When I was little, I used to get serious sinus and chest infections (of various styles) at least twice a year. It seemed to wear off as I got older, but there's a chance that the sinusitis is related to the unknown infection on my left ankle that made my life a living hell for two years - an unknown autoimmune disorder that causes localized white blood cells to join the other side and overthrow my otherwise functional systems. The doctors couldn't pinpoint any known disorder, so eventually they just said, "Well, be careful."
It seems like a silly thing to have typed up now that I've done it, but basically the idea of untreatable infections of any kind is completely horrifying.

LS: That sucks
Yeah, no aging in the conventional sense but a highly underdeveloped brain.
Nature disapproves!
yeah i think i disapprove with letting that abomination unto the god-emperor exist too
No shit. for around two years my knees and ankles would swell up and hurt like a motherfucker. I figured it might be gout or rheumatoid arthritis, and I went to the doctor for it. Some blood tests later they find out its neither, and the doctor says, "Okay, if you get one of those acute flare ups again, call me right away so I can get a sample."
They haven't acted up since.
Sixteen years spent raising a baby.
Oh my gosh, either way.
Neville, all I am saying is, guard your precious, precious tonsils!

I suppose she's not immune to the age related causes of death. Metabolism is still wrecking her body, even if at a slower rate.
She's really getting the worst of both worlds.
Unless you count someone wiping your ass for your entire life a big plus.
wait
of course!
Underdeveloped because she's still essentially a toddler, though. It's blowing my mind.

When she's 70, she should be ready for kindergarten.
She'll be collecting social security, too.
Lucky bitch.

damn
is it cocoa pufffs or
halfway through this post i realized i had a bunch of string cheese in my back pocket i had forgotten about.
for a snack
The best cheese
It's just a wonderful stringy surprise
Worst, most frightening experience of my life, and not just because I was worried to death about her ending up paralyzed or something
ER waiting rooms are pits of misery and death
diagnosis: anxiety for sure this time, got a prescription for atavine
so both times i went to the hospital were because of panic attacks it seems, had the beginnings of one on the way back to home after the 2nd hospital visit but im fighting it off pretty well so far
gonna stop typing cause this is making the attack a little harder to fight
plus i am actually a doctor (no im not)
again i don't know if that's you, but I'm just using it as an example of why it's important to try to accept it.
and I just want to add, you can't just hope it doesn't happen. the best way to deal with panic attacks is to go out and do things. don't get in over your head, but constantly push those walls. 8 years ago I wouldn't leave my room, and now I can bus all the way to the other end of the city! it's not going to magically go away, but you have to learn to control what you can.
Man I've been though that (the crushing of your vertabrae). It is fucking terrifying when you are 16.
collpasing all the time
did you know the Good Samaritan law doesnt apply to EMTs
absolutely. and like lying down isn't enough? like there's no floor under you?
i was just wondering cause i get htis feeling in my head and i freak out and am like "oh god wmy head what is it a blood cot in my brain oh god" and you know it starts a chain reaction and the symptoms get worse
you telling me its just part of the attack really helps tho thanks
once it's over you know.
Don't think it's the end of the world
When I was about a year younger than you I lost hearing in one ear and was told if water got in there it could cause an infection bloom and kill me.
It just becomes same ol' after a while. It sucks, but you'll live
Quick, talk about politics!
it'll calm him down
first thing in the morning getting that perscription filled
quick
