Level 1 i’m glad you got the help you need but this is just sad. level 2 Comment removed by moderator 2 months ago ( More than 1 child) level 2 Dunno, works fine in countries which have proper healthcare level 1 Breaking Bad set in the UK wouldn't have got past the pilot episode. level 1 Mate this boils my piss. I’m a type 1 diabetic in the U. K and I have no issues due to the NHS. Curious how much can you get via your insurance level 2 My insurance covers one vial of short acting and one of long acting a month. I need three of each though. I'm pretty underweight from starving myself and rationing it and I've had DKA 5 times this year alone. It's getting really bad here. level 1 Hey bro I'm pretty new to actually posting on reddit. Not sure how to private message you But I have been type 1 for 35 years. I have reserves of insulin. Lemme know if you need anything I'll send you some. Mostly vials of apidra and humalog flex pen but I'll give you what you need. I just looked at your, sorry for calling you bro. level 2 I don't mind being called "bro"; it's OK though. I have what I need for now. Thank you so much. level 1 Meanwhile on my Spotify:"This is America.. " level 1 The healthcare system is just............ 🤬 level 1 Send me a direct message with your address and I'll mail you some basal insulin... i'm a type 1 who has been in your exact spot and needed the kindness of other level 1 This is something that should never have to happen. Healthcare needs to be free or at worst extremely affordable at point of service. Nothing should be close to 3 figures. In the UK A prescription costs £9 per item, but a PPC costs: £29. 10 for 3 months. £104 for 12 months. So in the UK those donations would've covered you for 3 years with change... level 2 My father was just in the hospital for 2 weeks during the holiday and they were charging $30, 000 a day for his room. He’s lucky enough to be on Medicare so it’s only 5k a year but still insane to think about. level 1 I’m so sorry you even have to deal with this. It makes me sooo angry. This is why we need Bernie Sanders in office. He’s fighting to have healthcare for all, so that everyone has access to free healthcare whether that’s to pay for insulin or bringing a new life into the world. Good luck to you. level 1 Comment removed by moderator 2 months ago ( 1 child) level 1 We need to bust up the patent monopolies that are price gouging insulin. The FDA never approves biosimilar medicine (like insulin) the way they do pills. If there was an alternative /competition the price would fall like it did with Epi-pens level 1 American health care(not) scares me. level 1 Given your life and livelihood are at stake, I would highly recommend you look for citizenship in a country where you can get insulin for $4. 50.

Was dreaming big to see Defina from the Originals... such beauty. Had a guy on my high-school football team that was mentially disabled he had more heart than all of us but he would do anything to be cool so one day I walked in the locker room and he was surrounded by alot of the cool guys on the team and they had him hitting his head on a brick wall to the point it was bleeding he just wanted to fit in and would do anything so I walked over and shoved people out of the way and stopped him and had a talk telling him don't let people talk you in to doing things that will harm you they're not your friends. From that day forward if I seen him in the halls he would run up to me and hug me and tell me he loved me if we was at practice or at games if I was not on the feild he was by my side he even got to play in a few games that was the happiest person I have ever known.
Remy: please let this be a normal quest Everyone else: with the Unexpectables, NO WAY. Low budget bad acting bad directing bad movie just bad 😭😭😭 I want my time back 😞 WTF bruce Willis 👀. Oh Gemini Man this should've been you. In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “The Kindness of Strangers. ” When was the last time a stranger did something particularly kind, generous, or selfless for you? Tell us what happened! Many times as I commute to work, I, like so many other commuters, eye contact is avoided and never made. Seated across from me and one seat ahead, I noticed a young woman who appeared uncomfortable and looked unusual. She appeared to be a man dressed as a woman, as her looks drew the attention of other commuters. When my stop was announced, I stood up, and immediately, the passenger behind me tapped my shoulder. The older gentleman in his seventies handed me my wallet that had fallen out of my rear pocket. I was overwhelmed and delighted for his act of kindness. I shook his hand while repeatedly, thanking you for his honesty. He motioned for me to lean in closer as he whispered in my ear while pointing in the direction of the young woman I noticed earlier. The older man said she was his 39-year-old son dressed as a woman. He was following his son around as part of a bet his son lost betting on the Super-Bowl. The son was to dress as a woman and ride the morning commuter train for two hours. I laughed out loud, and the father asked me as I exited the train to ask his son for her number. I agreed and when I walked towards his son to ask for her number, she had a sorrowful scowl on her face and turned away. I exited the train and laughed all the way to work. The Daily Post Prompt.
