How Chat Indirectly Saved Suisei's Dad From His Liver Problems

[@osekkai-san]

Sorry, I was mistaken at 1:22, I think her dad said Lady Banks' Rose instead of Magnolia

GGT going down from 600 to 80 is remarkable. That's basically coming back from the brink of liver failure.

[@MrNanukes]

What’s GGT?

[@Saintjohn2711]

SGPT?

[@Geth-Who]

@@MrNanukes Gamma-glutamyl Transferase. It's a liver-focused enzyme, if the liver's in trouble it leaks into the bloodstream in greater amounts than you'd normally find it. So they test the blood for it, and the amount they find indicates how bad off your liver is.

[@chrisvighagen]

@@MrNanukes “A gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) test measures the amount of GGT in the blood. GGT is an enzyme found throughout the body, but it is mostly found in the liver. When the liver is damaged, GGT may leak into the bloodstream. High levels of GGT in the blood may be a sign of liver disease or damage to the bile ducts. “ - MedlinePlus It is one of a series of tests to diagnose liver damage. Normal range is around 0 to 30 so 80 is still high, but much much better than 600. It just tells you that there is an issue with liver or the bile/gallbladder, other tests tell you which one.

[@HeadOfBucket]

@@MrNanukes It's an enzyme that can leak into the blood if your liver is damaged. Normal results are 8-38, so while 80 isn't really good, it's a damn sight better than 600. I'm surprised he lived through that.

From heading to Tokyo with nothing but a dream, to paying for house renovations and her father's health and new hobby. She's really come a long way. From diamond in the rough to stellar comet, Suisei must shine brightest in her family's eyes, out of everyone that supports and cheers her on.

Huh, guess that certainly explains why Suisei doesn't drink.

[@time_to_teaparty]

Hololive saves lifes. When you think about it how many lifes got improved by hololive its crazy. Suisei moving to Tokyo and running out of money just to get picked up hololive to become such a legend. Now because of that Suisei managed to save her father by changing his whole life. I can't imagine what a positive effect it must has been on her whole family that her dad doesn't drink this extremely anymore. Makes me smile that this is such a happy end.

[@Bocchidachi]

I was in a really dark place 5-ish years ago and I'm sure i don't need to explain what that means. From clips of a war criminal rabbit to the soothing drawing streams of a certain priestess, i can remember vividly now how Hololive was the beginning of the regression of my depression. Then, out of nowhere, where i just happened to be on lunch, just happened to be during an Ina stream, who just happened to draw something to make me want to pop my super chat cherry, all within this 30 minute break from life, Ina said something along the lines of "...you should help yourself before you start sending Supa's to me..." (I'm paraphrasing, its been a while). Its such a simple and obvious way of thinking. Anyone could have said this, but Ina said it exactly when i needed to hear it because even though to truly help yourself out of that dark mindset is easier said than done, the simple philosophy behind that phrase has kept me going every time i felt like breaking or wanting to give up. Why not try a little more before giving it all up? Before sending a Supa, can you keep up with rent? How about your food budget? Anything you can do for your parents? What can you do to make it happen? You should start working out, Maybe you can Adopt that kitten that's been Abandoned near your house, etc. All this time, I've yet to send a Super chat to any Holomem, but id like to think that Hololive really did save me because today i currently run two businesses with one of them practically becoming self sufficient (Laundromat) and the other doing well enough to move onto a bigger space (Restaurant). Today, I'm now busier than ever, too busy to keep up with live streams of anyone, especially the live streams of my now Kami Oshi, Ina. I'd have to plan for cover like I'm trying to go on vacation just to catch a Live Birthday stream for a few hours haha. To say Hololive saved my life is an understatement. Idk where this life would have been without those exact small series of events just happening to line up with that singular moment that opened my eyes to an entire world view that changed my life for the better. I'm happier than ever, and if/when my worries are gone or miniscule, I'll finally send that Super Chat to those who lead me here, granted I'm confident enough to have joined a Membership for almost a year now 😊

Suisei really lived a cinderella story, that part about her dad's chronic alcohol poisoning is frightening. So happy to hear she managed to help her father improve, the man likely just gained 10 years on his life expectancy.

[@Astral52_]

This was motivation to get out of there and improve her life. I know what she felt. Different circumstances, but I've felt that drive, too.

[@nrvnqsr4001]

Man, didn't expect her to drop something like this so casually. The "BGM" part... No kid should ever be able to say something like that about their parent. And here I thought her life story couldn't be tougher. I'm just happy it's a thing of the past.

[@khoonkitlim5963]

This is so relatable had a dad who bought so many flowers and having mom complained about his collections to the point he had to built a makeshift flower racks so that there's enough space for three cars to park into the front (gated) yard that's just barely fits in those said three cars during the CNYs. Now after he passed away, she takes his place looking after those flowers. Sui-chan is lucky to have her dad around still collecting the flowers and having his wife scolding him.

magnolia arch? that would be extremely difficult, they're very picky flowers

[@bossboard22]

They are ? Do they need extra sunlight or more water ?

[@papacharlie-niner148]

I was surprised by that as well. Maybe it was actually a wisteria arch, which is a lot easier to grow and I believe is common in Japan, but Suisei doesn't know from flowers and called it by whatever came to mind.

[@osekkai-san]

After reading the comments, Magnolia was probably the wrong flower... I think she was saying Lady Banks' Rose

Physical activity in the open air that he enjoys and distracts him from his addictions. Pretty much the best thing he could have done in that situation. Just gotta watch out for his joints now, because extended work that close to the ground can be pretty straining.

[@Sergei_WHY]

Glad her dad's doing better, alcoholism is a real pain in the ass (and the liver, in a literal sense, and every other organ too). And gardening is a wonderful hobby. Sometimes my plants keep me from drinking, for real. Though, at times, I stress over there being too little room and sun on my windowsills, and that makes me want to crack open a cold one...

[@stroodlepup]

Can we ask suipapa to have her finally eat veggies tho hahaha

[@DeadBeatDex]

I'm about 98% sure her dad has alcoholism(literally needs alcohol to get through the day) just based on the little story she told about her dad getting black-out drunk every night. The gardening was most likely a way to keep himself focused and give him a reason not to drink till he blacks out. It's great that his health has recovered, but I think it'd be a good idea for him to see a therapist about it or at least go to AA. Most if not all addictions stem from some kind of trauma.

I was about to comment that suddenly stopping drinking and smoking can actually kill you faster. Good thing Sui-chan's dad cuts back the alcohol and tobacco and replacing it with other recreational activities until he can actually stop. That's the proper way to end the addiction.
