#and also why I will never blame my mother for not pursuing treatment for cancer

[navy-heart]

Medical abuse is truly one of the most horrific & understudied and dismissed forms of abuse, and the dismissal of medical trauma even in communities about trauma is one of the most disturbing things I have to witness often.

Somehow even people who have experienced psychological & emotional abuse have their first reaction to learning about you having medical trauma be "aw a doctor was mean to you sometimes and now you scared of white scrubs?". Well no, sometimes your doctors violently rip you away from your caretaker when you're five and scared and confused and in pain and proceed to do an incredibly invasive test on you without warning or care while your caretaker is shoved out of the room so you can't see her and you're surrounded by blood-curdling screams of equally scared children. You're told you need to toughen up and you do, because this will happen every day and you can't do anything about it. Because you're five.

And you know what? God bless the people whose medical trauma does stem from "doctors being mean to them", as if it makes it less valid. I wish I lived in the world where all medical trauma stemmed from that alone.

Glee season 4 Episode 10

Artie's Story

.Oh so Finn has actually noticed something going on with one of the kids that doesn't involve beating each other up or their ability to win him a competition. Is this growth?

. Wait.. so I get that Artie doesn't have his wheel chair in his dream, but apparently having glasses is a handicap now to?

. Ugh... The whole 'we don't understand Rory because he's Irish' wasn't funny the first time and it isn't funny now.

. Ok.. hold up! So because Artie wasn't in a wheel chair he no longer sees Becky as someone worth speaking to, which means no pity date and because Becky never got the validation from a boy who didn't want to really date her she suddenly becomes the schools pregnant slut?!! What the actual F**k?! Rory says she never learned to have self respect because Artie wasn't there? I think I'm going to throw up! What happened to Sue? Puck or even Brittney who all supported Becky?

. Tina apparently still stutters becau Artie isn't there to validate her.

. Artie is somehow responsible for Finn, Ryder and Puck being decent human beings and not kicking the crap out of Kurt? Since when?

. Wait.. so because Artie never ended up in a wheel chair and joined Glee Kurt somehow for held back a year and never met Blaine?

. Kurt is so responsible for Rachel pursuing her dreams, and without him she is a quiet librarian who doesn't sing?

. Without Artie Mr Shue is an alcoholic and is still with Terri and doesn't notice his baby is a doll?

. Emma ended up with Coach Tenaka?

. Rory says that Artie was to busy playing football to join Glee and apparently HE was the glue that held the club together? Hahaha 🤣🤣

. so because Artie wasn't there to encourage Quinn she stayed in her wheel chair and died? So we're just forgetting about Joe and his support? Wait.. if there's no Glee then why would she have crashed? She wouldn't have been on her way to a Glee wedding! Oh... She texts and drives in every timeline, that's how they get round it 😑. Oh and apparently being on a wheel chair without the supper of Artie Abrams leads Quinn to die of a broken heart? Wtf?

So conclusions from this little dream senario, is Artie believes he is the centre of everyone's universe and the world can't function correctly without him. He is the reason a young girl doesn't become a pregnant slut (the shows words), he is the reason Rachel is a star and in New York, he is the reason Kurt met Blaine, he is also the reason that Finn, Ryder and Puck aren't school bullies oh and he is the reason that Quinn didn't die of a broken heart and was able to able to walk again. Even though I recall Artie telling her not to listen to the docs who said she would walk again and then the only support we saw her get was from Joe. Oh and Will and Emmas love lives and happiness are all dependent on him to. Artie is a self involved Jack ass it's seems!

Kurts story

.awww Burt is the best dad ever!

. Noooo Burt has cancer!

.erm.. not sure Burt bringing his sons ex who cheated on him to New York after Kurt wanted space was the best idea, but I guess we bad to see them get together somehow.

Pucks Story

. Why is Puck hanging around the school Halls? Why is there no faculty members questioning this?

. On it's because he's 'scoping out highschool chicks' that's not at all illegal or creepy.

. Did Pick just kidnapped his underage brother from school and take him to LA?

. Oh so he DID kidnap him since Jake lied to his mother and said he was away with Ryder

. Wait.. so Puck has a sister that we and Jake never get to meet?

Brittneys story

. Hahahaha Brit and Sam get the Glee kids together to tell them how they really feel and Marley gets up staying she isn't listening to this, only for Brit to state she was going to tell her delightful.

.wait.... Did Sam just propose?

. Oh my God ! Coach Beaste is playing along rather than oh I don't know... CALLING THEIR PARENTS?

. Oh Gross! So Sam proposed so he and Brit could 'make the most of the time they had left' he used the apocalypse to trick Brittney into having sex with him?!! Coach Beaste this is partly YOUR fault!

Sue's story

. Sue gets Millie Rose as her secret santa

. Sue immediately starts to fat shame the poor, lovely lunch lady to is bullied and fat shamed every day by students and has no support from the faculty to a student? I can't even bring myself to type what she calls Mrs Rose!

. Why are the showing Becky as being a selfish little shit that is throwing every gift Sue gives her?

. Oh finally! Someone (Mrs Rose) has acknowledged that Marley has an eating disorder!

. Her mother tells her she is a beautiful miracle, no one in Glee club, her supposed friends could have told Marley this?!!

. Oh Sue is watching and seems to be moved? Pick a lane Sue!!

. Oh she's going to raise funds for Marley and her mum!

. Aww she got them presents and a tree! Oh and left money for Marley's therapy!

. Hahaha Marley says they would call the police still 🤣

. Oh so Brit and Sam aren't married and Coach Beaste played then because she didn't think they needed about teen marriage amd pregnancy? Erm..... Coach.. you DO know what people tend to do the night they get married right?

. So rather than helping the kids find something to be happy about, she tells them the world will end on a different day?!!!

Back to Kurt and Burt

. Kurt does NOT look happy about Blaine invading his space (again) and applying to Nyada!

Back to Sue and Mrs Rose

.mille knows, awww...... She won't accept the money

. Sue is being kind, wanting Marley to get better, but can't help but sneak in a fat shaming joke

. Sue can literally predict every move the Glee club makes

. I love hearing Marley sing, the rest can f**k off after how they treated her!

. Kurt still not happy Blaine is in his home! And I don't blame him!

Conclusions

Artie is a selfish ass who thinks everything good in the world is due to him and only him.

. Sam is disgusting and convinced a high school girl into marrying him so he could spend the end of the world having sex with her!!

. Coach Beaste is complicate to 'pretend' teen marriage and doesn't at all understand what people do when they get married!

. Blaine is a creeper who is stalking Kurt and disguising it as cute when Kurt wanted space. But Kurt's father brought him there and no way is Kurt going to upset his dad who just said he has cancer.

.Marley is wonderful! End of!

. Sue needs to pick a lane!

.can we stop fat shaming Mille Rose? She and Burt are the best parents ever!

. If I was Mille Rose I wouldn't want my kid back with those Glee kids after their treatment of her!

. it's apparently OK for Puck to kidnap a student and roam school halls looking to scope out young girls??

.