Just passing by selling tacos, nothing else to see here. Green screen garbage again. The undertaker was asking all the questions I wanted to ask. Somerville power lines. Photo by Aaron Knox. Plague Journal 1 Special to DigBoston Originally published in the Somerville Times It’s a matter of common decency. That’s an idea which may make some people smile, but the only means of fighting a plague is – common decency. – Albert Camus Continuously in print since its 1948 publication, Camus’s The Plague tells the story of a town whose people are preoccupied with the making of money, until a pandemic prevents few—other than looters and profiteers—from doing so. It is a timely read for the currently homebound. Readers will recognize the entire cast of characters, from government authorities who dither and downplay the menace, to hedonists who pursue pleasure at the risk of infecting others, to ordinary people of goodwill who risk their lives out of “common decency. ” It is at once a detailed narration of human dynamics within a quarantined and imperiled population, and a metaphor for the moral choices presented by human existence. For Camus, the plague is the human condition in which random death can be visited on any of us at any time, without reason, and regardless of our virtues. The only meaningful response, for him, is to love each other and work—without expectations—to reduce suffering. “All I can say is that on this earth there are pestilences and there are victims—and as far as possible one must refuse to be on the side of the pestilence. ” Camus applied his understanding of pestilence and moral responsibility to public policy as well as personal choice. One of Camus’s characters suggests that most people are better than we think. “You just need to give them the opportunity. ” In Somerville we are blessed with neighbors who are creating such opportunities, through both existing organizations and their own social entrepreneurship. City government was relatively prompt in closing schools and nonessential public and private services. Now, what we paradoxically have most in common is our isolation. But all over the city neighbors are taking large and small initiatives to remedy the problems posed by social separation, lost services, and missing wages. A particularly ambitious effort is led by neighbors who have constituted themselves as Mutual Aid Medford and Somerville. They have set up an online spreadsheet where people list such needs as food, childcare, medical supplies, and housing, while others sign up to volunteer these goods and services. Aware that not everyone has internet technology in their homes, they are organizing hyperlocal “pods, ” which are small geographical units where a “point person” reaches out to assess and respond to the needs of neighbors. The MAMAS website has a map showing where these pods have, or haven’t yet, been established. At the other end of the scale are small acts that they will make a large difference for individuals and families. Two of my neighbors use the same housecleaner. They will continue to pay her, even though she cannot provide these services. City Councilor Stephanie Hirsch urges others who have the means, to continue paying “ gig workers” who “may find it hard to ask clients to provide this continuing support, even if they are in a very bad situation. ” My neighbor Kate Brillantes suggested that we all put rainbows up in our windows to create a counting game for cabin-fevered children whose parents are taking them for a walk. There are now rainbows on over forty houses in the immediate neighborhood. Mary Cassesso, who works with the Cambridge Health Alliance, described CHA’s acute need for protective masks to neighbor Renée Scott. Renée created a division of labor in which some of us gather fabric, others cut it, and others sew masks. Meanwhile, members of Somerville’s Artisan’s Asylum are conducting four separate projects to fabricate protective personal equipment for nurses and doctors. One product is a protective shield designed at the University of Wisconsin’s engineering school. The Asylum inmates are producing 1, 000 shields for CHA, and expecting other orders from nearby hospitals. Denise Provost reports that Rachel Mello, a past Somerville Open Studios leader, has been collecting donations of similar protective gear from artists for donation to healthcare workers. Somerville Schools staff have been providing grab-and-go meals for students and their parents, along with free diapers. They’ve distributed over 500 Chromebook computers and technical support to families that have no device in their homes that can access the internet. Recognizing that there are children in our community who received all three meals of the day from their schools, Dimitra Murphy has stepped up. Many of you will remember her as Dimitra Tsourianis, and others as the owner of Magoun Square’s Daddy Jones restaurant. Courtney O’Keefe tells me that Dimitra has launched a Go-Fund-Me campaign to pay for food assistance. As of this writing, it’s just $1, 500 short of its $15, 000 goal. Many of Somerville’s restaurants are offering meals for pickup and delivery to homebound residents. The Chamber of Commerce, Welcome Project, Union Square and East Somerville Main Streets, Velir and the City have collaborated on the Somerville Delivers website, where customers can place orders and restaurants can sign up. For elders who can get out of the house, Market Basket has set up special shopping hours. Aware of their heightened vulnerability to Covid 19, the store has established Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, 6:00 to 7:00 AM as Seniors-only shopping hours. It is often observed that crises can bring out the best and the worst in people. We are blessed to live in a city where the best dominates the worst. We want to hear your stories. Please share them with us, and we will share them with others. And please continue to inspire us with your acts of common decency and ordinary heroism.
