In the beginning, nursing was both an art and a career, and it is still seen as a caring profession. Nursing care is now regarded as a scientific profession and is defined as the provision of patient care about nursing needs.

The reconstructive surgery Zim performed didn't hold up very well.

Now Dib can spy on people with his eyes closed.

for like 3 weeks i was wondering why i was sleeping so much and felt listless. and just now I managed to email 3 people and responded to a month old message in the span of an hour because I got back to TAKING MY FUCKIN MEDS..........

#MOTHER FFFFUCKER #to be fair. my doc said I could stop taking them while im on break since i wouldnt need to be constantly pumped on stimulants #im not sure if it was a side effect but i managed to take like 3 different naps in one day and STILL managed to sleep thru the whole night #at least 2 days into my break. the weird thing is i didnt feel more or less rested afterwards. but mentally i think im in a good place rn #to really put the level of awakeness im at rn i feel weirdly confident i could start one piece. also bc of that sick new opening it BANGS #the song is really good and im in love with the animation style. did some digging and it seems one of the lead animators is masato mori #but i could be wrong. it seems he also did some work on mp100 which could explain a lot lol.. he uses smear frames really well to convey #consistent movement and fluidity!!! someone else might have done color design but it works really really well esp with odas style!! #just love the overall vibe and aesthetic and id really love to study it and incorporate a bit of it into my art.. especially the thick #outlines which i think helps to separate characters and objects on screen. though i have to say the style is definitely more suited to #animation bc of the simpleness and smears. maybe that will help me explore shapes and perspective when i draw... i wanna get better #at drawing poses and angles but i have a hard time wrapping my head around space and using perspective guide lines NGHHHH #i wonder if it has to do with my dogshit ability to judge distance. not depth perception but like. judge how far smth is in metres etc #im also wearing an N95 for the first couple weeks back bc of the wave. absolutely NO BODY is wearing a mask its so fucking over #where im sitting ive heard 5 different people coughing probably not into their elbows!!! and im just. head in my fucking hands #there was a kid sitting a couple seats away in class coughing as he pleases and i wanted to grab him in a chokehold so badly. PLEASEE #ive been annoying my family by asking them to mask up and reminding them to bring masks when they go out and showing them news articles #but at least its working bc we ordered some KN95s and my mom is at least taking me seriously so. please dont be afraid to speak up abt your #health. take care of yourself and others however u can!! wear that mask indoors at your maskless friends house!!! stay home when u can!! #im wearing a surgical mask at home too bc my parents have '''a dry throat cough''' and they are so bad at coughing into their sleeves #also im pretty sure dry throat isnt transmissible bc my brother started coughing too so.. i also tested negative but they havent tested yet #im also not a doctor but i have to keep reminding ppl whenever i can that covid and flu work differently. covid is new and too recent to #have nearly as much research done on it. it seems its also compounding so instead of building immunity it weakens the body and spreads to #to other systems which might explain brain fog and muscle weakness. i remember someone early in the pandemic got infected and it messed up #their smell/taste receptors so bad that they cant eat most foods and that stays in the front of my mind when i think abt covid. christ #yapping

i think everyone on sunnytwt needs to be sat down so i can explain to them what basic human empathy is. and then maybe i put them in a blender until they agree to write meta about the characters instead of whether or not charlie day got facial reconstruction surgery.

