Chilling out in nuclear medicine today doing prep for my PET. Dinking barium on an empty stomach and it is ✨not happy✨lol

Stop telling me “Everything’s gonna be all right” when every single time I get pulled back together, I get kicked back down.

I know I did this to myself, but it sucks when you don’t feel good and live in an ingredients house. Somebody come make me dinner.

Would it really be too much for my insulin pump supplier, if supplies are scheduled to go out in a Sunday, to ship my supplies on a Friday instead? 🙄

I just saw someone say “Your confidence is standing, but your knowledge is not” to a complete bozo and I’m gonna hafta add that to my repertoire

Still trying to wrap my brain around the fact that I didn’t just lose my spleen, I lost my spleen to cancer.

I am B E G G I N G graphic designers to open a fucking book

I just saw someone say that writing humor is worse than writing smut because of the crippling worry that readers won’t find it funny, and as a humor writer I just wanna say, who gives a fuck?

GUYS I HAVE PLATELETS AGAIN!!! 🥳

So cancer update: It’s definitely going to be treated, the question is how. Onc I saw is concerned about starting me on chemo due to the immune deficiency, but they’ve consulted with an onc with experience in immune deficiency lymphoma for further advice.

Singing the Phineas and Ferb theme to keep from crying 🥲

I see oncology on Thursday. If you wanna help a girl out… gofund.me/d3424e16

Drinking coffee at 8pm just to feel something

Ugh The Kid’s™️ making me watch the Uncle Grandpa episode of Steven Universe 😒

Indeed: If you have experience with electrical systems and are looking to transition… Me, a biologist who *barely* passed E&M:

The Kid™️: I have a question, do Pokemon say their names, or are they named after the noises they make? Me:

Oof thank god for the school newsletter because I forgot there’s no school tomorrow 😂😭

Idk who needs to hear this, but there are no rules in art.

Rent is due in two weeks, and my time is tied up with mass doctor appts to find out if I have cancer and need chemo. I need $2000 to keep everything running this month. Please help. #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest #PleaseShare #RentHelp gofund.me/184474c3

Happy Valentine’s Day my loves 🥰

HELL YES. Great tip for health care providers.

I get far more engagement on TikTok than I do Insta, but holy shit the music selection on TikTok is SO bad

This is how our snow day is going.

The Kid™️ and I have very different tastes when it comes to Rice Krispies treats so I always have to make two batches 😂 (Repost because I forgot the alt text)

So far I have received alerts from: - The middle school (that TK™️ doesn’t attend yet 😂) x2 - The elementary school x2 - Email x2 - 1 msg on ParentSquare from the district superintendent - 1 from the principal - 1 phone call (with VM) They *really* wanna make sure we know tomorrow is a snow day 😂

Hematology referral is in, just gotta wait for them to decide who it is I need to see 😭

Why yes, I do sit and count how many weapons Lt. Hawkeye pulls out. You mean you don’t? #FullmetalAlchemist

Found my people #ElderScrolls #WeKnow

Don’t mind me, I’m just gonna spiral for a bit 😭

Just got told to consult with the hematologist who ordered my splenectomy re. the cancer finding. I don’t have a hematologist. I don’t even know who ordered the surgery, there was like seventeen hundred different specialists involved in that decision…none of them a hematologist. 😂😭

My goal in life is to make enough money that I can pay someone else to do my laundry

I wonder if Indeed understands that the job market is such that no one will hire someone looking to “apply your skills to a different field.” Why would they hire someone they need to train when there’s a thousand applicants with a relevant degree and experience?

Fun fact, a lot of that “admin” pays for things like the electric, and water, and heat, and the secretaries, and the business managers, and we all know that the university presidents and med school deans aren’t going to be taking any pay cuts…

When your immune deficiency causes both type 1 diabetes and cancer because your shitty body loves irony. So fucking tired.
