13.04.23
I'm finally done with all the assignments for this year!!! This lab report has been the most stressful one out of all of them. Mostly because there was so many experiments to do and then to have to write about them just made everything that more difficult. I am a bit scared of whether I have written in enough detail but at this point it is what it is.
I also found out about lemon8 (made by the company who made TikTok) and it is soooo cute. It's like a pinterest version of Instagram and I love it. The content is very curated to my tastes so I enjoy looking at the posts everyone has done. After a bit of RnR from this lab report, I will definitely look into posting some old pictures and do some editing.

TREATMENT, TREATMENT, TREATMENT
That is the only thing that was running through my mind on our way to the Hospital. Not counting the countless times the lectures have engraved it in our minds. Now that I think about it as the week comes to an end, I actually WANT to do it for the rest of my life.
Before fieldwork, it seemed to be 70% theory and 30% practicals but now I see it more of the other way around. Even theory comes from practicals(research).
Even though my supervisor had to remind me countless times that we are not assessing but treating, I have to say this is by far the best fieldwork I have been on. It was quite confusing always assessing and not knowing why or how this will help me help the client. It was exciting seeing the dots connecting and seeing the bigger picture that actually makes sense.
My first client had a spinal cord injury, level C5/C6, and in the great words of our former module coordinator Dineo Thupae I had to, ' Open that drawer' of learning that I thought I would probably never use, or so did, I think. One of the first questions we were asked was, what does your diagnosis affect and after the first, "Ohhh" a couple followed. We all left the OT department with bright light bulbs on top of our heads.
I assessed sensation, muscle strength, range of motion, and ADLs to name a few, but the real challenge was assessing the client factors that did not have specific forms that fit their diagnosis like balance as I could not use the Trunk impairment scale nor the Bergs Balance scale as one was for hemiplegia and the other had requirements my client could not meet. Now clinical reasoning had to come in. My favourite question to assist my self was, ‘What was my client’s highest level of function and how can I improve or compensate for maximum independence?’.
I saw my client's enthusiasm for OT as he is always in the department even when he did not have sessions, So I decided to channel that into participation. For our first session we did a leisure session, played a game to address a few client factors but also breaking the ice between the client and therapist so that intervention can be as therapeutic as possible. The following session was a dressing activity, and I’m still in the grey area on whether it went well on not, this is definitely going to keep me up at night.
I truly believe me, and my colleagues secretly share the same sentiment that we have the best supervisor in this block. Even though I’m dragging myself to prac, I find myself with an urge to want to ask more questions even when I have none. My “take-away” for this week was when Yolanda said, ‘Always question yourself as to why you are doing what you are doing’ and I guess that is why my writes ups are full of whys, which I intend on answering. The positive criticism from our supervisor and the OT combined will influence my clinical reasoning not only for this block but going forward, after all Yolanda said,’ We are here to learn guys, don’t panic’.
As masters of occupation, nothing is more encouraging than seeing a client attribute their progression to OT and regaining their independence. It takes 10 000 hours to master a skill and I can’t wait to produce my 10 001 hours, but this is where I start, https://learn2023.ukzn.ac.za/my/index.php

a lot of you probably knows Belphie's story, but I'll summarize just in case.
Devon Rex cats are better for people with allergies (less shed fur + less Fel d1 protein in their saliva), so on February 16, 2024, I went the breeder route and put down a deposit. before Belphie even opened his eyes, he was mine!
every Friday, the breeder sent me a new photo. I had a broken leg, and was basically rotting in bed at that point, so it was the best part of my week. then, at 12 weeks old, I BROUGHT HIM HOME!
at first, he was so alive! like a wind-up monkey that never shut off. he dangled from the wall-hangings, savaged my feet as I walked, and used my elderly cats as jumping poles to do cool acrobatics over. but all this gradually faded.
first, he stopped playing. then he stopped climbing. then he stopped moving much at all. my vet ran tests on him and found multiple pathogens (calcivrius + mycoplasma), but the medication didn't help - he kept declining.
on September 17th, I woke up to find him swollen like a balloon. we finally had an answer: he had Feline infectious Peritonitis, aka FIP. before 2017, this would've been a death sentence. he would've kept bloating until he drowned in his own fluids. and before 2024, I would've been forced to inject him with black market drugs. but thankfully, South Tower Animal Hospital in Fergus, Ontario was doing a study on the oral medication! we drove two hours, enrolled him, and left with the GS-441524 pills.
and he went from those photos above.....to this:
I thought Belphie would die as a kitten. I'd accepted that he would never grow up. but now he gets to LIVE!
and all for the low cost of $7,553.....ahhhahaha........god.
that + a recent home disaster has wiped out my savings, but I still need to pay for Belphie's medication. to remain in this study, I need to do bloodwork monthly until Feb 2025, and he'll need daily pills until March 2025.
I've put a risograph print + enamel pin set up at greerstothers.shop. I hate asking for help, but if you'd like to support Belphie's continued treatment, please consider checking them out!
#belphegor#I'm sorry that I don't have a printed version of the risograph to show you!#it's still in the process of being made#the digital preview doesn't do it justice - it will have a texture akin to pointillism and the yellow + pink inks will be practically neon

