Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Just a thought -- could she be reacting to the dye or something else in the prep?
(I know somebody whose uncles -- multiple -- died from an allergic reaction to a medical dye that they didn't catch until the second autopsy. She subsequently got tested for that allergy and yes, it's some kind of weird genetic thing that will have to be avoided in any kind of medical test she has in the future.)
Oh dear, Burrell! Scary. I hope they figure something out.
Timelies all!
Yikes, Burrell, that is scary.
Today I start cleaning All The Things in preparation for my folks visit this weekend. Figuring out what to do with them will be interesting since we have to take into account a) the shutdown and b) my mom's mobility problems.
Hoping for no more scares, Burrell.
Work is reassuring us we're good well into November. Oh and by the way, don't forget annual enrollment!
...which makes me wonder, if you are on furlough and forbidden to work, how the fuck does that work? I mean, I know technically it is possible, but if your HR is also on furlough....
I hope they can make the treatment work without further adverse reactions, Burrell.
Huh, I had an aunt who died from a dye reaction about 30 years ago. I don't know if anyone else has had those tests, but it's something to mention if it comes up.
Something similar happened to my Great Aunt.
Burrell, that's actually not an uncommon reaction (though it sounds a little more hard core if the stuff hadnt really started yet). Often they pre-medicate with Benadryl and some other stuff, if needed for that kind of reaction.
Wow. NYPD has identified Baby Hope. She was a little girl who was found dead, stuffed in a cooler, in 1991, and there had been pretty much no leads. The police tried putting up fliers again this summer, to see if it would jog someone's memory about something, and a woman came forward and said, basically, that she had talked to this other woman several years ago, and the other woman had mentioned that her younger sister had been killed when they were kids, and the story seemed kind of weird at the time, but now that she saw the posters, she realized that some of the details matched up with that little girl. So the police looked into it, and tested DNA, and she was right. They haven't released her name yet -- still questioning her family, and the police are pretty sure that no one will say anything if their name gets released to the press -- but still. I remember seeing that case on the news when I was a kid. [link]
