Lesson Learned: Pain Scale | Torreybird

https://blog.torreybird.com/2014/02/06/lesson-learned-pain-scale

Torrey Podmajersky sidles up and tells the truth. Lesson Learned: Pain Scale. I didn’t want to come to the emergency department. My primary care doctor told me to go after he poked my belly, gave me the most pitying look I’ve ever seen, and he said he’d call the hospital to request an emergency a CT scan. But at the hospital emergency department, the triage nurse is the gatekeeper of care. My temperature is only slightly elevated. I have no spurting blood, no disfigured limbs or torn flesh.

The Mysterious Traveler Sets Out: 2013 in Review

http://themysterioustraveler.blogspot.com/2013/12/2013-in-review.html

The Mysterious Traveler Sets Out. Making visible what, without me, might perhaps be unseen. Sunday, December 29, 2013. 2013 What an awful year. I don't know if we're feeling "survivor guilt" or merely survivor exhaustion, but 2013 was a bad year for people and animals around us. Our elderly adopted cat Quigley died of bladder cancer; our beloved cat Mabel was diagnosed with large-cell lymphoma at the beginning of the year and in September she was gone. Her passing left a huge hole in the household. For t...

I Googled "Purell reactions" and discovered there are a few other people who have reported experiencing extreme drowsiness, lethargy, and lack of appetite as a result of using Purell. Who'd have imagined it? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://themysterioustraveler.blogspot.com/2013/06/mabels-last-summer.html

The Mysterious Traveler Sets Out. Making visible what, without me, might perhaps be unseen. Monday, June 17, 2013. One Monday in early February. Mabel, our little black Bombay cat, collapsed. I thought she had an abscess, and asked Tom (who's a massage therapist) to feel for a lump. He didn't find anything serious, but we made a vet appointment for the next day. This was in mid-February. Mabel responds exceptionally well to chemo. She doesn't mind the treatments — even the series of subcutaneou...Mabel h...

The Mysterious Traveler Sets Out. Making visible what, without me, might perhaps be unseen. Sunday, October 02, 2005. How to recondition a leather couch. 10 years ago I purchased a semi-custom high-end leather couch. It has some of the thickest leather you can buy, and the back cushions are filled with down. With its combination of thick hide, and dark coffee leather, I figured it might - just might - survive in our cat-infested household. I did some research online and got advice and supplies from the l...

The Mysterious Traveler Sets Out. Making visible what, without me, might perhaps be unseen. Thursday, August 02, 2012. Smokey loses a friend. An update on Smokey, who was my cat 10 years ago but has since chosen to live with a succession of elderly neighbors. I got an email today from the son of Emilia, Smokey's current owner. Emilia died yesterday. She had dementia, and her son had moved in to take care of her about a year and a half ago. Shortly after the son moved in, Smokey was allowed in. How to rec...