#ada speaks #u do not exist in a vacuum and your words have the capability to harm others #celebrities may not see your tweets but your balding transmasc mutual and your follower who feels self conscious about her nose will #it is fucking bizarre the way these people conduct themselves online #really. really fucking weird man #and then you see them acting like ppl are 'defending rich white men' #instead of taking issue with the actual shit theyre saying #whether or not you think rcg has been 'under the knife' or not #a) how is this any of your business. you are not entitled to this info nor do you have a free pass to criticize someone's personal choice #b) ask yourself why you feel you need to critique alleged surgeries and how they stack up to imposed conventional beauty standards #c) you do not *own* them. you can have opinions on your own attraction to them but #a person getting plastic surgery or hair plugs or whatever is up to them. not you. if it helps to make them feel better then who cares. #just because it doesn't make them attractive to YOU doesn't mean its okay to point and laugh #if a trans guy got top surgery and it was 'botched' would you act like they were stupid for getting it in the first place? #if a trans woman decided she wanted to surgically shave her jaw would you shame her for that? #it's their body. it's not yours. #for the record i don't believe any of them have gotten work done but think its a stupid thing to speculate on regardless #ive watched family members go through plastic surgeries of varying success. ive seen them get botox and hair plugs and everything #normal everyday people do it and it's not always about vanity #it can be for gender reaffirming reasons (and yes this includes when cis people do it) to alleviate dysphoria #trying to point out alleged surgical alterations made is just. gross #not to mention that holy shit MOST of the shit ppl are saying is like. age. different hairstyles. different facial expressions. #maybe if these people actually watched the show theyd be able to see the gang in action instead of staring at pics like spot the difference

[topsurgerystuff]

Now, I will expound upon the scary things. These are things that happened after top surgery that spooked me.

All of these things ended up being harmless, I just wasn’t told they would happen and couldn’t find any info about them so they scared me shitless. My intention here is to save others from similar needless panic. This is not medical advice, just a description of my experience. Well some of it is advice, but keep in mind that I’m fucking stupid and I don’t know shit. Also, Never for one second have I regretted this surgery. The only thing I miss about my tits is being able to grope them whenever I wanted.

Okay so first of all there was the bruises. Blood from the surgery had pooled in my love handles and all over my thighs under my skin and made these HUGE bruises, right, and they didn’t hurt but they were large and had funky colors and I thought “What if the blood rots under my skin”. I googled it, I asked all my friends, I tried to reach my doctors but it was the weekend so they didn’t answer so I went to urgent care and the doctor there was like “I dont know…. That’s scary….” So I was freaking out and decided I would simply wait for death to claim me. It was fine. When I finally got ahold of the doctor she said she’s never seen it before but to just watch it and tell her if it gets bigger. My body slurped that shit back up in a couple weeks, totally harmlessly. Why haven’t surgeons ever seen shit like that before? Probably because nobody’s ever freaked out about it enough to mention it to them. Either way, it was fine.

Secondly, when I had those drains in me, that was spooky because I thought “What if they get yanked out and tear up my shit” and I couldn’t take off the bandage too see or nothing but when I did eventually take them off, I saw that there are stitches around the pipes but not like holding them in you, just there to make sure the holes they put in you stay the same size they are. So if they get pulled out you don’t get seriously damaged, you just call them up and say yo can you put this shit back in me pls. There will also be little meat chunks coming through your tubes with your soup and the soup will be mildly funky smelling. That’s normal. I was told to tell them if there was like CRAZY amounts of meat or if the soup smelled absolutely nasty. Also the bolster things they put on your nips are attached directly to your nips and nothing else, so if you feel shit sliding around under your bandage, that’s the bandage sliding, not the bolsters. They didn’t tell me that so I thought I was gonna wake up with one on my back or something and not be able to put it back where it was. And they make it so it’ll be nice and slippery in there the whole time so don’t worry about the bolsters getting ripped off, there’s not enough friction in there to do that.

There was also the hydrocodone they gave me. For me, the incisions didn’t hardly hurt at all even immediately after surgery but they prescribed me hydrocodone so I took it, and I assumed I wasn’t hurting because of the drugs and that if I stopped taking them I would hurt a LOT. So here I am taking opioids and I’m so fucking dizzy and I’m violently throwing up for two days. I texted my doctor and begged to stop taking it because I thought I would get in trouble or something if I stopped without asking and she’s like “Yeah, you didn’t have to take it if you didn’t want to, its just there if you need something stronger” ohhhhhhhh well fuck me I guess. So I stopped taking it and it turns out I didn’t need pain meds at all because it barely hurts, it just feels like a really long paper cut.

