Evra
Years ago, I was on Ortho Evra to help manage my irregular periods. However, at one point, back in 2003, I told my gynecologist that I experienced a full loss of vision after climbing stairs. I was fine one momenr, but after climbing stairs in the high school I was in, everything in front of… Continue reading

Medical Prints
When medical science has perfected making genetically compatible 3D printed organs for transplanting… and it’ll be affordable. People are greedy though, so it’s likely that I’ll never see that happen. Genetically compatible organs that don’t need rejection drugs… the same as what you should have been born with. ~J.

I got… Continue reading

Signed, Sealed, Print
Yesterday was nice. Nice and quiet. I also slept better than I have in a very long time. Years probably. Yeah, at least for a good decade. Also, since I’m a geek, I was marathoning “Untold Stories of the ER” while building some Lego stacks… with only white, black and gray bricks. The large, the… Continue reading

Patience Will End
When I look back on today, all I want to do is cry… I got nearly nothing at all done because I could barely move. The fatigue that has clung to me for days is so severe that I came close to collapsing twice in my kitchen today. I was literally rocking on my feet… Continue reading
