Choosing the Best Hip Replacement Surgeon in Delhi/NCR: What You Need to Know

Hip replacement surgery is a life-altering procedure for individuals suffering from debilitating hip pain, stiffness, and limited mobility. This surgery has helped millions of people regain their independence and return to an active lifestyle. However, the success of a hip replacement largely depends on choosing the right surgeon and understanding the entire process—from the initial diagnosis to recovery. In this blog, we’ll explore what hip replacement surgery entails, who may need it, the different types of procedures available, and how to find the best hip replacement surgeon in Delhi/NCR.

What is Hip Replacement Surgery?

Hip replacement surgery, also known as hip arthroplasty, involves replacing the damaged or worn-out parts of the hip joint with artificial components, typically made of metal, ceramic, or plastic. This procedure is most commonly performed on patients with severe arthritis, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or post-traumatic arthritis, as well as those who have suffered significant injury to the hip joint.

The surgery aims to relieve pain, improve mobility, and enhance the overall function of the hip joint, allowing patients to return to their daily activities with greater ease.

Types of Hip Replacement Surgery

There are several types of hip replacement surgeries, each tailored to the patient’s specific condition and needs:

Total Hip Replacement (THR): In a total hip replacement, both the ball (femoral head) and the socket (acetabulum) of the hip joint are replaced with artificial implants. This is the most common type of hip replacement and is highly effective for patients with extensive joint damage.

Partial Hip Replacement (PHR): Also known as hemiarthroplasty, this procedure involves replacing only the ball of the hip joint. It is typically recommended for patients with a fractured femoral head but an otherwise healthy hip socket.

Hip Resurfacing: This procedure is less invasive than a total hip replacement and involves capping the femoral head with a metal prosthesis instead of removing it. Hip resurfacing is often an option for younger, more active patients with healthy bone structure.

Revision Hip Replacement: In cases where a previous hip replacement has failed or worn out over time, a revision hip replacement is performed. This involves replacing the old prosthesis with a new one.

Who Needs Hip Replacement Surgery?

Hip replacement surgery is generally recommended for individuals who have:

Severe Hip Pain: Persistent hip pain that interferes with daily activities, such as walking, climbing stairs, or sitting down, may indicate the need for surgery.

Limited Mobility: Difficulty moving the hip joint, even with the help of a cane or walker, can be a sign that the joint has deteriorated to the point where surgery is necessary.

Failed Conservative Treatments: When other treatments, such as physical therapy, medications, or injections, fail to provide relief, hip replacement surgery may be the next step.

Hip Deformity: Structural deformities in the hip joint that cause pain and limited function may require surgical intervention.

Hip Joint Damage: Extensive damage to the hip joint due to arthritis, injury, or avascular necrosis may necessitate a hip replacement.

Finding the Best Hip Replacement Surgeon in Delhi/NCR

Choosing the best hip replacement surgeon is crucial for ensuring a successful surgery and a smooth recovery. Here are some tips on how to find the right surgeon in Delhi/NCR:

Research and Referrals: Start by researching hip replacement surgeons in Delhi/NCR. Seek referrals from your primary care physician, orthopedic specialists, or friends and family who have undergone hip replacement surgery. Look for surgeons with a strong reputation for success in hip replacement procedures.

Check Credentials: Verify the surgeon’s qualifications, certifications, and experience. The best hip replacement surgeon in Delhi/NCR will have extensive experience performing hip replacements and will be board-certified in orthopedic surgery.

Consider Specialization: Some orthopedic surgeons specialize in joint replacement surgeries, including hips. It’s beneficial to choose a surgeon who has a dedicated focus on hip replacements, as they will have more expertise and a better understanding of the procedure.

Hospital Affiliation: The hospital where the surgery is performed plays a significant role in the success of the operation. Look for hospitals in Delhi/NCR that have state-of-the-art facilities, advanced technology, and a dedicated team for post-operative care. Top hospitals often have specialized joint replacement centers.

Patient Reviews and Testimonials: Reading patient reviews and testimonials can provide insights into the surgeon’s skill, bedside manner, and overall patient experience. Positive feedback from former patients is a strong indicator of the surgeon’s competence.

Consultation: Schedule consultations with the shortlisted surgeons to discuss your condition and treatment options. A good surgeon will take the time to explain the procedure, potential risks, and expected outcomes. They should also be open to answering all your questions and addressing any concerns you may have.

