The infection started with little to no symptoms, just my good pal Finn having a little interest in this show from the 2000’s called House MD. I thought nothing of it, but little did I know it was about to change the course of time.
It all started when Finn watched this god dammned show, expressed he loved it, I thought that was cool. However, as time went by, Finn started to LOVE the show. Too much. So much. Like he was getting infected from Gregory house’s medical malpractices. House and Wilson would show up in each and every conversation, no matter when, no matter how, I went for days, going through non stop house references, and I hadn’t even watched the show. He had gotten little keychains of house and Wilson and still to this day carry them around wherever he goes, and makes sure they are comfortable and cozy.
It was bareable at first, let’s say, the first month or two. Until it started spreading. House isn’t just a show, it’s an infection. It got to a few of my friends first, they started watching it. Now they are creating edits and art of Wilson. It got to my friends PARENTS, they watched it. Couldn’t get enough. Then, it got to my friends partners. Everyone was watching this show, but I stood strong. I was not going to let myself be taken by this House infection and get hyper fixated on it. Not me.
Even though I hadn’t watched the show, I knew everything about it from Finn’s nonstop references, I believe he was on the last stage of the infection before turning into Wilson himself. (I fear for that moment) but then, it got to my boyfriend. It hit him hard. He’s on season 6 in less than 3 weeks. He was deteriorating quickly, and I was scared for my safety.
However, one day, while my boyfriend was studying, he shared his screen with me and House was playing, end of season 2 to be exact. I said no, but…. The voices in my head said yes… and I watched it. And then another. And then another. I had been infected. I pulled up my laptop and started watching it from the beginning. I’m rapidly becoming more and more sick as this infections spreads as I become more engulfed in House MD.
I withheld this infection for so long but it has bested me. I love the show. If you or a loved one has had contact with Finn, please seek medical attention before the infection gets to you. I wasn’t strong enough to withstand this, but I pray all of you do.

My friends and I were all doctors in House M.D. and the only obvious symptom was that the patient had no face or head. Just like. A void.

One of the hardest things about working in a veterinary ER is delivering bad news. I feel like at least once a shift someone is blindsided by their pet being diagnosed with a condition they’ve never heard of before. In many cases this is unavoidable but I really feel that some of the most common critical emergencies I see would be easier for owners to process if they had prior knowledge about the illness.
The following infographic is far from a comprehensive list and truthfully I have a LOT more to say about diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of each of these conditions. However, this image shows just a few of the major points that I wish owners had been able to prepare for prior to hearing about them in the ER. Some of these conditions are preventable and some are not but they all require an owner to make difficult decisions in a crisis situation. If your pet fits into one of these categories, please just do a quick google about the condition, and maybe discuss with your vet signs that you can watch for at home.

If you are technically capable of going out or doing something during a chronic illness flare-up, that doesn’t mean it isn’t debilitating. You shouldn’t have to push yourself through pain, and it's okay to say "I could but I shouldn't. I could but I don't want to."

Splinter has come back home! Maybe he will know what to do! But with Donnies intense fever and Leos uncertain fate, this doesn't look much brighter than it did before, does it. Speaking of which, what's wrong with Leo?

Most people not knowing that tuberculosis is the world's deadliest infectious disease is part of the reason tuberculosis remains the world's deadliest infectious disease.

love a good forehead fever check as much as the next gal but like we’re sleeping on so much fever checking potential here
overly warm hands, palms just beginning to sweat
a rapid pulse throbbing under glistening skin
feeling the warmth radiating off of whumpee through a thin t-shirt
even better, cool hands against the overheated skin of a bare, aching back
grabbing whumpee’s forearm and finding the unnatural heat there
a loved whumpee’s legs resting across caretaker’s lap, limbs hot on their thighs
the top of a head, hair damp and scalp burning when caretaker rests their chin on whumpee’s head
the back of a flushed neck, cupped tenderly in a hand
overheated thighs, maybe gripped through loose sweatpants or mostly bare because whumpee felt too hot for anything but shorts
squeezing a shoulder comfortingly and discovering the warmth there
feel free to add on!

I ran into one of my childhood bullies and asked how she was doing, and she told me her dad wanted euthanasia due to some unspecified illness. Then her dad walked over to us and said, idk why it's illegal, I want to die.