What a amazing song and cool video. Where's Geralt when you need him. Average rating 4. 02 · 12, 565 ratings 1, 558 reviews | Start your review of The Kindness of Strangers Jordan, aged beyond his mere eleven years, cannot understand why this is happening to him. He is a child, unwilling and unable to comprehend his situation. For him, there is no escape. Sarah Laden knows grief. She feels it everyday her husband doesn't come home. She feels it deep within her bones. If her husband was still living, perhaps he would never have come into their lives. There may never have been that gaping hole. That cavernous void. This book was torturous in moments, yet ultimately.. I read this book about 8 years ago and it's one of those books that has stayed with me ever since. It will probably always be one of my favorite books. Even though it is also one of the most difficult books I have ever read. It's the book that comes to mind whenever someone asks for a recommendation. I had originally meant to write a review but somehow it slipped my mind. The novel was on my mind again as I just recently recommended it to someone. This book introduced me to author Katrina Kittle.. You know you're reading a great book when you start thinking about its characters and their story in your free time. This book completely consumed my thoughts. Although the subject matter may turn some readers off--the story deals with incest and child pornography--the author handles it with an immense amount of compassion and poise. I felt so attached to the characters in this novel, and Kittle (a middle school English teacher! ) didn't hold back; there were constant shocks and twists in the.. It's hard to review a book highly which depicts such horrific subject matter. That being said, this book will be one that will remain with me. Child abuse to the deepest degree. A difficult subject but yes I am glad I read it. Very well written. 5 stars! Wow - this was an intense, highly-emotional and uncomfortable book. I don't think it's possible for me to give this book the review it deserves. I had no idea what I was getting into when I picked it up. Kudos to the author, Katrina Kittle, for writing an extremely powerful book about such a devastating and disturbing topic - child sexual abuse. Pedophiles are expert manipulators who thrive on finding vulnerable children and they often lead completely "normal" lives. What an eye-opener!.. I'm still feeling conflicted over this book--it was a really hard subject matter (pedophiles, child sex abuse) and was full of terrible language in large quantities, but it was such an interesting look at a struggling family who worked through some really tough challenges and was even able to embrace another child to help him work through his trials. I loved the way the author captured the emotions of the characters--the story was told through three rotating points of view--and I was so.. This book is a perfect example of why I love my GR buddies- without them I never would have had this on my radar; I never would have known this existed, because let's be honest: that cover is easy to overlook. Don't let the cute cover fool you- this is emotionally draining. But it's worth it. Before I go any further, just know that you NEED to read this. It is heartbreaking. It is raw. It is real, with no pieces of truth extracted. Even if you only read to escape life's woes, please consider.. Although the back of the book attempts to summarize without hinting at content, my friend Cecily actually recommended this to me specifically because it was about childhood sexual abuse. If that is something you prefer not to spend free time thinking about, then don't read this. After working at a sexual assault crisis hotline for 3+ years, however, I'm sort of inclined to think that because silence surrounding child victims is almost as significant a form of oppression as the abuse itself, that.. When you hear about parental child abuse in the newspaper or on the tv it's normally about the court proceedings or the accused and very rarely any information about what happens to the abused child. This heartbreaking novel takes us on the same journey as the child who finds when his parents are arrested he cannot look after himself so is hospitalised and under the care of psychologists and social workers. He is alone, frightened and bleeding, All his friends and neighbors know what has happened.. This is an incredible story of surviving the unimaginable. It is a distressing read, and yet, the message of love and resiliency makes it a worthwhile. Kittle's writing is moving. I loved how she rotated the point of view of each character in alternating chapters, so that I knew each one intimately. I have gone back and forth between rating it 4 or 5 stars, and have decided that it deserves 5 because of the beautiful story telling, even though the subject matter of Jordan's life is.. THE KINDNESS OF STRANGERS by Katrina Kittle / William Morrow Press / 390pps / $24. 