Helo I was wondering if you could fo Law x reader with the reader having an heart disease,so like breathing problems and possibly heart attack? With cpr
Thanks in advance
I couldn’t find your rules
*I hope I did your ask justice! I'm not very well versed in medical slang, but I did some light reading and tried my best!❤️*
Tumblr media
Law liked to keep you by his side. Mostly because he enjoyed the company of his partner, but also so that he could keep a close eye on you. They'd joined his crew a year ago, and it was two months later that he learns that you have a heart condition. Every now and then, your heartbeat would change pace, either too fast or too slow.
It'd scared the hell out of your captain the first time you'd gone down, seemingly fine one second, and then swaying on your feet the next, hitting the deck before he could catch you. Law had scooped you up and booked it to his office, and then activated his devil fruit to find the heart of the problem.
You'd woken up halfway through his examination, eyes wide as you watched your new captain study your heart in his hands. He watched the organ jump in his hand and begin to beat at an irregular pattern. Law had turned on you and pointed at the heart cradled delicately in his hands.
"You have a condition called arrhythmia. You'll have to stay close to me from now on so that I can keep an eye on you. If your heart isn't pumping your blood correctly, it can lead to you passing out," He glared at you over that and then continued.
"Lack of oxygen is cause for CPR, and in worse cases, it can lead to a heart attack. I like you, _. So I'll take care of you."
The only thing you could do that day was give a teary nod. You knew that something had been wrong, but nothing that serious. From then on, you rarely left Trafalgar's side, and with that closeness came a budding relationship.
So it terrified Law any time he saw a change in your behavior. You've been lethargic all day but unwilling to rest. You assured him that you could continue your duties, and foolishly, Law had believed you. Two hours later, the doctor heard and thud and turned in his desk chair to see you on the floor.
Trafalgar dove out of his chair and press his fingers to the side of your neck. Your pulse was weak, but there. He cursed quietly and fisted his, keeping his palm just below your sternum and shifts to his knees. Law counts out loud.
"One, two, three..."
Before pausing in his compressions and dipping to pinch your nose and blow into your mouth. He does this three times before he rises and goes back to counting.
It takes longer than Law likes for you to finally come to, coughing harshly, and sitting up with a raspy gasp. Law helps you sit up, moving to sit behind your back so that you can rest against him. He rubs your back, and quiet reassurances fall from his lips.
"That's it, baby. I've got you."
You gladly let your boyfriend take your weight and try to regulate your breathing, "Sorry, Law. Guess I should have listened to my doctor, huh?"
Trafalgar huffs behind you and bends to press a kiss to the top of your head, "We do know a thing or two."

Heart Condition Headcanons
for a wonderful anon!
tenth doctor x reader
When you get your diagnosis he instantly goes into Protector Mode ™
He’s always been a bit protective over you but this only doubles (if not exponentially increases)
Completely fusses over you (more than usual)
Reminds you to take your meds, go to your appointments, and take it easy every now and then
Goes with you to your appointments if you want 
Hold your hand at the doctor’s office while rubbing reassuring circles on the back of your hand with his thumb
Usually “I love you” in Galleyfreyan 
He absolutely refuses to let you do anything that could put your heart at risk. Even if it’s something small he will frown and ask if you really should be doing it
He actually makes a conscious effort to go on safer trips that require significantly less running 
If there is danger he is quick to take charge and keep you safe (per usual)
Following his streak of protectiveness he takes to cuddling you in a way that allows him to lay his head on your chest to listen to your heartbeat
He knows the way your heart should sound and takes careful notice of any irregularities 
“What are you doing?” you ask after a few nights of this
“Listening,” he says like that explains anything
“Just making sure everything is alright.” 
When he can’t lay on your chest he will reach over and check your pulse
It’s like a nervous tick of his
You’ll just be sitting in the TARDIS control room and he will randomly grab your wrist 
Any time you are lying down or sitting with room for him he can and will lean against you
You always assume he’s thinking of some intelligent thing while you cuddle, but he’s just listening to your heart
The beat of it is calming to him and helps him sleep on restless nights
He’s a light sleeper though and will wake up if he hears an irregular beat, no matter how quiet.

