Early, hopefully temporary, retirement spending all my energy defeating an untimely cancer diagnosis.

4 grown children , 2 daughters in law, 4 grandchildren, wonderful husband and my best buds: Loki my heart dog- 3 yo Golden and Jaz, rescued 1 yo flat coated retriever.

Surgical PA, inspired to obtain my MD- practicing has been so important -I truly miss everything about it? 

So glad to continue meeting and pming with so many in this wonderful community!❤️

 
@Screla I wanted to like you post, but felt that liking cancer just isn't right.

I know you will win your battle and get back to doing what you love. We love having you with us!

 
I'm sorry to hear this @schrela! I really wish you the best, all the positivity I can muster and hope we have you for years to come!  ☺ 

 
@schrela - You can beat that cancer, others have done it, and you know how to fight back.  I don't know if it helps, but in the days immediately after my heart attack, and subsequent diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension, there were times I felt lackadaisical, and just wanted to give up (I trained for years to reach the level of physical conditioning I was maintaining, and to be told  "You'll never be able to do that again" was large suckage) - But I convinced myself I had to overcome this affliction for my family - Who else would provide for them?  Cheesy, I know...But it worked, or I wouldn't be typing this.

Best regards my friend - My money's on you in this fight.

@Back2GoodI really appreciate you taking the time to send me your positive thoughts and wishes! It means a lot to me- this forum is a wonderful, supportive community and I've truly valued getting to "know" so many compassionate people.

I'm impressed with your strength and resolve to fight and move forward after your heart attack and especially pulmonary hypertension!

your family must be wonderful❤️

Best

@PTFCand of course thank you also!!  You are always so right on the money with everyone and everything on this forum - I'll take a dose of your energy and positive attitude anytime

 
I'm a home health care nurse. I love the hands-on- people aspect of nursing, but the charting is kicking my "You-know-what". I'm an older nurse and it takes me a little longer to finish tasks. It doesn't help that I struggle with a lot of psych issues and take a whole lot of meds. My  MD prescribed addys, mainly for focus and concentration. They have helped, but the good ole' MD won't increase the dose. No more discussion or else what she currently allows will be discontinued. So, I've learned to search the net, found this wonderful group, and, I'm  finding other creative ways to get what I need.

It's crazy to see the people on here whom are from all walks of life. I would have never expected anyone from the medical field from here. Until just now I assumed anyone in the medical field would be able to get the proper meds they need. 

 
I am not a thief, so I don't take medication meant for my patients. I do have some moral and ethicts. I love my job and I don't see my job as my supplier. That would get me fired real fast, and I am not that desparate. Buying vitamins over the internett only affects me personally. Taking what's not mind affects the weakest in health care. Big difference.

Oh not for a second did I think you were stealing meds. I hope you didn't take that the wrong way. What I meant was being that you are in the medical profession you would have the proper channels and have the relationships with doctors in order to get the meds you need. Again sorry if I offended you!

 
I install impact windows, doors, glass, the big stuff sometimes.  Hot, heavy and usually dangerous

 
I am a full time self employed transport engineer, and part time self enjoyed cannabis connoisseur!   :784_peace:

I'm retired very fortunately married to a retired older man. Full time pot grower while in Denver. Leaving my home down south can't wait to start growing again. Got a ton of seeds from Attitude Seed Bank and hundreds of more I keep in jars from friends in California and Denver. People in Denver are so kind they just give away clones and seeds to me. But I'm not a clone person like to grow from seed so put indica clones outside don't want them bringing problems in my veg or grow rooms. I got some DJ Short Blueberry calling my name and some blue dream kosher Kush and white widow etc.... Like to think of myself as the grand mistress at monster cropping. Everyone says my husbands tomatos are beautiful because we use access Advanced Nutrients and Root Excelutator and other organic nutes to my veges!

