It really sucks how trash cats’ kidneys are. Our second cat was diagnosed with stage 2 kidney disease today. Our other cat was dxed about 6 months ago. 😭

Having a hard time dealing with the fact that I have to go back to Philly to get hospitalized again if I want to feel better. Was just there in June but it didn’t work as it had before.

During today's Congressional Call-In Day, ask your U.S. Representatives to support the HEADACHE Act. The #HEADACHEAct would establish a coordinated federal strategy to help address gaps in headache and migraine research, care, professional education, and awareness. 1/2

Use the PMC interactive map to track localized data. This week, we added the line graph and a new shortcut (pmc19.com/map). It works best on a computer or large tablet. If #SaltingTheVibes, send screenshots to others showing their county. 😷👍 THREAD 🧵(4/4)

A photograph taken in a cemetery shows a man lying flat on his back in the grass directly in front of a gravestone, as if testing the spot. A white SUV is parked on the paved path behind him, and additional gravestones are scattered across the background among trees. The on‑image text at the bottom reads exactly: “My dad... ‘trying out the plot he just purchased.’”

Somehow I'm missing a part to my Aerogarden Harvest. It isn't needed to run the machine but handy to keep algae from growing (the water cover). Do I know anyone with a 3D printer? None of the libraries near me have one.

Does anyone have experience with the Purple Pillow (especially the Harmony)? I am desperate and have tried 100000 pillows and spent 100000 dollars on them. I heard good things for this one for people like me with cervical stenosis. #MigraineChat #ChronicIllness

You repeatedly give someone exercises to help gain strength (aka independence) and prevent falls. Ones that take 5 min a day. They roll their eyes at you, change the subject. They fall, break 4 ribs and are shocked someone has to stay with them for a month because they are frail.

Finally got access to my smell test results (for Parkinson’s research—I don’t have Parkinson’s). 86% of women my age smell better than me! I knew I couldn’t smell stuff but didn’t realize my sniffer was that impaired. (Mine is a symptom of autonomic dysfunction.)
