It’s been week since I finished this show. Probably going to rewatch sooner than later because that FUCKED ME UP and I haven’t stopped thinking about it. What a show. What an absolutely perfect and thought provoking, terrifying ending. Full sobbing. Full peace. Full anxiety. I think that ending is up there with the Americans, the sopranos (which I know is controversial) etc. one or the best ever in my opinion. I love that Dexter was also a mortician. I’ve always thought this would be such cool rewarding job, but I would be terrified to be near a dead person.
Now the kicker. Biggest jump scare of my life. Nate being diagnosed with a fucking AVM! They are not common! I can’t believe one was featured on tv. It was very realistic. I felt all of Nate’s emotions throughout. I think that’s the reason he became such an asshole because a brain injury like that just changes your personality completely. Mine bled before I knew about it but I still have daily anxiety about it even though I’ve had a craniotomy, coiling procedure and gamma knife surgery. I think he had an embolism which I couldn’t get as mine was directly on my motor strip and would have left me permanently paralyzed, I spent months trying ugh partial paralysis and my hand is still very weak. I felt so bad for him walking around with one. Mine took years to fully go away and I can’t imagine what it would be like to have one that hadn’t bled but living your life in fear because it is a time bomb and a lot of people don’t survive it.
I’ve scheduled a new scan because his coming back really scared me.
Anyways back to the show. Funnily enough I couldn’t stand Nate and wasn’t really sad when he died because he was a total fucking asshole in the end. I loved the characters and cast so much.
Mostly just came on here to rant about my jump scare.
I’m curious if any of my specialist have watched and if so why they didn’t tell me because it is a really realistic depiction of what goes on. Even tho the last time in hospital he would have been in an ICU without a roommate and being checked by nurses every 15 minutes doing neuro tests.
Any other avm survivors who also watched?

Hi there!
I’m not a student at BCIT but am wondering if there is a place online to advertise a sort of collab situation. I’m ideally looking for someone who needs to launch a brand or work on the steps to create a brand. I’ve been doing Etsy for a long time now and hate it. I’m very creative but am having a hard time with the follow through and execution of things like product photos and a website. I know I can do it all on my own but I thought it could be mutually beneficial for someone who needs to complete a project but doesn’t have their own subject to focus on.
I am able to pay of course but am on a tight budget which is another reason why I thought this would potentially be worth a try.
If anyone has any thoughts or suggestions or if I’m completely off base and this isn’t a thing please let me know. It’s all appreciated!