Second Opinion: If you have any doubts or want to explore other options, don’t hesitate to seek a second opinion. It’s important to feel confident and comfortable with the surgeon you choose for your hip replacement.

The Hip Replacement Procedure

Understanding what happens during hip replacement surgery can help alleviate some of the anxiety associated with the procedure. Here’s an overview:

Pre-Surgery Preparation: Before the surgery, your surgeon will conduct a thorough evaluation, including physical exams, imaging tests (like X-rays or MRI), and preoperative blood tests. You’ll also meet with an anesthesiologist to discuss anesthesia options, which may include general or regional anesthesia.

Surgery: On the day of the surgery, you’ll be given anesthesia to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure. The surgeon will make an incision to access the hip joint, remove the damaged bone and cartilage, and replace them with the artificial implants. The incision is then closed, and the hip is bandaged.

Recovery: After surgery, you’ll spend a few days in the hospital under observation. Physical therapy will begin soon after the surgery to promote mobility and strengthen the hip. Full recovery can take several weeks to months, depending on your overall health and the type of hip replacement performed.

Post-Operative Care and Recovery

The recovery process after hip replacement surgery is crucial to achieving the best possible outcome. Here are some key aspects of post-operative care:

Pain Management: Your surgeon will prescribe pain medications to manage discomfort during the initial recovery phase. It’s important to take them as directed to manage pain effectively.

Physical Therapy: Physical therapy is essential for regaining strength, flexibility, and range of motion in your hip. A physical therapist will guide you through exercises designed to aid your recovery.

Follow-Up Appointments: Regular follow-up appointments with your surgeon are necessary to monitor your progress and address any concerns.

Lifestyle Modifications: Maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding high-impact activities, and following your surgeon’s recommendations will help extend the life of your hip implant and improve your overall well-being.

Hip replacement surgery can dramatically improve your quality of life, especially if you’ve been suffering from chronic hip pain and limited mobility. Finding the best hip replacement surgeon in Delhi/NCR is crucial for ensuring a successful outcome. By following the tips outlined in this blog, you can make an informed decision and embark on your journey toward a pain-free, active life.

If you’re considering hip replacement surgery, don’t hesitate to consult with a qualified orthopedic surgeon to discuss your options and take the first step toward a healthier, more mobile future.

finger derformity treatment by dr sandeep gupta by Dr Sandeep Gupta Via Flickr: A Boutonniere deformity can happen for several reasons. It can happen from a cut of the tendon on the back of the finger or the thumb. It can also be due to the tearing or weakening of the same tendon due to an injury or from a disease like rheumatoid arthritis. This results in the bent position of the joint.

One day in July, Anas had gone to inspect his home and their family home because they were displaced into a tent and were hoping to move back. However, when he arrived the occupation fired at him from planes and hit him directly on his feet. He was buried under rubble and Anas' injuries were extensive. Thankfully, his friend was able to rescue him and take him to the hospital, where only the bone in his leg was intact, and the remaining tissue was extensively damaged.

At the hospital, Anas received reconstructive surgery. The doctor performed 12 reconstructive operations, transferring tendons, connecting nerves, and building muscle and skin from transplants from his hip. He was spared from amputation thanks to the surgeon, however the damage to the nerves and tissues was unable to be completely treated due to lack of resources.

Although Anas has received some treatment and surgeries since his injury in July, he requires more extensive treatment abroad where they have the resources to treat him properly and possibly do an ankle transplant. Anas is a father to a young girl, and wants to be able to walk again and play with his daughter more than he can now.

Hospital Lengths of Stay

I think people outside the USA severely overestimate how long hospital stays are here.

Like, appendectomy, right? That's maybe 24-36 hours door-to-door if there's no complications. If the appendix actually burst it might be 3 days, but only because they're giving you IV antibiotics and setting up home care to do that at home would take longer than just keeping you in the hospital.

A scheduled surgery like a hysterectomy, cholecystectomy, mastectomy, or anything else they can do laparoscopically (though small "keyhole" incisions)? You're probably not staying overnight at all.

Planned surgeries that need some kind of after care (like bariatric surgery, knee replacements, hip replacements, total vaginal hysterectomies, bladder lifts, etc...) would be usually 1-3 days.

Minor heart attack? 2-3 days.

