How is Arefu doing? I really can't remember if those noisy punks that harass the residents have already been dealt with, or do they still skulk around, causing problems

Since I’ve never seen any kind of positivity post for this:
Shout out to people who get IV infusions weekly, biweekly, monthly, multiple times a year.
Shout out to people whose hands/arms/elbows/feet/legs are covered in scars and scar tissue. Shout out to people whose scar tissue hurts or locks up joints. Shout out to people who are covered in bruises after getting an IV.
Shout out to people whose veins roll or disappear, people who need multiple sticks or digging to get a vein. Shout out to people whose veins blow when getting IVs or during infusions. Shout out to people who feel like their veins have no more to give.
Shout out to people who cry or need someone to hold onto when getting an IV. Shout out to people who have anxiety or panic attacks when getting or thinking about IVs/infusions.
Shout out to people who will continue to need IV infusions into the foreseeable future. Shout out to people who will continue to need IV infusions for the rest of their lives. Shout out to the people who leave their IV in for several days, and thus need to cover it and continue with school, jobs, chores, etc, and sleep with it in.
Shout out to the kids and teens who need IV infusions.
Shout out to people who feel self-conscious about their IV scars. Shout out to people who worry about someone noticing them and treating them differently (though no one should be shamed for their scars, no matter how they got them).
Shout out to people who are traumatized from IVs/infusions. Shout out to people who have terrible memories associated with IVs/infusions.
Shout out to people who go to the hospital for infusions. Shout out to people who get infusions at home. Shout out to people who lose hours of their days while getting infusions.
You are no less worthy of love and positivity because you need IV infusions.
--
Anyone can reblog (and please do!), but only people who need (or have needed) regular/intermittent IV infusions should add on.

Mugwort Rose Elixir - Hagging Out
Packing up to head to my last ever Dead & Co. show but have a few minutes for a mini hag out.
My mugwort is having its most prolific season ever so I want to use it in everything, and the roses are old fashioned tea roses so they actually smell rosy. I’m infusing them in brandy, and later I’ll add honey, which is what makes this an elixir and not just a tincture.
Besides being a very effective dream herb, mugwort has some analgesic qualities, and is especially good for period cramps and to bring on menses. It’s not an herb for pregnant folks, because it’s also an abortifacient.
I paired it with roses just on intuition; rose is soft and sensual; sort of the Aphrodite of the plant world. Mugwort is hidden knowledge and liminal spaces, maybe akin to Hekate, though of course it’s an herb of Artemis. I just liked the juxtaposition.
Thank you again to @graveyarddirt for pulling these collective exercises together. 🖤

I spent a lot of time at the oncologist's office yesterday. I had labs, then waiting, then visited my oncologist, then more waiting, then my immunotherapy infusion, during which I had to sit and wait until it was finished. So, I worked more on my epp quilt!

Okay. Tomorrow is my first infusion. I've got a bag packed with my book, power bank, headphones, snacks, drinks, and my medical information. I just have to clean out my water bottle and I'm going to bed.
My appointment is at 11am.
I'm terrified.

Got my first high roll in gw2 with a mistwalker infusion and used it before I realise you could sell it...
Well, at least I'm all glowy now...!

I have my first remicade infusion coming up on Wednesday and I don’t even have words to put to the whirlwind of emotions I’m feeling about it. I’m so nervous and sad and terrified and exhausted and feel so trapped

Did a thing or two.
Took a soap class. We did unscented goat milk & oatmeal soap.
Well I did some dandelion, raw cow milk and honey soap.
I did ask my brother to 3D print me some stamps 😆😍.
Working on my next oil infusion 🤭♥️

I may be done with chemo, but I am still getting my immunotherapy infusions every three weeks. My EPP quilt gives me something to do while I get my infusions and while waiting for my appointments.

Butterfly Pea Tea - Crystal
18 year old Crystal is a part time waitress at the tea shop to pay for college. Her older siblings Caelum and Serenity are constantly worried about her because she seems so small and defenseless. She comes from a rich family, but is very down to earth and works hard. Her best friend is Rosalina, who is a pastry chef in training.
About the tea: Butterfly pea flowers, also called Asian pigeonwings, can be made into an herbal tea that's a unique blue color that changes to pink when lemon or lime juice is added. Fresh or dried flowers can be used. Steep the tea for 3-5 minutes, then let cool. Add ice and simple syrup, and mix with lemonade/lime juice for a refreshing summer drink!
