Why you don't turn for the worse...



On a public holiday
The doctors firmly closed their doors at noon. He got sicker and sicker after that point. That was why we spent the afternoon and evening at the local A&E.
A place that still has this poster on the wall, that some of you may recognise from the profile on Fet...


With an empty bourbon and cola can next to the bench that is outside the window overlooking that poster. Ah our local A&E, never a dull humourless moment. 

The bottom line of all this quality time spent on uncomfortable chairs... oh wait that was one of us, the other one was stretched out on a bed... it's a virus. A very long running virus that seems to have attacked the stomach lining, which is why there is nausea and continual, uncontrollable gas being produced. The upshot is; take antacids, paracetamol for the headache and fever, drink fluids and stay in bed.  There's nothing else He can do...
They're wrong.

He can complain...
A lot
And He wants stuff...
Continually... like all the time.

Mind you seeing Him in plastic bracelets and hooked up to machines unable to go to the bathroom at will...
Let's just say it wasn't all bad :D

I realize the posters are aimed at the vanilla who did not sign up to be controlled, but for some twisted reason I'm imagining another little picture beside those of a woman doing the "gotta pee" posture with "Controlling her bathroom use" under it.

oh gosh, I hope he feels better soon, that's sounds really rough :(

you know, that poster would be great with just the inclusion of a few words...

So the bottom line should read 'trying to take control of her life WITHOUT HER CONSENT is a form of abuse'

ancilla ksst - lol!

Yeah that poster is all kinds of special. Though one did use it for some time as proof that He was an abuser... for all the good it did. The general consensus was that pink phone was abuse, the rest, not so much. It was a tough crowd :(
