u/No_Care_2022

So, my dad has a biopsy on Sat.

I also injured my foot 8 months ago, wore a medical boot as it was a bone stress injury - and was utterly devastated that i couldn’t get to London comic con to meet Damien, but it still hasnt healed so I’m seeing a top foot specialist later today.

Quite literally, the only thing keeping me sane right now is smosh videos. Mostly the AITA Reddit stories and the chat. They’ve been an absolute godsend for me. Shame i cant email them directly to thank them. Shane, Damien, Amanda, Courtney. They never fail to make me laugh & smile. ❤️

So as the title says. Hes had scans done, 2 neurosurgeons have put down that they think it’s glioblastoma. He has the biopsy on Saturday. I’m trying to be strong for my mum - my dad is teaching me things now for when he’s not here as hes deteriorated rapidly. If it is glioblastoma, he may not have long left.

On top of that, my mum isnt really coping.

For context, im single and live with a flatmate. No partner.

People have text me but thats it. Not one person, who I consider a friend, has offered to meet up with me and spend time with me. I’m off work currently as well, I just feel so alone and so overwhelmed with all this grief. I can barely walk as it is. I feel stuck. And I’m trying to be optimistic. Not quite sure how to deal with this going forward but I guess… one step at a time. Does anyone have any good suggestions for distractions?

How did you combat it? I had an MRI done only 4 weeks ago, and I have swelling in the bone itself. It’s gone on for 7 months and I’m currently in a medical boot. Omg I miss kickboxing and sparring so much!! 😭 potentially out for another 2 months after the boot comes off.

Hi everyone.

I injured myself 7 months ago during kickboxing. Had a private MRI done 3 weeks ago as the injury kept reflaring, and it transpired I have a bone stress injury in my 2nd metatarsal in my left foot and swelling in my left ankle.

I have been advised to wear a medical boot, except my job role requires me to walk a lot. Ive managed to get my duties adjusted slightly, but I’m frustrated as it just feels like it isn’t healing and my doctor just said I needed to “manage it - I can still weight bear, but don’t overdo it!?” Ive been offered stronger painkillers, and Thats it.

My ankle constantly appears puffy to me and I do still get discomfort when I’m walking even small distances now.

How do I help the healing process? I’m usually a very active person and I’m really getting depressed as it’s affecting my life and my work now.
