who knows

And how fucking long until we figure out how to reverse atherosclerosis

/rant

no kidding...

my mom smoked since she was 15 up until she died - 69 ... she had PVD/PAD so bad that in the course of 5 years she was a double amp.

A double amp?

amputation

Oh shit

legs

Yeah.

Dude fuck that

If h

I was amputated

Those are usually the first to go with poor circulation

or crippled

I'd exit stage right

lmao

I was very close to having that happen to me, but I managed to squirrel away

at the knee.... blood flow got so terrible they couldnt even get a stint in her knee area to help the blood flow... her leg was literally dying

I had a motorcycle accident 4 months ago

I was helpless, in all senses of the word, for a month

fuck that

Yikes

yea ....i think it broke her mentally cause she was a free person and liked going out and doing stuff and when she couldnt do it...and was confined to a wheelchair... she just gave up

It gets to ya

so ... PSA - if you smoke ...stop 😛

I'd consider myself a mentally strong person

But fuck, being bedridden wears ya down

@ghost5525 smoke what exactly

cigs

eww gross

PSA: Check out Emoxypine/Mexidol. Supposed anti-atherosclerotic

@KZ - yea... well that and Dad died the year before... in 2016... and he was a heavy drinker too... died of Liver Cirrosis - another way i would never wanna go out... the suffering and the whole process when it fails is...depressing

cigs are not worth it at all

nope

Alcohol fucks your cardiovascular system too

My uncle died the same way

yea tell that to the baby boomers though lol they grew up thinking it was cool and ok to do.

LAst year

Absolutely terrifying way to die

>make you smell
>horrible for you
>the buzz lasts only as you're smoking
>cost money

He was hallucinating

lung cancer is totally cool guis!

Literally 0 point

at least weed gets you high

and isn't as bad

ikr

Death by alcohol is absolutely terrifying

I can't drink

yea...you see em slip into a coma slowly...then organs start showing down because your liver cant filter out the toxins in the waste you are making...

I make impulsive bad decisions

cigs actually give you a buzz?

or become super thot

@Deleted User d0e93084 when I smoked yeah

They calmed me

When you first start smoking, yeah. Hell of a head rush

The worst of it is the Alcoholic generally knows they're on their way out

arent you a thot regularly?

And don't stop drinking

no

not that bad of one

everything i know is a lie...

This nigga was hallucinating in the hospital telling me to hide non existing cans of beer from non existing police officers

remember the last time i took him to the hospital he called me at work and said he woke up and it looks like a murder scene in his bed... like someone slit his throat... one of those throat varacies busted open and im suprised he didnt choke on his own blood

@ghost5525 jesus christ

@KZ hahahaha

yea.... spent the next 3 weeks at the VA .... in Palative care.... having fluid drained off him, and blood /platelettes

Did his Kidneys go too?

Wow, and now I'm never drinking..... ever

My uncle's kidney's shit the bed from something liver cirrhosis related

a

yea probably about.... 2 days before he died... he quit putting out much urine and stuff.

did he have cancer?

"Hepatic Encepahalopathy"

yep....

Alcoholic Liver Cirrosis

We thought he was going to be fine, that the hallucinations were just the booze DT's

my dad was bed ridden with chemo before he died

Nope.gif

bout a day and a half before he died though he developed this ....death rattle ... never forget it. Never wanna hear that again as long as i live.

My dogger had to be carried everywhere before he died.

😦

Death rattle?

😦

Like rambling?

The death rattle is the last breath tbh

poor doggo

Like by definition

Never heard the term before

Like the breath you release because of relaxing muscles.

Death rattle

no literally your throat makes this weird sound as if they have fluid in their throat and stuff...they can do it up to a day before death.

@Juan Rico i had to carry my dog before he got put down

he couldnt stand

Yeah I feel you man.

eh, I wasn't there when he died. I'll spend nights in the hospital with people, give them support. But if a plug is being pulled I'm outta there

and he shit all over the stairs...not his fault tho

mouth is usually stuck open and they are in a coma state..... body's remaining functions are on autopilot

yea both of mine went pretty badly imho.... def not on my list of ways i wanna die.

what is this depressed chat
