Pictures


Our First Video!

Here is Nemo's new pill box.  These are all her pills for the week.  She is currently winning the pill game (AKA who takes more pills in a day) 
We have a picture of it opened, because another one of our roommates did not believe that Nemo would use all of the compartments.  Sadly, she was wrong.

UPDATE: 

 Today Tremors decorated Nemo's new pill box.  Keep calm and fight Hydra on one side because we may have a problem (and Tremors recently introduced Nemo to Marvel).  We also have a blog post with that title.  Just keep swimming is on the other side, because who doesn't love Dory.  



Here is our countdown to Secret Agent Puppy (found on our Twitter)

"WHY WOULD I WANT TO DATE YOU?"

Let’s be honest here, dating can kinda suck.  I mean, it is really hard to find that perfect someone when you are in college like us.  We both know that miracles do happen, but when you have a chronic illness it becomes a million times harder.  There are a lot of things that make this more difficult.  Dating is already hard enough, so when you put chronic illness with trying to find a decent human being, you have a bit more trouble than the normal person.  Here we decided to discuss our dating / lack of dating lives.  Because we know from experience that it is super hard to find someone when you are chronically ill.  Let’s just say that while we hope to find someone one day that can see our good qualities, we know that may not happen.   For many people with chronic illness it can be difficult to leave the house. This leaves online dating. Just like any “normal” / healthy person, you can find some creeps while dating online.  Let’s just say that we have met quite a few of those onli

Things Professors Have Said...

            We are both college students, and in college we have had both good and bad professors.  Some professors are amazing, while others make you want to hide in your room and never leave your bed.  Sadly, we have had a few of those in the later category.  We decided today to discuss some memorable quotes from professors in both of those categories.  We are not doing this to be cruel, and we are not including any names, or descriptions.  We are doing this to show how tough college can be for those with chronic illnesses. THE WORST:             These are some things that were said to us over the past few years.  While not all sound rude, or insensitive at first, the meaning behind them are not great.   “It’s so nice that everybody here [in this class] is healthy” The first thing you have to know about our class is that multiple people have accommodations and I (Nemo) bring a service dog to class.  We are not the only ones with accommodations, or medical problems in o

Service Dog and Medical Leave

Image
                                                                              Even though I have spent a year on medical leave, I have been incredibly lucky. This year would have been much harder had I faced it alone, but I didn’t have to. A year ago I first met secret agent puppy. The most nerve-wracking time was flying across country to meet him for the first time. I was so anxious, worried that he wouldn’t like me, worried that his trainers wouldn’t like me. I wanted this to work so badly, because I desperately needed him more than anybody knew.             I have been fighting with my conditions for the past twenty-three years and it gets tiring. There are days where it would be so easy to give up, and feeling alone while everybody else is living their life just makes the situation worse. Prior to considering a service dog I got sick enough to have to leave nursing school, move back home, drop classes in OT school, and was facing leaving school all together which e
