If you want to support Ukrainians, DO NOT donate to Red Cross. Can't speak about their work in other countries, but they're useless in Ukraine. The only trustworthy international organisation I can think of is World Central Kitchen.
Donate to World Central Kitchen
Tumblr media
And it's even better to donate directly to Ukrainian organisations. Here are a few good legit places:
hospitallers.life - "Hospitallers", Ukrainian paramedics on the frontlines
savelife.in.ua - "Come Back Alive", assistance to the army
prytulafoundation.org - "Prytula Foundation", assistance to the army, humanitarian causes
starenki.com.ua - "Starenki", helping elderly people
everybodycan.com.ua - "Everybody Can", helping disabled children, elders and hospitals
uanimals.org - "UAnimals", saving animals

Don't let republicans fool you with their national populism cause they do not give a single care for veterans who died and suffered for America. They would hollow out the VA and fill it corporate and political stooges who would blindly follow the GOP's bidding. Our government doesn't care enough for veterans and here we have Republicans confirming it, remember it was Biden who passed the CARE act. So remember a future where our soldiers suffer more than they already do is what the Republicans want.

Still haven't messaged my mom back. And I don't think I'm going to.
#you know how they say time makes you look on the past with nostalgia and that's why elderly people think so fondly of past decades? not me#there are moments I look back on with nostalgia sure but the overwhelming feeling of looking back on my childhood is just whatever I do#wherever I go whatever happens that will not be my life again. my memory is long I made a promise to myself I intend to keep I don't forget#support you having your grandkids if their mother is deemed unfit yes. take the older two myself if it comes to it yes. move provinces to#live with you to look after the five of them together where you would be my only adult connection and there's a language barrier and I have#no work history and I'd be between five hours and nine hours away from any other connection I have answer's an absolute fucking no. I've#seen how you are with my sister how you were with my brother. who do you think they call when they've had enough of you? do you not#remember most of the beatings I took was because I was standing between you and my brother? of course not because according to you you#never did beat me but if you think I'm not aware that would turn on me again the second I'm no longer distant and just visiting if you#think you'd find nothing to complain about because you've built up this golden child ideal of me in your head and want to forget how it was#when I was actually in your care you are very very wrong. I remember. I know that inconveniences a lot of people who want to forget#unpleasant things about themselves. me too to be honest I have memories I wish I could erase but I can't especially with regard to my#sister. I defended my brother but not her. not enough. and it's probably why I give so much to her now more than I should because it's#enabling but it is what it is I guess. I won't use my memories against anyone just for the sake of it but I absolutely fucking will#to protect myself or others. you want a redemption arc without admitting to anything? keep being patient and kind towards#your grandchildren even if you end up having to take them and if you can't do it for all five of them then accept that it's better for the#older two to be with me. that's it. those are your options: the older two are with me so you only have to look after the younger three or#you need to buckle down and learn from your past mistakes to look after the five of them and all that is *if it even comes to that* which#as things are it's not in danger of that! it was a regular fucking visit to monitor the situation that's all; they're not getting taken#literally every time she freaks out about something it's a 50/50 chance it's actually something or she's invented a completely#twisted version of events

booked a shift in an ambulatory part of the hosp but got moved to a Department of Medicine for the Elderly ward. It was harder work but also there were some really funny and/or sweet moments. some examples:
Lady 1: do you have an air fryer?
Lady 2: no, I don't. Do you?
Lady 1: Yes, in fact I have two. Wait no I actually have three.
(everyone laughing)
~
One of the ladies tried some of her soup and found it absolutely "VILE" and revolting and insisted I take it away off her bedside table as with such vigour as though she thought it'd try make her eat it if I didn't get rid of it.
~
Two of the ladies who were under specialling protocol (when someone is a risk of absconding for example, the nursing staff keep an eye on them so they don't abscond) were looking after eachother all day. Fully hanging out the whole day, walking eachother to the bathroom, tucking eachother into bed, etc. very sweet.
~
Funnily enough, not sure why, but most of the ladies thought I was a woman today, when that doesn't usually happen anymore. My facemask 😷 doesn't help because it covers my facial hair, plus I was talking about baking brownies and these ladies were later talking about how they did all the cooking at home. However, one of the ladies, appeared to realise I was a guy but maybe sensed something funny about me:
Me to her and her new bestie: what are you two up to? Are you plotting and scheming?
Her: How could you suggest such a thing? [trying to be insult me] anyway, you look like a woman.
Me: 👨‍⚕️
And later on she was saying something about "bloody fairies" but said she wasn't talking about me 🤔

Oh man wait until you hear about what happens in the forgotten old people warehouses nursing homes. Outright criminal activity. Neglect and fraud. Abuse and indifference. I saw a lot of horror during my clinical career, but some of the worst cases of human suffering, misery, neglect, and abuse came from nursing homes. Bedsores you could lose your wristwatch in. Skin tears the size of envelopes. Broken bones from falls. Diaper rash.
Sometimes, we’d get a Code Blue from the nursing homes. More than once the victim patient was already stiff and cold when EMS arrived to bring them to the ER, meaning they’d been dead for quite some time before anyone noticed.
A lot of these elders had nobody to care for them and ended up in shabby facilities through some machinations of fate; others were deliberately stashed there by families who didn’t want to deal with an old person. These families often show up at the hospital in a whirlwind of aggression and hate driven by guilt; they are often shocked at the decline in the elder’s health because they’ve been absent from their lives for years. We hide the aging and the dying because aging and death don’t fit the American narrative of being A Productive Person and we can’t have that! Acknowledging that people are people even when they’re not producing anything would undermine the capitalist hellsystem we’re all stuck in.
Apart from the human suffering of the elderly, the facilities themselves are understaffed to a criminal degree. I mean that literally. A nursing home in my town was recently fined and subsequently shut down by the state when it became clear that almost half of the staff on their payroll were not real people. The administrators literally just put fake names on their rosters and hoped nobody would notice and they got away with it for years.
The nurses and aides who work in these homes are, by and large, trying their level best with an impossible task. There are certainly some who are abusive or cruel on purpose; most of them, I suspect, are simply overwhelmed by impossible situations. When you have one (1) nurse and one (1) aide for 40 or 50 people, things are going to be missed. It is an impossible task.
And it is structured that way on purpose! This is done deliberately by administrators to maximize profit margins. Elder care in the United States is fundamentally an extractive industry: suck as much money out of grandpa as you can and when the well is dry abandon him at the hospital, where they have to take care of him. I worked at a long-term acute care hospital for a time and saw this in action literally every day. Oh, Smith is out of insurance days? Find an excuse to call an ambulance and send him to the ER and find someone new who has insurance days to fill the room. And once we bleed them dry, we’ll start it all over again.
OP is right that elder abuse is a massive and almost completely un-discussed issue in this country. It is shameful how we treat the elderly. It is shameful that we let this happen. We need to do better for our elderly.
there’s something so sad about how we treat old people nowadays. historically, humans have accomplished so many great things because we valued our elders, took care of them, and gave them meaningful retirement. meanwhile we have seniors aged 60+ working in retail just to survive. can you imagine working your entire life, just to work until you die? in fucking retail? 
old people are not useless, they’re not a drain on the economy, and theyre not all bigoted windbags. theyre people! people! who have lived their entire fucking lives under capitalism. they deserve to retire peacefully and pursue their interests during the final years of their lives. they deserve to be taken care of. they deserve to go with dignity. 
there’s a hundred things wrong with how society views old people, but i never see anyone talking about it.
