Oh, you're an ICU nurse! Right on! I'm a paramedic in Toronto and I understand your stubbornness about submitting yourself to the "patient" side of things (although I have Crohn's disease and was hospitalized for 6 days a couple months back), but the whole time you were telling your story I was like, "GET YOURSELF TO THE HOSPITAL!!" I'm so glad it all worked out, though. 😅

Hello fellow Canadian! I currently am studying for the NCLEX. I wish you well with your Crohn's.

@@HummingbirdG6843 Hello, neighbour! 😀I wish you all the best with your exam! I've always said that nurses and school teachers are the true unsung heroes of our society, and we ought to swap their wages with what we pay professional athletes and Hollywood actors. (The slightly longer version of my story is that, after 16 years of working on ambulances, I became permanently disabled as a result of physical health problems related to the Crohn's and mental health problems caused by PTSD. There have been many nurses who have made a positive difference in just my own life even though they were being overworked and underpaid.) I'm sure you'll go on to do great things in life, and I hope you know you're appreciated even at times that it doesn't feel like it!

I had a severe case of food poisoning earlier this year that left me feeling like I was dying. It was the worst headache and nausea I’ve ever experienced, and it lasted for days. I ended up in the ER. It seems like food poisoning is worse than it used to be. I can’t imagine going through that in a foreign country-I feel for you.

when you mentioned you were like a cat and on your fifth life, it made me think of a book I just read that you may like! Especially as an animal lover 😊 It's a cute tiny little book too. It's called The Ghost Cat by Alex Howard. It's set in Scotland and it's about a kitty cat born in 1887, and we follow him (yes he's the main character!) through his 9 lives over a 120 year span. I don't want to say more than that but just know that it is adorable and sweet, at times heartbreaking but endearing, and also humorous. I mean.. you get to be inside a cat's head and it's everything you think it would be 😹 I read it from the library and gave it 5🌟 .. an all-time favorite so I'm going to purchase a copy for my collection and annotate it.

Cause I want to vlog it so badly, but on the same token I need to have the time and energy to do so. loved the vlog, felt like we just spent an entire month together 💀

Oof your story reminded me of time when I was flying home from London and feeling very very unwell. It later turned out to be a stomach inflammation. I have a pretty severe anxiety and a HUGE nausea anxiety as I've been struggling with it quite often, and I was really ready to just stay in London and figure something out or die. The fact that there's no escape in the middle of the flight plus there's times when you need to sit down and can't go to the toilet is so scary in these situations. I'm glad you've made it, and I really admire you, I'd probably get home and cry for a month. 🫣

So glad WoK was a 5 star for you after all this time! 🙌

First of all, so glad you made it safely and were also able to have a great time! I also wanted to say, you passed over a Janny Wurts book in that book nook - you might really like her stuff (she's an OG fantasy writer). Pocari Sweat was actually invented to save lives from the BRUTAL Japanese summers that cause quick and severe dehydration - it was excellent that he picked that out of everything.

As someone who can't do MRIS with out freaking out, I have to get knocked out for it, and that was the last time I felt really yuck. Then my sister gave the three of us covid in the summer.