Fracture and surgical repair of a large bone (like the femur)? About 2-3 days.

What about the exacerbation of a chronic illness like asthma, COPD, heart failure, or hypertension? IF they admit you (not just stabilize and discharge from the emergency department), it will be generally less than about 3-5 days.

Gunshot wound to the abdomen with surgery to repair things? 3-5 days.

And a stroke, sepsis, gunshot wound to the chest, or major heart attack? That would be somewhere in the 5-7 day range.

Severe trauma with multiple severely broken bones and relatively extensive surgery? This might be somewhat longer, but usually for nursing and pain control reasons rather than the surgery or injuries themselves. 1-3 weeks would be usual.

In the hospital for a mental health reason like decompensated schizophrenia or major depression? A little less than a week is normal, though some people stay several weeks if medications aren't working well.

The people who stay in hospitals for weeks or months typically have whole systems that don't work, or are waiting for a major organ transplant. For example, I had a patient once whose entire abdomen was open and couldn't be closed surgically. She was on TPN (IV nutrition) and IV antibiotics and needed massive amounts of wound care done every hour or so because her intestinal contents were spilling out of her open abdomen. She was there for months and ultimately didn't make it.

Are there people who stay longer than these cases? Of course! These are just averages pulled from medicaid data and personal experiences, based on patients who are coming in relatively healthy. Patients who have other significant health problems usually stay longer than patients who come in with a single problem.

But if you are otherwise healthy except for the reason you came into the hospital, unless you fell off a building or were in a massive car accident you are probably not staying in the hospital very long at all.

Sorry to keep bombarding you with house MD reqs but may I request a Wilson x transmasc reader for kinktober? Specifically with either the edging/overstimulation prompt or the Public sex prompt. I'm on James Wilson of Oncology brainrot 😔☝️

- 🌝

ofc you can! and don't even worry about it, I love all the requests you send in 🥰 thanks for the kinktober request!

(also I went with Wilson being on the receiving end of the edging/overstimulation but if you ever want a fic in the future that has it the other way around please don't hesitate to ask! I love writing subby characters with dom readers but I understand completely if that's not really what you had in mind)

Kinktober 2024 Day 10: James Wilson x transmasc reader having semi-public sex that involves edging/overstimulation

Warnings: smut/nsfw content, semi-public sex, both edging and overstimulation, riding, bottom sub Wilson, top dom reader, condom use/protected sex implied but not explicitly stated (please use a condom irl if you don't want stds and/or children I beg of you), slight humilation kink, could be seen as dubcon in some areas but everything was properly consented to beforehand

Princeton Plainsbouro Teaching Hospital was great for many things. Getting a check-up, having a transplant, resting after spending several grueling hours in surgery. One of the things it was also used for was the occasional quickie between members of the staff.

Sometimes it was in dark corriders, though mostly it was empty patient rooms or supply closets. This time happened to be in the office of a certain head of oncology.

"Shush, James. You have to be quiet unless you want us to get caught," you murmured teasingly in his ear as you sat on his lap. You were straddling him as he sat in his desk chair, his dick plunged deep inside of you.

"You're doing this on purpose," he lightly accused, his voice strained. His hands were gripping tightly onto the armrests of the chair as he did his best not to allow himself to get any more worked up than he already was.

You'd been cruel, and you knew it. He'd been edged for the past half hour or so as you made yourself cum again and again and again, forced to do nothing but sit there and watch as it happened. You promised (well, threatened is more like) that the second he came without having your permission first you'd get up and leave, and he couldn't possibly have that.

So he simply sat there, the light sheen of sweat on his face and neck causing his skin to glisten in the light. If he wasn't so focused on keeping himself from cumming, he'd have been admiring the view of you on top of him.

He so desperately wanted to finish, at least get the chance to cry out your name, but he knew both of those things were currently off the table if he wanted you to stay.

"Please," he begged in a pitiful whine, trying not to squirm as he felt you clench around him. "It's- it's not fair-"

"You sound so pretty when you beg." You leaned in and peppered the side of his neck with teasing kisses as you continued to slowly move up and down in his lap. It was hard not to smirk when you felt the way he hips jolted upwards into yours, further signifiying his growing need. "Ah, ah, ah. What did I say about moving?"

