My mom suffered a stroke on June 15th and she's been in the hospital since June 17th. This is my second post in this subreddit but if you want to read the full details, you can find it in my first post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/stroke/comments/1u98waf/found_my_78yo_mom_3_days_poststroke_i_am_entirely/

---------------------------------

I am posting today because I am very worried about her. While she is still in the hospital, it looks like she may be discharged on Monday, July 6th. I have already done some due-diligence about SNF's around San Diego and I've found two that are likely contenders.

The thing that worries me about SNF's is that no one has anything good to say about them. I am have read and spoken to people who say they are all horrible, no matter how much you research or how good the reviews are. It's making me feel uneasy.

How things are 19 days later:

• She is left side paralyzed / neglect (arm and leg)
• She eats / drinks with assistance. No tubes.
• She speaks but sometimes its slurred.
• For some reason, the first two weeks, she was wide awake and alert but lately, she's in and out of sleep / tired which makes me think she is losing cognition or attention or whatever.
• I am also noticing she has short term memory issues.
• Delirium is another thing I am noticing -- example: are my slippers under the bed so I can go to the bathroom? (she's been bed bound for 19 days... not possible)

Besides some of these points, as a result of being bed bound for 19 days now, she has a considerable amount of neck and shoulder pain. The hospital does PT / OT with her but her trunk control is weak and even if I ask, they won't put her in a wheelchair just to walk her out of the room which may actually help her moral.

I've looked into therapies I can do myself while in the hospital with her and I have started doing some but I am REALLY worried about her. Will she ever walk again? If not, she will be bed bound and that In itself will make her worse.

Unfortunately, I have no choice as I am alone (50m) and I can't do it all alone so SNF is necessary.

If you're in a similar situation with a parent or love one, please offer some suggestions. I'm looking for answers.

Thank you

My mom lives alone and I haven't heard from her in a long time. I have her on "Find My Friends" so I can see where she is from time to time (78 years old) but her location hadn't changed in a few days and she wasn't picking up or answering my calls. So last night, I went to see her.

I found her laying in bed, slurring, bed full of urine and sweat. Looking at her phone, she had missed calls and texts. Her mouth was dry and she couldn't move. I immediately called the ambulance and the medical staff brought her to the hospital where she is now in an ICU. I've been reading extensively about the golden hours and she has missed it. Doctors said surgery is not an option. Her left side is paralyzed and the doctor said her stroke was severe.

I am alone, frightened and her only child (no other family that is local). The weight of the world is on my shoulders. On top of that, she lives in a subsidized housing unit and there is the HUD 180 day rule. Luckily she has Medi-Cal / Medicaid and her medical bills will be taken care of.

I am posting here for support and guidance as I am alone. So many questions are popping in my head.. I've done a lot of AI research but direct communication here might help. Thanks for reading.

Hey guys, I am new to TraderView and I have two 27 inch monitors as my setup.

Since I have a lot of real estate, I was wondering how many tabs, web sites, etc you guys load on your screens to trade effectively? I am using the desktop Mac app.

If you have some examples, please share. Thank you in advance.

Hey All,

Just wanted to show off my new setup and hopefully throw some inspiration your way. Long story short, in 2017, took a professional trading class but I never followed through but recently, took the course again and I am now very serious about it enough to invest in a dedicated desktop.

Doing research, I didn't want a noisy full size PC next to me that was going to take up a ton of room and because I'm already an Apple fanboy, I decided to buy a Mac Mini. How you may ask? Just last week, I was browsing reddit and someone on this forum posted that MM's are now in the refurbished store. That same hour, I placed an order for the M4 16gb 256gb model for $548 OTD (yes, I got lucky).

All in, I am $1200 and I think I've built one helluva system that will last me the next 5-7 years (its sole purpose is to trade and general desktop use).

• Dual monitor desk mount: $64.64
• Desk protector: $9.69
• Standing desk: $81.36
• 2x 27 inch Dell Monitors: $419.42
• Mac Mini: $548.45
• Magic Keyboard w/ Touch ID + mouse: $94.81 (used on eBay)
• Cable management: $17.23

I've been meaning to do this for a long time... So today, I spent a few hours around Monza (Pyyers 2025 version) and set benchmark lap times from F cars going back to the F355 all the way to the 458 Speciale (everything after the 2014 458 Speciale is meh imho)

But you know what? I'm really surprised the Enzo was the quickest.