Some other things, I popped a stitch in my armpit because when you first come home and your shits still all numbed up, you can’t feel it when you overstretch your arm so if you forget you’re not supposed to do that, you can pop a stitch. It got infected, I put some antibiotic on it, it took a long time to heal and it made the scar a little uglier but it didn’t cause anything crazy. I will say that my incisions go up into my armpits really far and it was real hard to keep them clean on account of all the sweat. My nipple grafts also had many tiny, shallow stitches and I thought “What if they fall out because they’re so shallow”. That’s normal. My dad said that’s how you do stitches for sensitive areas so they look pretty, and they do look pretty, and also they are supposed to fall out after a couple weeks, that is also normal. Just make sure they don’t fall out too soon I guess. Pretend you’re made of glass for the first 4 weeks, honestly.

Also, your nip has the little oil glands in it, right, and when you’re nip scabs over as it is supposed to, it will scab inside these oil pores and you’ll lose the whole rest of the scab and have these little leftover scraps, and you Must. Not. Pick them. Those pores in my nips are little craters now because I picked the scabs out of them. Every scab you pull off, even the ones that are thin and tiny and already hanging halfway off, is going to make your nip even uglier. You wont die but you will say “Ugh why did it do that”.

Also, my nip hole collects nasty shit in it that I have to clean out all the time and since I can’t feel anything in there I have the be VERY careful. Skin is actually very easy to puncture. And there’s like little caverns in there that also get stuff in them a lot so I still put antibiotic on my nips after I shower just in case? Not really sure if its infection or like dead skin… its been getting better over time at least. Sorry if that’s TMI but listen, somebody’s gotta talk about it.

Sometimes my scars, the main incisions, will get these little blackheads right in the middle of them or little pockets of infection, and I always pick at them and the scar tissue isn’t very strong so when you pick at things on your scar, you will break open all the blood vessels around it and have a big red spot and the scar tissue is such that you will not get the blackhead out anyway so just dont do that. Put some antibiotic on it. Honestly just put antibiotic on anything that looks sus. Antibiotic can solve anything.

Okay idk what else to say so end post goodbye.

stephen maturin has such a specific and intense flavor of tboy swag. normally w historical characters being HC’d as trans and depicted w any kind of gender affirming surgery it just works as a suspension of disbelief thing but in stephen’s case I truly believe he’s enough of a wild card to strongarm someone into helping him w guerilla top surgery in the canon setting

#aubreyad #type of guy to threaten a med school classmate w blackmail in exchange for the surgical opportunity of a lifetime (cutting off his tits) #it probably looks messy as fuck but I don't think he would care #jack asks if he was cut in half and he says 'not exactly' but refuses to elaborate #screaming and then silence #someday I will get off my ass and draw a comic abt my hyper-specific headcanons. not today tho

Being marginalized, especially in multiple ways, is just learning most people don’t give a shit about your happiness, health, or safety. It hurts the worst imo when even people in one marginalized group you’re a part of don’t give a shit about you bc you’re part of another marginalized group they don’t care about. And they’re not even honest about it, they pretend to care, and they think they’re good people as they’re hurting you.

#I’m just disappointed in most people at this point honestly #but it’s getting so hard to act normal around most people even for brief interactions #just got a haircut and the hairdresser refused to wear the N95 I brought in favor of a surgical mask and said she knows she’s not sick #and then give me bullshit health advice like that sunlight before noon is really healing and something about negative air when it rains #and then say how excited she was to see Dave Chapelle live #and she knows I’m trans and I’m sure she thinks of herself as an ally #this also goes for all the queer people who aren’t covid-conscious #and all the covid-conscious people who aren’t for disability justice #and racism in the queer community and pretty much any intersection of marginalized identities #I just don’t understand how people can care about one marginalized group and be completely disconnected from the others? #not being intersectional feels like it almost defeats the point #my post #original post #personal #a secret third kind of post #leftism #intersectional leftism #marginalized people #marginalized groups #socialism #communism #anarchism #anarchy

2024 year of charlie gets a fucking break (hopefully. maybe. tbd.)