"Please, please let me cum," Wilson pleaded with you, his bottom lip (which was pink and swollen from all the rough kisses you'd given him earlier) sticking outwards in a visible pout. "I- I can be quiet- I'll be good for you, I promise-"

"Hm..." You pretended to think it over before finally relenting. "I'll let you cum, but you can't stop until I tell you to, okay?"

If he'd been thinking clearly, he probably would've taken a bit longer to consider your conditions, but your offer was just too good for him to refuse. "D- Deal. Whatever you want from me, I'll do it, I swear."

Famous last words, you thought while pulling your face away from his neck, a certain glint of mischief in your eyes. "Alright, baby. You can cum now if you really want to."

It was like the floodgates had opened up just from you saying those words alone. His body tensed up underneath you, and you could feel his dick twitch inside of you as he released his load. Thank god for condoms, because otherwise that would've been one hell of a mess to clean up.

He leaned back against the chair as he tried to catch his breath, his eyes shut and his breathing ragged. It almost made you feel bad for what you were going to do next.

When he felt you pull off him and move back to sit on his thighs, he thought nothing of it. It wasn't until your hand met his aching cock that he realized what was going on.

His eyes shot open almost immediately when you wrapped your hand around his member and began to slowly jerk him off, which prompted him to remember your words from earlier. "I'll let you cum, but you can't stop until I tell you to."

"Oh, god..." He whimpered pathetically as he squirmed around in his seat, realizing the overstimulation he felt from your touch was just going to keep getting worse until you decided to give him a break.

"I don't think he can help you now," you replied with a smug grin, visibly proud of yourself for the mess you'd made of the usually so put-together doctor.

He could only let out broken mewls in response, his head tilting backwards as his eyes glazed over. "T- Too much... Can't do it..."

"Yes, you can," you insisted in a soft yet firm tone, giving his sensitive cock a light squeeze to further set him on edge.

It must've worked, because you heard his nails scratch at the leather upholstery on his chair's armrests in an attempt to help ground himself. "I can't," he protested in a strangled plea.

You disreguarded his words as you continued to pump his member, which was slick with your arousal from when he'd been inside of you. "You're going to get the both of us caught if you keep whining like that."

He huffed loudly in frustration, not amused. "Y- You're awful. You want us to get caught at this point, don't you?"

"Keep acting like a brat, and I'll page House. I'm sure he'd just love to get a front row view of you falling apart underneath me."

That certainly did a good job of shutting him up. If there was one thing that was worse than being teased and taunted relentlessly by you, it was being teased and taunted relentlessly by both you and House. He already disliked it happening in general, meaning there was no way he wanted to experience it in a situation like this one.

"Just once more, okay? Cum for me once more, and then we're finished," you bargained with him as you kept your hand wrapped around his cock. "Just one more time, baby, you can do it, c'mon."

The combination of your promise and the gentle encouragements you gave only got him closer and closer to his goal. It wasn't until you leaned in and sunk your teeth into the side of his neck in an affectionate bite that he was officially pushed over the edge.

He heart was racing at this point, his legs shaking somewhat as the aftermath of his orgasm washed over him. "You can never settle for just a normal quickie, can you?" His voice was breathless as he lightly joked with you, his chest visibly rising and falling as he sat back in his chair.

You looked like the cat that ate the canary as you watched him, overly smug at how wrecked he looked right now. "With someone as irresistible as you? Never."

"Doctor Lucas"

Alright friends, it's time to talk about my biggest LITG pet peeve. It happens all the time, I'm reading a Lucas villa fic or scrolling through Tumblr and I see it: "doctor Lucas". My brain immediately checks out, alarm bells blaring.

I want to be clear here, I'm not policing headcannons or what you can or can't do in fic, especially AUs, the entire point of AUs is to mix things up like careers or backgrounds, etc.

What I am saying, is that canonically, Lucas is a physiotherapist.

For some reason, of all the physios we have (Summer and Jack), Lucas is the only one that's often referred to as a doctor. Maybe it's because he works in a hospital, or maybe somewhere along the line fanon warped him into something else. But as an acute care PT, nothing will make me click out of a post/canon compliant fic/etc faster than "doctor Lucas" or having him do something wildly out of scope.

For one thing, the US is the only country that requires a doctorate for physical therapy. That being said, I can count on one hand the number of times someone even knows I have a doctorate, and I have never been called Doctor outside of the academic setting.