Hi hi!! I was wondering if you could write a Daddy Klaus fluff where the little reader has a really bad issue with her heart (prone to heart failure and has a defib implant like me) and when she's having a bad anxiety attack he helps calm her down, makes sure her heart is beating okay, etc???
Tumblr media
His Sweet Little Heart
Klaus had noticed something off with Y/n's heart since day one when Marcel begrudgingly introduced them. Apparently she was one of Marcels only human friends, and he made it very clear that she wasn’t for Klaus to play with.
“Leave her be, Klaus” he muttered, not a hint of anything other than seriousness as Y/n approached them with a smile.
It only took one incident, Klaus had grabbed the poor girl, threatened her and pushed her into a panic. Marcel quite literally threw Klaus off her and was stroking her hair. After he took Y/n home and came back to yell at the hybrid, he spat out that Y/n had a heart condition and that he wouldn’t allow Klaus or anyone to risk her life.
Klaus didn’t really understand how Marcel and Y/n had become friends, perhaps through Davina who Y/n was also close with as it turned out.
She never spent too much time with Klaus to begin with but once everything happened with the baby, and she was under the impression that he had lost his child to witches, she tried to be as kind as possible to him. Klaus latched onto that kindness quickly.
He fed on it, he needed it. And she was so willing to give in. She’d talk with him for hours, sit and watch him paint and listen to him explain what the paint strokes meant. She would ask if he liked human foods, he said he liked beignets and she offered to go get some but he shook his head. “You do enough sweetheart, I’ll get them for us” he smiled and she softened, nodding and sitting back in the round snuggle chair he had bought for her.
Everything was quite sweet for a while, the Mikaelsons rarely went out and Klaus spent all his time with Y/n.
But then Hope turned out to be alive and suddenly the world was chaos again. Esther, Mikael, Dahlia, and anyone else was at the doorstep. Suddenly Y/n had a target over her head due to her relationship with Klaus and she couldn’t handle that well at all.
Far too often she would be wheezing for air, her heart failing to keep up with her breaths. Klaus would find her just in time, worry spread across his face as he wrapped his arms around her and held her in his lap. “It’s okay” he whispered “it’s okay, I’m sorry” he repeated, stroking her hair. His attention would be solely focused on her heart, waiting for it to beat correctly. There were few occasions when the fear settled in and he would pick her up, promising it was okay and speeding her to a hospital to make sure she was actually alright.
They always said to keep away from stressful situations.
Klaus never knew how to respond to that.
Often he would suggest she stay indoors, in his room preferably but that upset her. She wasn’t incapable and he knew that but he didn’t know how else to keep her safe.
Sometimes she would get herself so worked up about not being able to help that she’d push herself into a panic or anxiety attack. The first time it happened, Klaus had thought someone hurt her and was desperately trying to find a wound on her but after they kept happening and she refused to talk about it, he knew what was happening. And it scared him as much as it did her.
He would sit and listen to her heart weakly patter in her chest, the irregular pattern became familiar to him and alarm bells rang as soon as it went away from its peculiar rhythm.
On instinct he would scoop her into his lap, hips lips would find her face and soft words would be whispered into her ear. Gently he would caress his hand over the spot where her heart lay, waiting for it to calm down. “It’s alright my sweet little heart, let Daddy hold you” He would soothe quietly, his face nuzzling into her neck.
He sighs a sigh of relief when she snuggles back against him, her heart stabilising and her breaths coming out slower. “Mm sorry daddy” she would whisper but Klaus would always shake his head
“Don’t be sorry for something that’s not your fault” he would tell her with a loving smile and a soft kiss. Her head would rest against his chest and he would hum softly while picking her up and carrying her to their bed or the sofa so that they could be together and bask in the warmth of the other.
(It’s short but it’s something 😄 Once again struggling to write. That’s a lie, I’m struggling to write on here, Im actually trying to plan out a proper book that I wanna write one day. Probably won’t happen but it’s nice to have goals?)

Alright whump writers. Here’s a little something based on personal experience.
Whumpee with a hidden medical condition/disability
This is based on myself as someone with a heart condition and symptoms that I often don’t recognize until too late. Imagine a whumpee:
Forgetting to bring medicine on a trip and trying to hide symptoms
Stopping more often than others on missions to steady themself
Not telling the group about the condition to avoid concern
Disappearing for a few days without a word because they had to spend a few days in the hospital after a scare
Experiencing the beginnings of a cardiac episode but not saying anything
Getting worked up in an argument and having to leave so they don’t hurt themself
Confiding in one member of the group and having them promise to keep it secret
Passing out during an important mission
Fatigued from being put on new medication
Keeping a hidden medical journal with resting heart rate (RHR) and peaks for the week
Worrying about something unexpected causing an episode
Being kidnapped and going without medicine days/weeks
Being given placebos by an enemy and having a heart attack because of them
And imagine their caretaker:
Analyzing every model of defibrillator in case of an episode
Getting CPR certified
Watching them sleep after a medical scare
Constantly checking that they took their medicine/have their prescriptions filled
Panicking the first time they go into cardiac arrest
Losing sleep trying to find them, knowing they’re kidnapped without medicine
Booking/taking them to doctor’s appointments
Becoming their emergency contact
Getting them a medical ID/dog tag with their condition listed
Studying all warning signs connected to their condition and similar conditions
Traveling hours away to bring them their medicine
Treating them like their made of glass after they’ve had an episode
I love medical whump and I should write something with loads of it!!!

After 2 and a half years of gaslighting, fighting and waiting lists i was finally diagnosed with PoTS last week and part of me wants to be petty and send my diagnosis letter to every doctor that ever said it was anxiety but a larger part of me is just happy to finally have some answers about some of my symptoms.