95 When an elementary boy tries to kill himself, people look for reasons. What they usually find is horrendous. Jordan is the quiet, skinny, pale boy who is best friends with the youngest of Sarah's two sons. Sarah is recently widowed and runs a catering business out of her home. She has catered "parties" for Jordan's parents on numerous occasions. She is close friends with Jordan's mother. When police.. This is not an easy book to review. It's also a difficult book to read due to the subject matter. Without giving away any spoilers the story revolves around incest, child abuse and paedophiles (which was surprise to me as I started it on an aeroplane journey so couldn't read the blurb before hand! ). It's painful and uncomfortable to read especially the 11 year old boy, Jordan, chapters. However it is gripping and the author covers this horrific subject with sensitivity and compassion. Told from.. Sarah Laden has her hands full raising her boys after the death of her husband. Two years later, she struggles to keep all her spinning plates in the air. Her oldest son Nate seems determined to make her life as difficult as possible. Being a teenager he chafes at the rules she sets down. And her younger son Danny, sweet and socially awkward, struggles daily with school and friendships. When she comes to the aid of a friend's young son, she finds herself embroiled in the exposure of a child sex.. A must read if you can deal with the subject matter. An emotive, compelling tale of the horrors of abuse and how it affects not only the child but also the people it touches. Despite the grim situation, it is incredibly well written with compassion yet without couching the horror in coy terms. It is honest which is sometimes difficult to read, it can make your heart hurt. This issue is so often exploited for shock value or tabloid fodder. There is no sensationalism in this story - but raw truth... Not bad, not not good, either. One does have to admire the author's guts in tackling such a touchy subject: incest/child pornography. Avoiding graphic details and gratuitous description, the author still manages to tell her story without it feeling like a cop-out. Unfortunately, "not being a cop-out" does not equal "a great read". The best way I can describe the writing is "immature": Kittle has a ways to go before she's ripe. The characters are cookie-cutter and predictable, the.. I absolutely loved this book. It is without a doubt one of the most heartbreaking books I've ever read, but also the most heartwarming, in an alternating pattern that varies throughout the book. Dealing with the aftermath of horrible child abuse in a way that is honest and real, there is no sugarcoating of facts to be found here. Obviously, things aren't blatantly described, but the author has no problem discussing the issue. But, at the same time, this is not a story about child abuse, but.. I honestly don't know how to rate this book because I loved it so much yet disturbed all at the same time. I found myself not being able to put the book down but probably because I wanted to know what was going to happen to each of them. Of course it broke my heart as we know this really does exist every day. I think it was a GREAT approach for the author to show- yes, good things can come out of horrible situations. I guess we need more Nate's in the world to convince us we have enough to give,.. This is an amazing book! I was totally enthralled the entire time. The characters- every single one- are so drawn out that you actually feel part of the story- that you know them. She deals with a very tough subject- child sexual abuse- but she touches every situation with great care. The way she has Danny, Nate, their mother, and Jordan going you'd swear she actually wrote down every little nuance from her own childhood and teenage years- she just does everything so well- totally believeable! I.. I really did not like this book, which I read for my Book Club about a year or so ago. The subject of the novel is the sexual abuse of a child--which, by the way, is not even hinted at on the book jacket (you only know that there is some vague "family problem"). The descriptions of this abuse were, I thought, overly detailed--almost lurid. I had the sense that the author wanted to write a story about a family with a real juicy skeleton in the closet, so she wracked her brain to find the most.. 4. 