So what does a hospital physio do?

Preserve mobility: let's be real, sick people don't want to move, but lying in bed all day makes you lose strength and range of motion fast

Transfers: how do you get to a chair now that you suddenly don't have left leg anymore? How can I make moving less painful for you following major abdominal surgery? How do you move when you have new precautions and can't bend your hip past 90 degrees?

Gait: Do you need a walker now? A cane? Do you have weight bearing restrictions and need to figure out how to walk with them? Is your gait pattern unsafe?

Stairs: Are there stairs at your house? How can I make them safer for you and the person who's going to be helping you? What techniques can I teach you to help decrease pain and increase safety?

Balance: 99% of people in the hospital are at an increased risk for falls, how can I decrease that? What can I do to improve your balance?

Discharge recs: Where is the patient going after the hospital? Are they safe to go home or do they need rehab? Do they need any equipment to be safe at home? 90% of the time, the rehab department is the one making those calls.

Communicate mobility needs to staff and family: Most of the time, I'm the first one getting someone up. Do they need 2 people to sit on the edge of the bed? Does their right knee buckle when they walk? This is important information that the people taking care of the patient needs to know for everyone's safety.

We see patients post stroke, waiting on transplants, post surgery, after getting the transplant, chronically ill, etc. Patients on vents, with lines and tubes and drains all over the place, even with open surgical sites... they're all appropriate for therapy.

What physiotherapists definitely don't do:

Perform surgery or scrub up or observe or do anything even near the OR.

Give or adjust medications. I'm expected to know what medications do and look out for associated symptoms, but the most I can do is message the doctor and tell them what I'm observing.

Work with a crashing patient. It happens, you're in the middle of a session and a patient codes. Call the code and start performing CPR. But as soon as anyone else arrives, the therapist is the least qualified and least important person in the room. And if a therapist hears a code called, they're getting the hell out of the way to make space for the appropriate team to arrive.

Call time of death. Yes, patients die. Unfortunately, that's just how it goes. And yes, sometimes you come in to work only to learn that the patient you were working with yesterday passed away. But most of the time, if a patient is that close to dying, they're not appropriate for therapy. They're not dying in the therapist's arms or anything like that.

Use physical therapy as a stepping stone to become a doctor. There's not a ton of overlap tbh. I'm sure it has happened, but it's not like a PT degree is a degree that gets you into med school.

Listen, I LOVE my job. I get peed on, puked on, pooped on, etc. There are rude patients and emotional days and difficult conversations that need to be had, but at the end of the day I'm proud of being able to help people in need. You don't get into physical therapy if you don't love it. The pay isn't all that great and sometimes it's a very thankless job. Burn out rates are high, especially in the hospital setting. But those who stick it out are those who can't imagine doing anything else.

You have no idea how happy I was to see a character with my job who actually responds well to questions about it, so you can imagine how frustrating it is to constantly see my profession being overlooked or misinterpreted in the fandom.

Please, next time you go to respond to a post saying that you'd rather be stranded on a deserted island with Lucas because he's a doctor, or write a villa fic where Lucas talks about scrubbing in for surgery, keep this post in mind.

May I send in a dnn writing prompt👀

Dream and George comforting sapnap during his hair transplant recovery in their own unique ways :D

Sapnap coming out of his surgery and immediately being babied by Dream and bullied by George until Dream tells George to quit it and George sulks off, because he wanted to see Sapnap but he can't help but make fun of how weird he looks.

Dream props Sapnap up in bed, gets him comfortable and situated with the softest pillows and blankets that he prepared for him in advance. He sets up medicine and a water bottle next to his bed and gives him the gentlest kiss before letting him drift off to sleep. He's in and out for a while, sometimes hearing voices by his bedside, sometimes not. When he properly comes to, he chugs the water next to his bed before passing back out.

The next time he wakes, his mouth is dry again, and when he goes to get his water, he sees that it's missing. He's just about to text Dream when his door opens, George walking in with a now full water bottle. He freezes when he meets Sapnap’s eyes, and before Sapnap can even say thank you, George is telling him to shut up and that he just happened to notice it was empty and it'd be shitty of him to not fill it up.

George sits down on Sapnap’s bed and hands him the water, watching as he drinks.

"How long have I been out?" Sapnap asks

"Nearly two days."

