I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz, or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off. I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul. I love you as the plant that never blooms but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers; thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance, risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body. I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride; so I love you because I know no other way than this: where I does not exist, nor you, so close that your hand on my chest is my hand, so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep. — Pablo Neruda (desktop wallpaper | phone)

For those of you playing the NSO port for Red Rescue Team: remember that the old Wonder Mail codes still work! Here is a list with a bunch of them.

For those that don't know how this works: in the startup menu of the game, there is an option at the bottom that reads "Wonder Mail". You can put a 24 digit code in there that will grant you items, get you special missions, etc. You will receive them in the mailbox once the right code has been redeemed and saved.

The FDA approved inhaled ensifentrine (Ohtuvayre) as maintenance treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adults, drugmaker Verona Pharma announced opens in a new tab or windowon Wednesday.

A first-in-class dual phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) and phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor, the nebulized therapy acts as both a bronchodilator and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, simultaneously relaxing airway muscles and reducing inflammation and mucus production.

As a critical care provider, I have NEVER heard of phasing out respiratory therapy. Our hospital is SHORT many RTs.

The fact of the matter is that y'all know those vents better than I do. I cannot do my job for all 10 of my patients if I have to sit and fuck with a vent for 20 minutes.

While I "know how to work the vent" in that I will want more Vt, change of a mode, etc, YOU as the RT know the technicalities of your vents. We (PAs - and honestly crit care docs as well) do not get trained that way. Period.

So, go be an RT if your heart desires. We need more, amazing RTs in this world. *shout out to Mama Poppi who is the BEST RT in the world*

This is probably a weird question, but I don't really know anyone who works in the medical field to ask directly. I've been considering a career change to respiratory therapy, but I knew there were several different areas in the healthcare field so I took a class at my local CC that involved "discovering different healthcare careers" and had us talk to and shadow many different occupations. I had 2 different professionals through this class tell me studying Respiratory Therapy wouldn't be worth it because they were being phased out because others within healthcare already know how to do the job they do. Do you know if this is true or not? I was really excited about pursuing this, but I don't want to spend time and money pursuing a degree if it is being "phased out." I haven't been able to find anything about this through just looking it up online, if anything my research indicates Respiratory Therapists are needed and in demand right now, so I'm a little confused.

Hi! Well I think that's a great question, but I am as "in the dark" as you are about this, since I don't work in a hospital setting with respiratory therapists.

I'm going to assume you're in the United States? You can send me another anon ask if not, so I can clarify the country in question for anyone who might have info on the topic.

Ok, let's punt this question out to the readers -- anybody have insights on the current and future demand for respiratory therapists in US healthcare?

a comic i made to encourage a friend some time ago (after i got vaporized…😔), i decided to share it, i did it in one night and drew as i went with no planning or sketching so it's a bit wonky and confused, but it got the spirit…! (???) sorry also if it is hard to read…

the idea was to show (?) that being consistent is very important if you want to achieve a goal, and that even just a little everyday can go a long way? It is also a call out to ME…😞

i am a little embarrassed aha, because i feel like it is clumsy and that it comes out as "there is one truth and it is mine" but that's not it… i got a little to passionate while sleep deprived but re-reading it now, i think it might give a little courage to someone else too???

or at least make you laugh? aaaaaa
