The most recent what the severe and sudden blood pressure drop during labor for my two-month-old son. You never want to hear a nurse call people into the room while saying the word “emergency,” especially when you are barely able to focus enough to hear anything at all.
Pregnancy and L&D is so dangerous. Not enough people give it the weight it deserves.
Christian here, but I’ve gotta hand it to you guys: You have fantastic food and music (and seriously know how to party, from what I’ve heard). I wouldn’t want to live anywhere that didn’t have the yumminess you brought to the literal table. Beyond that, your traditions surrounding mourning are really beautiful. I love that you prioritize taking the time to sit with the loss of your loved one and really give it the weight it deserves. The continual building of resting places is another one - what a great way to honor those who have passed before us!
L’shana tova, friend! I hope you have a great 5784. :)
Just one of them is too many. Those things are freaking terrifying.
Because they’re all Rambo. Didn’t you know that?
It’s 2am here and I just did exactly the same thing with rif. Gonna take some getting used to…
It’s about perspective, I think. A 19-year-old is technically a young adult, but is a “grown up” to a small child and a kid to an older adult. I feel like that 18-early 20s-ish range is some weird gray area that seriously depends on maturity level. I’ve met some very wise people in that age range who are far more adult than literal adults I’ve known, but I’ve also met some very, very immature straight-up children in that age range as well.
Then again, maybe that’s all ages? Hmm…
Editing to add: This is my first comment on here. I can see myself settling in and getting comfortable in this new space. I’m happy to have possibly found a new home. I’ll miss rif though.
Yeah, I’ve got my two now. I’m done.