Sapnap chokes. "Two days? No wonder I feel like shit."

"I said nearly. It's more like. A day and a half."

"Whatever. I'm gonna go pee." Sapnap stands and the room immediately starts spinning, George having to jump to steady him.

"You alright? Do you need help?"

"I can go to the bathroom by myself, thanks." Sapnap says sarcastically, but when he pulls out of George's grip it's gentle, and he steals a quick peck on George's cheek before hurrying off.

When Sapnap returns, he collapses back on his bed with a groan, his head still tingling uncomfortably and the wooziness returning already. George is watching him still, fiddling with his fingers.

"Do you...need anything else?"

"Mmm, I'm kind hungry but I'm too tired to eat."

George nods. "Ok. I can tell Dream."

"Thanks." Sapnap turns his focus to trying to get comfortable, wiggling around and tugging at his blankets until he just goes limp, useless. All the squirming around is making him feel worse.

"What are you doing? Idiot." George scoffs.

"Trying to get comfortable so I can sleep, idiot. But I feel gross and the blankets are all fucked up."

George scoffs again, but he moves towards Sapnap. He tugs the remainder of the blankets out from under Sapnap, then pauses.

"Do you want to change?" He asks slowly.

"...yeah. That'd be nice."

George drops the blankets, going to Sapnap's bureau and pulling out a comfy set of clothes and bringing them over to the bed. He sits down, gently taking one of Sapnap’s feet into his lap and carefully pulling his sock off, dropping it onto the floor and picking up the clean one to work over Sapnap’s foot. He repeats the process for his other foot, not speaking as he does so, fully concentrated on his task. Sapnap just watches in silence, not wanting to break the moment they've fallen under.

George then works his pants off, Sapnap lifting his hips to help when getting them off and the new ones on. George unzips Sapnap’s sweater next- he's just been in zip ups or button ups so he doesn't have to pull anything over his head- and peels that off of him before helping his arms into a new one and zipping him up again, patting the zipper as if satisfied with his work. He steps away, gathering up the blankets once more and pulling them up to Sapnap's chin, honestly tucking him in a little too securely but Sapnap keeps his mouth shut.

"All done." George says quietly, looking up and meeting Sapnap’s gaze. Their faces are close now, noses practically brushing. George doesn't move, and Sapnap still doesn't dare to speak. He's not sure he's even breathing.

George considers him, almost calculating. Looking for what, Sapnap isn't sure, but whatever it is Sapnap is glad for it because it results in George closing the gap between them with a long, indulgent kiss. Sapnap blames his surgery recovery period on why he doesn't push back, but instead melts beneath him, letting George take whatever he wants until he pulls away, satisfied.

"Get better quickly, idiot. I miss you."

Sapnap can't help it, he breaks out into a grin. "Aw, Georgie misses me."

George pushes away. "Shut up, just stop being bedridden, I'm bored. You still look stupid by the way."

"Love you too!" Sapnap calls as George closes the door a little too hard behind him. Still grinning, Sapnap snuggles further into bed, drifting off feeling warm and loved.

The next time Sapnap wakes he's being nudged, a soft voice calling his name.

"Dream." Sapnap murmurs, rubbing his eyes to force the sleep out of them.

"Hey Sap, sorry I know you were sleeping, but you need to eat."

The smell of homemade food hits Sapnap and suddenly he's alert, sitting up in bed eagerly. Dream chuckles. Sapnap chooses to ignore him.

"Thanks Dream, I'm starved." Sapnap reaches for the plate but Dream dodges. Sapnap glares at him. "What the fuck, dude."

"Let me. You just relax."

"I'm not a child, Dream, you don't have to spoon feed me my food."

Dream splutters, his face coloring slightly. "Wh- I- you just had surgery! So what if I want to baby you a bit? Plus, if you eat too fast you'll just upset your stomach."

Sapnap grumbles but relents, falling back against his propped up pillows. "Whatever, mom."

"Shut the fuck up and eat your dinner." Dream says without an ounce of venom behind it.

Dream's made him soft food, nothing that will strain his jaw too much and thus his temples. Mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, squash, beans. They chat causally, Dream filling Sapnap in on the past few days and Sapnap chiming in with how he's feeling in between the bites Dream gives him. He almost doesn't notice when the food is gone and Dream has put the plate down, his hands resting over Sapnap’s instead and running a soothing thumb back and forth across his knuckles.