#ctxt #i'm on medication that's reduced my post-hysterectomy pain by about 70% #i have an intake appointment with a physical therapist in march & a referral to start trigger point injections #to hopefully finally recover as completely as possible from the nightmarish neuropathy that's plagued me since uuuhhhh #going on 2 years ago. holy shit. genuinely can't believe i've been surviving & functioning as well as i have for this long #while suffering a disabling & extremely painful surgical complication. fuck my original surgeon for brushing me off during that time #but the new provider i'm working with is so responsive & thorough in her approach & seems genuinely committed #to helping me finally get relief after all this time. she listens to my feedback & is flexible in her approach #and her assistant is a great communicator who's been handling most of the logistics of care coordination for me #and what a huge fucking relief that is. to not have to drag my doctors kicking & screaming towards maybe treating me eventually #i wanna cry. i finally feel like i'm being taken seriously and cared for. and i'm not BETTER yet (might never be the same as i was pre-op) #but i actually feel optimistic for the first time in over a year that i won't just have to deal with this agonizing pain on my own forever #i might actually see enough improvement that i can start to get back to living my life instead of just surviving it #money is tighter than it's been since i got laid off during early pandemic and that's stressing me out #but i promised myself that i would put my health first in 2024 and that means only working the bare minimum needed to pay my bills for now #genuinely i so fucking needed a break. i felt like i was trying to swim through a meat grinder last year #and it wasn't until i ended up in the ER about it that i finally was able to take my own pain seriously enough #to put my foot down & make some necessary changes that are now letting me focus on Getting Well With Myself at last #in hindsight it's like. really freaking me out how thoroughly i was able to compartmentalize & dissociate from how miserable i was #bc nobody who had the ability to help me would take me seriously & my shitty boss was like. extremely textbook emotionally abusive #and on one hand that was a survival mechanism that kept me on my feet during one of the worst times of my life. so props to myself there #but it was also very maladaptive how long & unnecessarily it went on before i snapped out of it & escalated things for my own safety #it was the same helpless frustration i often felt as a kid of like 'well nobody is on my side but me so i gotta suck it up & help myself' #and i think the family trauma shit that was going on last year definitely contributed to that. idk sense of doubling across time? #and things had to get Extremely Bad before they were bad enough for me to realize that although i felt like it #i am no longer an isolated & parentified island of a child who is beholden to the whims of ignorant & indifferent adults #i actually can and should take action to advocate for myself bc i am an adult and i CAN now change my circumstances as needed #instead of just enduring them as if i'm stuck there with no agency or chance to change things #and i have a really solid support system who helped me feel like it was possible to stand up for myself to get the help i desperately need #chronic blogging

[vampcaprisun]

recovering from top surgery and starting scar care has really given me a new appreciation for how fucked up astarion’s back must be from those scars. like excuse me sir get over here and let me give you a massage bc i KNOW that skin doesn’t move the way it should anymore

#‘but scarification is different from deep surgical scars’ well yeah but do you think cazador was being careful not to cut too deep #something tells me he wasn’t. if anything he probably cut deeper than he needed to on purpose #like he tortured them for fun i feel like it wouldn’t be beyond him to make it as painful and difficult to heal as possible #not to mention he needed the scars to be there and the deeper you go the more likely they are to stay prominent #listen i just fear for his range of motion #whatever the state of that skin is i feel like it cannot possibly be comfortable #astarion #astarion ancunin #bg3 #baldur’s gate 3

What are Personal Care Services?

