Spero IC XC NIKA |

I think this new medicine is making me hungry. That's all I need.

Yeah, in my case, I gained 15 pounds in like 2 weeks, which is ridiculous even if I was eating more. My pdoc took me off of it and put me on something else at the time (can't remember what - was a long time ago).
Keep an eye on it. He may tell you to try it a bit longer and just watch. |

This is not to set off any sort of debate, but, yay, FDA Advisory Panel recommends vaccine for 5- to 11-year-olds! A couple small steps to get through for full (emergency-use) approval, but could be available as early as late next week for kids my D's age in US.

I'm reluctant to let him stay at the vets for any length of time unless I have no other choice, because their policy is currently if they have to close again due to COVID, and your pet is already there, that you can't pick them up and the family is responsible for boarding charges for however long they have to be closed. That would be awful to have to leave him there with no way to visit him or knowing for how long. |

The old dining suite that we had for years that the ex gave to me when i moved into public housing was taken away today. It felt so good to hear it being broken up in the compactor.

Working with two year olds can be SO exhausting. We have one child who is constantly pushing/hitting EVERYONE in the class. All day long. And no intervention is really helping at the moment.

I have been getting paperwork together in preparation for a consultation later this week with a lawyer about disability accommodations. In organizing it, I keep thinking “gee, this whole experience has been as bad as/worse than I thought.”

Ugh. @@, just reading about it pisses me off. What the h is their problem? This is one area our university is pretty good in all around.
I’m sorry they suck so much. (P.S. Is it possible German Chider meant the confident comment as complimenting and aimed at also considering the needs of others who may not be able to advocate as well as you? As in the polite way to say Helllooooo, dumba*****, get your act together? Maybe I am projecting a little of my own wishes there because that’s what I want to say....) __________________ Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by accidents of time, or place, or circumstance, are brought into closer connection with you.