5 stars. Despite the excellent reviews, I was hesitant to read about the sexual abuse of a child. I have to say, though, that the author handled this so well that it was hard for me to put this one down. It really dealt with the aftermath of the abuse and the emotions it elicits from not only the victim of the abuse, but of those in the community, especially the close friends of the child and his abusers. I highly recommend this one. So this is one of those books that deals with a gross and tries to come at it in a serious way. This is not a horror book, it is a "chicklit" kind of story about a family who finds out the worst possible news about their closest friends. But it is not a very good book. The writing is clean a simple, but nothing special; the characters are not very believable (I have a 16 year old son and Nate did not ring true AT ALL) and there is no real suspense or intrigue. It.. Sometimes I find it hard to rate a book that deals with hard subject matter. What is most terrible is the fact that such topics are a part of real life; pedophiles, child sex abuse are what some families deal with each and every day and often these crude acts go on for years. You never know what goes on behind the closed door of your friends and neighbours. I’ve never been one to shy away from books that deal with such topics. It’s not that I enjoy reading about such things. It’s a book, a piece.. I read this book in two days. While I will not write any spoilers, I will say that I got very caught up in the story of a difficult situation that has a child enter foster care and the impact of the child and situation on the family dynamic of the foster family. Katrina Kittle creates wonderful, fleshed out characters that could be your neighbors. Each chapter is told through the eyes of one of the main characters. This style works very here to progress the story and to explore the emotions,.. Beautifully written, thought-provoking -- just all-around great. The author tackles a horrifying subject without making the reader feel prurient or voyeuristic, which I think is a major accomplishment. This was one of those books from which you have to recover for a few days before moving on to another. Despite the horribly disturbing and distressing topic (sexual abuse of children, child pornography) this story was told so powerfully, so poignantly that I had a really hard time putting it down (and stayed up until 2:30 this morning to finish it *yawn*). Kittle managed to carefully tiptoe the line between describing just enough and describing too much. It was enough to make me squirm.. This is a tough book to review. As purely a novel, I would give it 3. The writing is fairly simple; moments of raw emotion few, but powerful. The Laden family, Jordan, and the various professionals are all likeable enough as characters, and I think the author did a decent job illuminating a really difficult subject within the context of a family saga. I found Jordan’s mom, Courtney Kendrick, to be a bit strained as a psychological profile of a child molester, but then, I am no expert... You know that feeling, when something really sad happens, when you can't seem to take a full breath, and your chest hurts? All through this book I fought to breathe. Poor Jordan HAS to rely on the kindness of strangers, because both parents are monsters. Sarah and her boys, Nate and Danny, are dealing with the death of their husband and father, supported by the neighbors, Courtney and Mark. But the neighbors' secrets blow the town, and Sarah's family sky high. Sexual depravity and molestation,.. This book was really difficult for me to read. Being abused as a child and dealing with the questions of "why didn't you tell" have been subjects that I have had to deal with my whole life. I am still and will always be dealing. The love for a parent and the protection of "family" are the strongest bonds a child can have as well as the most desired bonds a person can long for. I don't know if any of Katrina Kittle's story is true or if it is derived from a true story but it takes some serious.. I read this book because Katrina moderated a recent Goodreads author discussion. It was amazing. About a hard yet so thoughtfully presented through the eyes of four of the characters. I think if I had known that the subject was pedophila and child abuse, I might not have read it, but I'm so glad I did. I was pulled in from the first chapter, and couldn't stop reading. I had lots to do, and read it in three omising myself, "Just finish this job and you can read another.. I did not like this book, not because of the subject matter but because of the way it was written. To me, the whole books did not seem to flow well and, again IMO, the author had bits and pieces that were not relevant to the characters or the story line.
Take this down before it starts a war.
