Mitsubishi Jeep J3, 1953. Mitsubishi made Jeeps under licence to Willys from 1953 using CKD kits. They continued knock-down production of vehicles derived from the CJ-3B design until August 1998 selling them through the Galant Shop retail chain. The J3 refers to the fact this was the civilian version, the J1 was for the Japanese forest office and the J2 for the National Safety Forces.

hi everyone, i'm in need of some help. i hate asking others for anything, but this is different. as it concerns my babygirl of 13 years, apple. this cat has been with me thru everything. my parent's divorce, horrendous bullying throughout junior high, a couple breakups, a svicide attempt, loss, and much more. she is my rock and i wouldn't be here today without her. she got diagnosed with "kidney failure" by a vet on friday, and they swarmed my boyfriend in the clinic and urged us to put her down. that she wouldn't make it a week. i wanted some more time with her, so i took her home that day. when we got home, i started to panic because i was scared she was suffering, and got my boyfriend to contact his family vet to put her down that same day instead. to spare her from suffering. however, as we were in the patient room, about to sedate her to put her down, the doctor came in and looked at the bloodwork we received from the other vet. he immediately stopped the euthanasia-procedure and explained to me that she was not in kidney failure. that she was about in stage 2 of chronic kidney disease, and that she did not need to be put down. apparently some vets refuse to help cats with CKD and insist that there is no hope and that they should be put down upon diagnosis. but he didn't want to do that. so now here we are, she's back home with me and being just-about her usual self. however, CKD is common in senior cats and apple has it. it cannot be cured, and it is terminal, but cats with CKD can live happy, normal lives if they are given treatment and special care. (i've done lots of reading since thursday-friday.) of course though, vet bills and special food for apple is going to be expensive. so i would like to ask, if you can afford to commission me, or if you would like to donate at all, please check out my ko-fi. it would mean the absolute world to me, my boyfriend, my family, and apple. thank you so very much for reading ♥. please don't feel obligated to do anything, just keep her in your thoughts for me.

today’s my nephrology appt where i get to find out if my liver is also having problems or if the cold meds I took the week of the blood draws fucked up the results! My kidneys think their job is optional and I’m really hoping they didn’t get evangelical with my liver
Also if I’m still so vitamin D deficient I legally qualify as a vampire!
May come out of the appt with fun new dietary restrictions but I’m less worried about that as I am about my liver tbh

So. A lot had happened since I last posted...
In April of 2022 I tested positive for HIV. Not long after that I was diagnosed with stage 2 kidney failure. Over the course of 6mo, those kidney issues escalated to 0% functionality and in December I was sent to the ER for emergency dialysis. I’ve been on dialysis for 6 months, home dialysis for about 2 weeks now.
I’ll be moving home to Texas to be near family in the next few weeks. My boyfriend and I decided that this was the best way to go, as I need the support and he’s unable to move due to his job. Still amicable, still 100% civil, we just realized it’s time.
Pics are from the last year or so

There's a small chance he might make it. But a kidney transplant is very expensive, and it rarely works for cats with late stages of CKD. Plus, he's old and not likely to survive the stress. It's about $16- 20 million in USD. Bot including hospital care, follow-up treatments, and more. I'm determined to raise the money for one, and the deadline is tight, but if it works.. then what have I got to lose?

The most common side effect of finerenone is hyperkalemia, which you could guess from its mechanism of action. This can be reduced by concommitant administration of a potassium waster like furosemide or an SGLT2 inhibitor. Other potential side effects include hypotension and hyponatremia. Because strong CYP3A4 inhibitors increase finerenone levels, don't take with grapefruit (juice), and monitor K levels when given with other possible offenders. Avoid in patients with severe liver disease (Child-Pugh C, and maybe B). Finerenone is found in breast milk. It does not cause AKI. Image: American Journal of Managed Care

Dating with a chronic illness....
I've said it once and I'll say it again, date with chronic illnesses is almost impossible. I decided to try again and well, my results have been the same....either being completely disrespected or totally ghosted. I don't think my plus one is out there. And I'll be honest, it breaks my heart.
Once upon a time, dating used to be kind of easy. I was thin and pretty and the right type of man actually came around me. I had meaningful conversations and things kind of went somewhere. But after my divorce things got harder. And I got older and sicker things progressively got harder and well let's just say the pool of men was infested with algae and piss. Like I just can't believe what is coming my way now.
I get men with hundreds of kids or who don't have goals or careers or who are abusive( verbally and mentally), or who are very judgemental or who just ghost me. And well I will be honest, it hurts. It has made me question who I am amd what I am doing.
Allow me to explain. I know I'm not as thin as I used to be, I'm working on that, but I still have a great personality and many things to bring to the table. But apparently that's not good enough. The constant rejection has made me question my essential being and things like my approach to conversation, my reactions to certain things and what I reveal in conversation. I just don't understand anymore. I try and try and no matter what I get ghosted or rejected, most often times after they find out about my chronic illnesses or they when they find out I have a career ( which is quite odd). I have tried many ways to present it all and well each time it just doesn't work out.
At first it didn't hurt too bad but now the pain is deep. Some days I want to cry. I just want a fair chance like anyone else. I want a chance for that first date, a chance for good conversation and magic. But sadly I'll never get it. My guy friends try to make me feel better by saying it's not me it's them but I know the reality...it is me.
I try to paint a brave face like it's okay but I realize that I do deserve love and special things. I do deserve someone to go out to dinner with and to special events with. But, alas I guess I won't have that. It's just me, myself and I. I guess I've met my match. It's over now.
So what now? I'll wipe my tears, hold my head up high and find a new path. I'm sure there is some greater calling and purpose out there for me. One that doesn't require a mate. So here's to the new journey and the success it will bring.

For the last day of National Donate Life Month in the USA, I am posting the links to all of the donate life posts I have made this month. If you are interested in learning more please see the links below. Organ donation saves lives. If interested in learning more and you are in the United States you can visit the link in the above graphic. You can register there as well. There are a lot of people waiting for a kidney or other organ and some may not make it. I am ever so grateful for my deceased donor. You can save many lives and improve many more by registering. Thank you to all those who are registered organ donors. 🙏🏻 A simple reblog of the people in need of a kidney or other organ would help. Thank you for your consideration. 🙏🏻
Also- For all who have kidney disease of any type I recommend following @kidneystories2013