I keep my private life and my work life seperate, so I wouldn't dream of using any kind of connection that would get in the way of professionalism. I could  and I will never ask for presciriptions from doctors I work with.  I am not the kind of person to take advantage even if there was a loophole I could.

Ok I understand. I still didn't mean it that way at all either. It's been nice chatting! Have a great weekend!

  1. 3 @ 3ak: @xenxra damn shame, can't find any of the rc stims
  2. xenxra @ xenxra: @3ak mostly, will prob be gone entirely by end of summer imo
  3. F @ frozenSR17: hope everyone has a nice start 2 their weekend. "keep it one hunnid," as someone once said to me
  4. 3 @ 3ak: 4f-mph dried up?
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: pretty sure black also went rogue sometime late last year
  6. Strawhat7 @ Strawhat7: Yo, whatever happened to Mr. Black? Just got a rando email from him after ghosting me like a year and a half ago
  7. LW815 @ LW815: Know what’s really going on in somebody else’s head or how much they’re really dealing with and feel like they’re left with no other options. Been a very sad few days but 2 complete (irl anyway) strangers cared enough about what I was going through to talk to me about it, though they owe me nothing and have no reason to help my personal pain other than the kindness in their own hearts. Just shows that this place is a real community, not just a forum of people who only care about themselves.
  8. LW815 @ LW815: Was nodding in/out the entire time writing those shouts and spparently was fully out sending the last one lol. But II find it ‘uplifting’ as two people I’ve never actually met and only know the others online presence through subscriptions, who I have a better chance of getting a handy J from Jesus Christ himself, both were so quick to share their own experience and wise words and assurances that things will look up and not to feel guilty or be mad at somebody for going that route - as you never
  9. xenxra @ xenxra: @hotdog45 meh, same difference. they both got blacklisted on here. wouldn't be the first time a rogue shop sent out unsolicited comms after the fact.
  10. MOD @ MOD: Hello @everyone
  11. LW815 @ LW815: Own personal experience with this kind of this type kind of situation and sympathized with my pain when I really just needed somebody to talk to. Both went out of their way to help a stranger in a time of need when I really needed somebody, and body to talk to. MM
  12. LW815 @ LW815: Sent a simple conf email and I just dropped a ball on them. I really just needed to let it out, didn’t expect them to reply in such a thoughtful way that it drastically changed the rest of my day and mindset for the bette . Above and beyond - and the last night while chatting with another that I knew had at least once one child,, so i wished them a belated happy Father’s Day, which again caused me to spill it all to them and again received the most thoughtful and kind response, as well as their-
  13. LW815 @ LW815: They didn’t need to. They could have just continued on with the nature or the main purpose of what the relationship between us is, I didn’t really have anybody else to let it out to at the time and they both went far beyond what I’d expect. Not that I’d assumed they’re cold/A-holes - it was just a lot from somebody who’s technically a competent stranger. A very close friend of mine committed suicide on Father’s Day and iwas emotionally wrecked witih nobody to talk to, and the first author just
  14. LW815 @ LW815: @Mokachin0 not really uplifting in the normal sense, but two popular authors on here took the time out of their likely very busy days to not only read my massive walls of text, but both also replied with the most kind, thoughtful and positive responses when I randomly dumped my personal problems into their laps
  15. H @ hotdog45: I have never ordered mags from him I meant
  16. H @ hotdog45: @xenxra I thought that too but after digging on the site it is chemical cabinet. Either way I deleted the email. I have ordered mags from him, but I thought you guys should know he's reaching out to people again. After reading the thread if anyone gets an email from him I would suggest doing the same.
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @hotdog45 isn't that ghost? he threw his rep in the trash and got blacklisted
  18. O @ oh be g: thank you! hopefully this will inpsirw someone!
  19. M @ Mokachin0: @oh be g check your dms!
  20. O @ oh be g: these were instilled in me by a coworker who has had about the worst trauma experiences in life and he is still the most positive upbeat guy ive met