Hey, if you have half a minute and care about the LGTBQIA+ community in the EU, I'd suggest you take a look at this initiative to ban conversion therapies in the EU.
1 million people are required to sign, but there's barely 100k. The form takes less than a minute, it only requires your ID, name and surname.
Please, help spread the initiative so that it can reach the goal ASAP! If you're not from the EU and can't sign, at least reblog! Thanks in advance.

"hey why are all the barrier garments like linen shirts or chemises or combinations going away?"
"oh we have more washable fabrics now! you don't need to worry about sweat reaching your outer clothing when you can just chuck it in the washing machine!"
"cool!"
[100 years later]
"so uh all of those new washable fabrics are leaching microplastics into our water, and the constant machine-washing wears garments out faster. they're also not really sturdy enough to be mended, so we keep having to throw them out and now the planet is covered in plastic fabric waste that will never break down. also it turns out that the new washable fabrics hold odor-causing bacteria VERY well. so could we get those barrier garments back please?"
"sorry babe linen now costs $100000/yard and since it's been so long without them, nobody knows how to adapt barrier garments to the current styles anyway"
"..."
"maybe try this new $50 undershirt made of Special Sweat-Wicking Plastic Fabric! :) :) :)"
#fashion#clothing#modern clothing is NOT practical. it may seem like it on the surface but we've moved so far from#actual practicality that if you take one step out of the system it breaks down#and we need to change the entire system for our own health and the good of the planet#I'm not saying everyone has to dress full historical stylistically! but. we need to bring back some TECHNOLOGIES our ancestors used

comics as an art form make me insane. they’re so difficult to do well. there’s so many different ways to make sequential art work and most of them are deeply unintuitive. onomatopoeia that feels completely ridiculous to put down often reads seamlessly. panels on a page become a fractally nested image composition challenge that’s only possible to lose because if you do a good job no one will notice. you have to direct the readers’ eyes on a specific path across the page but also account for the fact that they won’t follow it. comic time isn’t linear. if the order of events isn’t crystal clear the story becomes incomprehensible. sometimes you need to do this on purpose. all this for a medium almost universally considered less effective than animation and less respectable than plain text. even its own name doesn’t take it seriously
#don’t mind me just chewing on drywall#some of the absolute best comics don’t look remotely impressive until you try to make one yourself#and some absolutely beautiful panel layouts and art combine to make a stunning visual that barely manages to get any meaning across#you have to emulate cinematography by cultural necessity at this point#but if you lean too hard in that direction your comics just become Worse Movies#there’s barely any standard practices for anything because people are just barely starting to look at comics seriously#mumbling

Here's uBlock Origin's official guide to bypassing youtube's anti-adblock popups, updated weekly. Please share widely. Don't reward google for their predatory anti-consumer bullshit
To summarize: 1. Get uBlock Origin and make sure it's updated to the latest version. 2. Click on the gear icon to get to the dashboard, go to "Filter lists", and make sure that "uBlock filters - Quick fixes" is up to date
Repeat those steps any time you get another popup (google and uBlock are having an arms race right now so it might stop working at any moment), and if you have any more problems, read the reddit thread for troubleshooting advice
