Monday, 02/13 will be 8 years since my dad passed of flu complications leading to septic shock. I’m also newly concussed for the first time since 4/2021. It’s going to be a long week of appts and grief. but as one of my new providers wrote me this week, it’s OK if I’m not OK.

Cubone is a great green shiny

My spinal doctor is concerned my TBI woke up an autoimmune disease that was dormant. The GI was a dead end, so he’s asking my PCP to refer me to a rheumatologis. He was happy to hear that unlike the PCP that could have prevented my TBI, this PCP listens to patients and Drs.

i asked #Googlehome to play #pandora. She glitched and said to try again. I asked if she was broken. She said playing pandora and the song starts with “I like that you’re broken, broken like me…” 😳😳😳 Google has jokes.

Check on your #autoimmune friends. We walk around with our bodies constantly betraying us, but will put a smile on our face and say everything is fine. #spoonie #tbi

My best friend left the country. She better come back. But also hope she’s having fun.

Peaches are my favorite fruit. Love them. My BP drops when I get them. Ever since my head injury, my body has been rebelling against me. I haven’t been on BP medication for over a year and it still gets too low. Thankfully I have a concerned PCP.

I have been getting the brown sugar cinnamon iced coffees and cold foam at Dunkin. It’s over 90 today so I went back to the coconut refreshers. Walked in and I hear “changing up the drink again, Jessica?” 😂😂😂

I walked 22,222 steps today and got the Minions: Kevin badge with Fitbit! https://t.co/IKp9myuQfK #Fitstats my poor date today was walking with me for the first part and he’s st home, sore. 😂😂😂

Max eyeing @StackUpRex and Cubone pretending to not notice anything.

The few months my dad got to know Max, he absolutely loved this cat. Max would always greet him and play with him. My dad would be amazed at how big Max grew to be. Father’s Day isn’t a happy day for me.

I woke up this morning to find Lizzo using ableist slurs in her song "Grrrls". DO BETTER @lizzo take the song down take the slur out. LISTEN TO DISABLED PEOPLE. #dobetter #ableism #slur #Disability

Got my COVID test and pre registered for my two procedures for Friday afternoon. My dermatologist is hoping this will give answers to why my body is rebelling against me. And of course I can count on @PerkyDaisy23 for being an ass when I was reminded I was getting two procedures

I realize it’s easier to pretend the pandemic is over or your case of COVID was no big deal-I’m also sure no one will plsy this tiktok because living in a false utopia feels safer- but he is a verified scientist. https://t.co/tGx3sZTer2

I walked 12,345 steps yesterday and got the Minions: Stuart badge with Fitbit! https://t.co/IKp9myuQfK #Fitstats

Woman from my second Dunkin said I’ve been too much of a stranger. I said yeah- I had COVID and wasn’t allowed to fulfill my addiction.

Had my first urgent BPPV treatment. Doctor office works fast. Yup, this is another thing my old PCP dismissed when I went to her with dizziness and ear crackling. The guy tested me and saw my eyes sporadically moving. Almost vomited on him. If your PCP doesn’t listen, fire them!

Doctor thinks I may have Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo by my symptoms. Of course getting COVID complicated things. She pushed to get me an urgent physical therapy appt for Friday. I asked my old PCP about BPPV and she dismissed me. Some people shouldn’t be doctors.
