Anyone awaiting results for today? Good luck everyone!!

I’ve been practicing UWorld questions, and read the whole book. My strength is calculations

I’m not sure if I should purchase PPP since I’m so close to the day of my exam.

Or should I just continue doing UWorld questions?

Hello all,

I’m 28F and have been married to my 32M husband for 7 years. We live in the US and we live about an hour away from my mom and stepdad, and my grandparents who live about 10 minutes from my them.

Recently, my stepdad was diagnosed with terminal cancer. My mom, who is 58, is taking care of him. They live off of his social security check but thankfully their house and car are paid off.

When he passes, my mom will be left with no income until she turns 60 (2 years if he were to pass soon). She is unable to work due to some back problems and eye problems.

For this reason, she wants to sell the house and come live with me and my husband because she doesn’t want to live with her parents. They get along, she just doesn’t want to live with them because my grandpa “talks too much”.

This puts me in a very difficult situation. I have compassion for my mom, but it’s a delicate situation because my husband and I are very private. Additionally, we are planning on having kids soon because he just got a promotion. We’ve been having fertility issues and it’s not something I want to postpone any longer as I’m 28 years old. I just feel like my husband and I are entering a season that should be between the two of us.

Am I valid in feeling this way, or am I being unreasonable with my mom?

Therefore, I was hoping to tell my mom that if my stepdad passes, she should live with my grandparents until she can sell the house, buy a smaller place and use some of the leftover funds to live with until she turns 60 and gets survivor benefits. Her house is about 280k and there are small apartments in my area for 50-100k. I would of course help with this process and manage her finances to make sure she is being responsible with it.

Also worth mentioning that my stepdad has children and I have a brother that have been completely out of the picture during all of this. My days off from work are spent taking care of my mom and stepdad and helping them as much as I can. Also, I’ve been doing all the paperwork/calls with hospice and healthcare providers.

Please offer any advice on anything I might have written. And I welcome any prayers as well.

I work a remote job and there’s one coworker who I usually chat with and I only talk to them to be polite. We did end up going out for coffee twice because we live in the same city, but I felt very uncomfortable about it because we have very different values and I don’t know how to stop talking with her. She’s also very obsessive and has tried to ask me out again like 5 times even though I keep denying her

My Instagram is private and I made it public for about 24 hours and she immediately followed me. I didn’t have a pending follow request, she just happened to follow during the short time I had it public. This makes me think that she was stalking my IG and clicked follow when it was public. I followed her back just to be nice.

I don’t know why but I feel very uncomfortable with having her as my follower. I don’t post any more but all my posts are family/personal. Nothing bad it’s all wholesome content. But it still feels weird.

What would you do?

I’m on day 5 and woke up with a much lighter flow. However, towards the end of the day I just got cramps again and a heavy flow. Has that happened to you??