The term "personal care" is used to set itself apart from other categories of senior care services, such as homemaker services, which are intended to assist seniors with home maintenance, and companion care, which is concentrated on the emotional and mental health of seniors, and medical care, which deals directly with medical procedures and medications.

Services aimed at assisting elders and other people who require assistance with daily tasks are referred to as personal care services. We, who are fully able-bodied, take these regular tasks for granted. These are private pursuits. such as taking a shower, getting dressed, moving about, going to the bathroom, eating, and walking.

Things Included in Nursing Services

In the beginning, nursing was both an art and a career, and it is still seen as a caring profession. Nursing care is now regarded as a scientific profession and is defined as the provision of patient care about nursing needs. With the quantitative and qualitative dimensions of medical sciences continuously expanding, nursing care and its management services are becoming more and more complex.

The nursing service is a component of the overall health organization that works to meet the nursing needs of the community and patients. The nurse provides a comprehensive program of patient care at the hospital in collaboration with members of allied disciplines including dietetics, medical social service, pharmacy, etc. in nursing services.

What is Provided by Family Caregiver Relief?

The program for family members who look after a relative takes care of their particular needs. Among the services on offer are:

·        Make arrangements for temporary in-home or out-of-home care, such as respite care, so that you can have some alone time to take care of other obligations or just to rest and recharge

·        giving you and other family members who look after weak, elderly people training. Overall, they provide eldercare and senior home support.

What are surgical care services?

With their help, you may give a family member who has undergone surgery the greatest care at home. Surgical care service makes sure that your loved one heals more quickly and at home with family. Together with assuring assistance with activities of daily living and nursing care, our team will take care of all patient caregiving responsibilities.

To achieve a quicker recovery and lower cost, our post-surgery care service was created in conjunction with renowned hospitals and surgeons. Our at-home post-operative nursing care will vary depending on the type of surgery, the patient's health, and medical history.

We always answer the phone [phone] or E-mail - [email protected].

[loveoaths]

went to the dentist yesterday for a simple cleaning. staff was masked (surgical masks, so not very masked, but it was something) but i noticed my hygienist sounded kind of congested/was leaving the room to cough halfway into my cleaning. woke up today feeling like shit + full of weird vibrating sensations like i was the first time i had covid three years — which i have successfully dodged for three! years! — and if that office gave my immunocompromised ass covid i am going to be LIVID.

#the anger is masking the fear of worsened long Covid + having to call my care team and admit myself to the hospital for IV shit but #god i am so fucking mad #THIS is what that shitty ‘let the vulnerable tend to themselves’ rhetoric got us #i DID tend to myself. i DID protect myself! for four years! with no fucking help from the government + 99% of the population! #and yet i got sick! getting healthcare! after doing everything right! because someone decided to go to work sick #because they’ve been told that’s fine and covid isn’t a big deal #and surgical masks are fine over n95s despite BEING A DENTIST IN PEOPLE’S MOUTHS ALL DAY #it’s maddening and infuriating and disheartening and terrifying and if my long Covid gets worse (or something Worse happens god forbid) i am #going to become a maelstrom of #fury heretofore unseen #right after i finish vomiting for 14 days #walkie talkie.

I honestly expected being ugly in the LSD trip that transed me to give me more of a mental health advantage in what I knew was about to be a shitshow bad enough I already gave up once. unfortunately I apparently am the wrong kind of ugly

#i got a couple freebies out of it like surgical scars and not caring if i get bald #it did not make me feel better about having the voice and physique of a eunuch. somehow i got LESS greebled

[horrid-mothlegs]

I LOVE when artists show off a character's personality through their top surgery scars. Yes please make them into funky shapes that match the character design I love you

#there's also something to be said about different top surgery techniques in art #cause the surgical technique a character chooses can tell you a lot about them and their priorities i think #do they care more about aesthetics? sensation? total flatness? i need to know #there's just so many ways you can express stuff through top surgery scars #and it's so cool
