Thank you all. Right now everything is frankly boring because it is the weekend and they can’t really let me go home until the DVT resolves and the know I won’t have a pulmonary embolism that will kill me. The DVT is pretty bad, so blood thinners aren’t really working yet
Don't I get a cookie?

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Off, Sophia, that's a lot! I'm glad you're getting care.
I am looking forward to being able to get shots because I have a job! It will require going through a teacher training program (even though I have an MEd and have no desire to be a classroom teacher again), and we'll have to figure out student teaching hours, but it's a union gig with insurance, so yay!
My mom has been big enough into Pilates that she ended up with a reformer in the basement. I think dad's been self-rehabbing from his tick-induced partial paraplegia (yes, he is a walking Mad Lib, why do you ask?) as well

Thank you. I tried watching PBS and it was a Lydia’s Kitchen and an America’s test kitchen that I remember from watching probably at least 20 years ago.

Oh Sophia, good luck!! I hope the blood thinners kick in soon (but not so much that your blood is TOO thin either!)

Sophia, I’m so glad you went to the hospital! May the blood thinners kick in soon.

Oooh, one of my personal favorite movies God Help the Girl: [link]
It's an indie musical by the band Belle and Sebastian. Imagine a Wes Anderson musical.

Sophia, holy crap.

Carole Lombard's only Technicolor movie. Also, my favorite of that era.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Oh my gosh, Sophia! Fingers crossed that treatment is effective in both the short and long terms.