I love Assetto Corsa... No other sim will allow me to do such a thing. If anyone is looking for a specific car, just lmk and I'll post a link.

Ladies and Gentleman,

I am 51 years old. Back in the mid 1990's, my first computer was a Compaq Presario with 4mb of Ram and a 256mb HD all-in-one desktop (18 at the time) and I believe I played it since it was 2.0 or 3.0. Long story short, I played for a number of years and even though the screen and pixels looked like mud, I found it to be pure joy...

Fast forward today, I've been following flight sim 2024 very closely and waiting for the Steam Frame to be released. Tbh, I gave up hope waiting and just recently, started watching loads of people on YouTube having fun playing this on PS5 using PSVR2 and since I have both, I said wth, I bought it from the PS store and here we're.

Immediately, I started playing with PSVR2 and after learning the tutorial missions, I started to do some free flight, downloaded the California pack and picked my home airport (SAN) and as I took off and started to fly... I just kept saying "wow... wow... wow.. wow... wow" for the next 5 minutes.

Young and old, listen up -- this is significant! I guess I am old enough to remember pixels being displayed on the screen to appreciate and not complain but there are a lot of complaints about the graphical fidelity of this game. However folks... let me tell you... we have come FAR... VERY far! What we have today is nothing short of a MIRACLE!

The entire world is your oyster -- pick ANY plane, and airport or just drop in wherever and you're in the sky's. What a great time to be alive to experience this in VR... if you had told me in 1995 that I'd be playing this using something called "VR" and I can land anywhere in the world and it would look life-like, I'd laugh at you and say you're crazy but that's what we have today.

It's been two days and I am 5-6 hours in. So far, I've only experienced the Icon (because I can land on water) and the OG Cessna it starts you off with. Love the Icon, especially that I can land anywhere I want.. land or air.

Oh and one other thing -- this is JUST the beginning! In the next few years, graphical fidelity will increase and things will become better.. you'll see.

If you're complaining about this game -- blurriness, bugs, I am legend type architecture (you know what I mean)... I've watched the reviews, I know about all of this but let me tell you -- you're "EXPERIENCING A MIRACLE".. Just be happy to be alive to experience this.

To bring things into perspective because we sometimes forget.... Have you realized the scope of games in 2026? its as complicated as going to the moon. In due time, all of the games issues will be resolved.

What a time to be alive!

PS: I have not experienced bugs but I am only 5 hours in.

Hey Friends,

I have developed quite a collection of cars that I am proud of but using content manager has proven difficult and I would like a visual experience to replace content managers car selection process.

Is there a mod out there that uses tags, folders, etc.. from content manager but organizes it inside of a visual user interface where I can look at all of my cars (perhaps in a showroom), check their details out (all the pertinent vitals.. description, power, weight, etc) and click to drive which triggers content manager and game loads up as usual?

I would also like to update the preview images because I really like some of the Kunos vanilla cars but find them outdated looking.

Sorry if this is asking a lot but I know somewhere, something like this "might" exist.

A visual example:

I've really goten into manual, mechanical raw feeling, driving and sounding cars lately and being a HUGE Top Gear fan, as many of you're as well, I was watching S4E3 the other day and saw the battle between the 360 Challenge Stradale and the 996 GT3 RS with BOTH having IDENTICAL times.

So I started to look around and found a high quality FM7 Top Gear track rip + the cars because I wanted to replicate it.. (if anyone is interested, lmk and I'll drop a links).

Lo and behold... BOTH cars, IDENTICAL laptimes on the sim. I know I am off by 1s from the show but still, it's incredible how these cars are absolutely accurate in terms of time. Best of all, they are FREE!!

Let's salute modders... they are hero's for keeping the passion alive! I mean seriously... just look at those lap times! Unbelievable.

I've become kind of a car collector in Assetto Corsa lately because I've gotten tired of GT3 cars and now I'm hooked on raw, mechanical cars from the past with or without ABS/TC. (getting an H-Shifter made them a lot more fun too!)

I've already built out a great Porsche collection but now I want to expand to BMW's.

Can you guys recommend some "high quality" BMW conversions for AC please? I prefer to drive regular road cars. I was told to hunt down some E30's because they were massively popular but open to anything that gives good feeling and sounds and drives great.

Thank you!
