Oh my god. The psycho staring into my eyes when says someone cheers!!! I hate it. I feel deep unsettled and it’s my sister who is determined for me to do this with her. Ugh. 😩

Thank you so much for your story and like you, I received so much judgement about using weight loss medication. At the end of the day, it is only me that will deal with health issues into my later years if my weight impacts my long term health. So in my opinion, Let Them think however they want… while I go skipping into better choices and a greater  healthier life. Thanks again. I loved your honesty and candour. X

I agree Mia, for a show… and it’s really, just a 

tv show, it seems like such a reflection on the lives of us in their 40’s, 50’s and beyond. I think I’m watching it for the thrill of seeing women’s lives at this age. I want to feel represented and the fact that they are each actor is struggling both on and off screen with what aging means and looks like, surpasses bloody Che and her dislikable character. I’ll keep watching… and probably try to seek out a pigeon purse while I’m at it.

This article brings me to tears as I just resigned from being a vet nurse with my only reason being “customers”. In the last 2 years, hearing on the phone and face to face, the abuse and unreasonable demands by customers has taken its toll and I’d rather be out of work while I find something not animal related. I am a 53 year old woman and rather resilient but some animal owners, (and I own various animals so know the emotional toil sick animals can be),  at times can be the most abusive I’ve encountered. And I’m just the interim before they get into the consult room!!!! I’ve sat with vets while they just deflate after once again being told “if you love animals, then you wouldn’t charge what you do” yet again. And it’s not their proactive…and I know the owners don’t have flash cars, holiday homes or anything of the sort. And they work 7 days a week even though the practice is open 5 and 1/2 days.


Some people feel pets are a right…and will pay $5000 for a snub nosed, deformed pure bred and then complain about $20 a month on flea and tick treatment, or spend the time to desensitise the dog to other people or animals. And then when that pet gets sick…and all animals do…. Then the rage is released. I’ve hugged a woman crying about her sick cat that she won’t pay for meds….as I walked her to her bmw. 

I’m over this as I’m sure every wonderful vet is….and it’s why there is a shortage!!!! Try and hire a vet for a small consult practice. Young vets don’t want to deal with this shite!!!! Give them surgeries in big hospitals so they don’t have to face the snark. And I totally understand and would probably do the same in their position! 

If you can’t afford it??? Get a stuffed animal.
