4 years and oodles of paperwork, but now it's official. Big sigh of relief.

His only modes are upside down sleepy boy, chaotic bull-in-china-shop, and needy polar bear. It’s split pretty evenly tbh.

Looking to commission a few more of these for @the_polyphony. Get in touch!
Aly F@AlyFixit

.@the_polyphony doesn’t just reach an academic audience, and some of our readers discover medical humanities as a field via our site. So I'm commissioning posts introducing critical medhums - a ‘101’ series if you will. Key debates, history, concepts. Want to write one? DM me.

I had no support person with me because I was told it would be a quick pinch. I hear about friends who have had great exp at the hospital, but I can never trust the facility again. Second insertion w/ a doc (who validated my traumatic exp) went much better.

My first insertion was traumatic. I had it done at a *women’s hospital* and was told by the doctor that if I couldn’t handle the pain then I better not have children. It took 3 tries, and they threatened not to insert it if I couldn’t manage on the next try.

When you test positive for Covid but find out your offer has been accepted on your dream home on the same day. Only living life at the extremes here.

TIL during the 1918 flu pandemic, WWI soldiers who died from flu were listed as military casualties, artificially deflating mortality data. Just another way the 1918 flu became one of many #HiddenEpidemics.