Brett Ball 🫡 Salute😍✊🏿🙏🏿
It was very early in Brett Ball’s experience as a student-athlete with the women’s basketball team that things did not go her way. She came to South Carolina in the summer of 2011 as a scholarship athlete. But before the season began, she was diagnosed with myocardial non-compaction in the left ventricle— a rare genetic heart condition that made it impossible for her to play basketball.
photos of brett ball as a team member and as a Ph.D. candidate
Years: 2011-15
Position: Team vlogger
Key stats: Ball was diagnosed with a heart condition and never got to play for the Gamecocks, but she stayed on scholarship all four years and helped fans get an inside look at the team through her behind-the-scenes videos.
Degrees: Bachelor’s in criminal justice, UofSC; master’s in integrated communications, University of Mississippi
Current position: Ph.D. student in health communication, University of Florida
“I totally could have just said, ‘I’m leaving, this is not going to work out for me,’ ” says Ball, a Ph.D. student in health communication at the University of Florida. “But Coach Staley honored my scholarship. I was still part of the team. When we would travel, I was there; when we had film, I was there; I still attended practices. I did pretty much everything the team did, except work out and play.
“She still coached me as if I was on the court, but in a different way,” Ball says of Staley. “I had to be on time for practice. I had to be on time for class. She didn’t let me just go about in my own way.
“At first I didn’t like it because I was just so frustrated with not being able to play. I thought, ‘I’m not playing so why do I need to do these things.’ But it still made me feel part of the team because I was held to the same standards.
“I don’t know if she had ever had a player under her wing who didn’t play. What are you going to say to make them feel better? She would say there was nothing she could do to help me play, and the only thing she can do is be a guide and I totally respect that. The best thing she could do was be a support system.”
Staley and the basketball media team came up with an idea that Ball would do videos with her teammates to highlight their many off-the-court talents and build up excitement among fans. The show was called Ballin’ with Brett.
“Our team was pretty dynamic,” says Ball, who graduated from UofSC with a degree in criminal justice. “We could have had our own TV show. We had rappers, comedians, drama queens. We definitely had a team full of personalities.”
Producing and hosting the videos got Ball interested in journalism and communications — an interest she has pursued since her time at South Carolina, earning a master’s in integrated communications from the University of Mississippi in her home state.
“It was as good an experience as I could have had without being able to play ball.”
She expects to complete her dissertation and Ph.D. in May. Her research focus is on mental health among African American female athletes, a subject she knows much about.
“Being nine hours away from home, if you’re not somewhere with resources — and USC had resources from A-to-Z — it can be difficult,” she says. “The school had people there who helped with the stress. We had two Black psychologists in the athletic department and that was really helpful for me. That’s how I got started looking into the mental health of athletes.”
Ball says she talked with her advisers and mentors at UofSC before each major life decision she has made. She says she is uncertain where her Ph.D. will take her, but lessons learned from her time with Staley and the Gamecocks women’s basketball program will never leave her.
“I am really interested in ways to improve the mental health of student-athletes. I want to figure out ways to destigmatize mental health and mental illnesses within the athletic and sports space.
“I want to use my experience with mental health, my experience not being able to play and experience with cases of depression and anxiety and I want to be able to help athletes, even if it is from an academic standpoint, about what Black female student athletes have to go through."

After my rant in the tags of my last reblog, I want to share some tips I've gathered while navigating caffeine with a heart condition, that could potentially help someone. Plus some other caffeine safety that I learned from my cardiologist:
1. JUST BECAUSE A BOTTLE DOESN'T HAVE THE CAFFEINE CONTENT LISTED ON IT DOESN'T MEAN IT DOESN'T HAVE CAFFEINE!! The unlisted caffeine content doesn't just apply to fountain drinks. Companies are not legally required to label bottles/cans/food of their caffeine content, only as an ingredient in the products. I myself have gotten super sick because of this. Caffeine Informer is a good site to look up caffeine content for drinks, especially if you can't find it on the label.
2. Say something happens and you drink way too much caffeine, drink LOTS of water to flush your system, get something to eat, and sit/lay down. Keep an eye on your heart rate and blood pressure, get medical attention if possible. Caffeine has an average half life of 5 hours so it may take some time before you feel better.
3. If you are going to drink a caffeinated drink, drink water beforehand so you don't end up chugging your drink and accidentally give yourself a caffeine overload.
4. To go in hand with the last point, eat something too. Preferably something high in carbs or fat to slow down how fast your stomach absorbs the caffeine. This is where you hear of people putting butter and other oils/fats in their coffee.
5. This may be common sense to some but If you drink caffeine while taking medications such as beta blockers or other anxiety/blood pressure lowering medication, you will render your medicine useless. Your medication will not cancel out the caffeine. Always check if caffeine interacts with any medications you take.
It's upsetting that some of this needs to be said, I wish proper caffeine content labeling was something we didn't have to ask for. If anyone has anything else to add to this, feel free to do so. it's late as I'm writing this so I'm definitely slipping on a few things.

Fireworks aren’t harmless.
Reminder that fireworks are seriously disruptive to millions of lives and frankly your enjoyment isn’t worth my grandma’s pacemaker giving out due to a ptsd attack. or animals’ sheer terror. or the air quality in entire towns. or the risk of fire from stray embers. two years ago we lost the only gay bar in our community to a fire because someone decided to set off fireworks nearby.