There's a lull in the conversation, and Dream looks down, squeezing Sapnap’s hands before all at once pulling himself away, like he's forcing himself to leave Sapnap’s side.

"Alright, I'll let you rest." Dream smiles warmly, reaching for the plate to take with him.

"No, don't leave," Sapnap protests, drawing out each word into a dramatic whine, "cuddle me."

Dream laughs. "I have things to do, Sapnap, and you need-"

"Wow, denying me cuddles in my time of need. Some boyfriend you are."

"What! I just want you to recover!"

"And I need cuddles to recover! I feel like that should be obvious."

Sighing, Dream moves around to the other side of the bed, crawling in. Sapnap cheers, immediately scooting closer to Dream's side and snuggling in as best he can while staying comfortable. Dream loops an arm around him, squeezing tight.

"Get some rest, Sap." Dream leans down and kisses his nose. "I'll be here when you wake up."

You cannot be against “gender affirming care” if you’re against cis men having viagra, gynecomastia surgery, hip liposuction, testosterone injections/supplements, beard growth serum, hair transplants, jaw masculinization, and many more medical treatments and procedures that help cis men feel “more like a man”

If it’s care that makes you feel “more like a man,” and you are a man, then it’s gender affirming care, because that’s literally what gender affirming care is.

Gender affirming care is not exclusive to trans people, they just happen to be more likely to seek it.

Marcus’s lungs shuddered once, then inflated. They were thick with fluid. He lurched forward, mouth gaping open, desperately coughing the fluid up so he could breathe. A strap across his chest kept him tied down to the cot. He twisted, terrified, drowning in his own blood and serum. He went rigid when a hand grasped his jaw and forced it open – allowing a tube to dig into his throat.

He tried to scream. The tube made a noise like it was sucking the fluid right out of his lungs. Horror erupted in his chest as the air was sucked out of him, too. He coughed weakly. He couldn’t see anything; the world was a jagged streak of red and black. He writhed against the straps holding him down.

Then, miraculously, the tube retreated. He could breathe. He hacked up a mouthful of blood, but he could breathe. He sobbed and let his head drop back against the cot. Tears streamed from his eyes. Slowly, slowly, the light above him came into view. Behind it was the black sky.

Or the ceiling. He was inside.

He jolted and tried to look around. Agony shot through his chest. He froze, sweat beading on his brow, as his eyes darted around the room. It was small, looking more like a rusted-out closet than anything else. Straps held his chest and hips down to the cot he was lying on. Handcuffs chained his wrists to the cot as well.

He blinked, desperately trying to clear his vision. Someone stood over him – someone with red hair. Kate, that was her name. The military guy’s wife. She held a tube in her hand that was stained with blood. She stared down at him like she was staring at a ghost.

There were two other people in the room. One was the kid, slumped in the corner, looking like he was passed out sleeping. The other—

“Blair,” he croaked.

She shot to her feet and crossed the small room in two strides. “Marcus,” she said, and dropped to her knees beside the cot.

“Careful,” Kate said, still holding the bloody suction tube in her hand like she was trying to ward him off with it. “He’s—”

“He’s tied down,” Blair said as she took Marcus’s hand in hers. “He’s fine.”

“Why…” Marcus swallowed hard. His throat fucking hurt. His chest felt like it had been carved open. “Why am I tied down?”

“In case you, um… didn’t come back… yourself,” Kate said uncomfortably.

Marcus looked from Blair to Kate. “Why am I back? Is Connor—”

“He’s fine,” Blair said, gently cupping Marcus’s cheek. “They did the surgery. He’s fine. Let’s… just worry about you, right now.”

Marcus’s breaths quickened. He knew he should feel his heartrate increase with the news – but he couldn’t feel his heartbeat at all. He couldn’t feel it in his chest, couldn’t hear in it his ears. Still, his chest ached like they really had cut him open and taken it out. He… he remembered…

“What do you mean?” he rasped. “What do you mean, you did the surgery? How am I still here? How am I… still me, if I was… dead?”

“John made a… well, it’s like a tiny pump,” Kate said, finally putting the suction tubing down. “He made it after he felt well enough to sit up. Then I installed it. Then you needed a transfusion. Well, a few.” She chewed her lip. “You lost… pretty much all your blood.”

“Who…?” Marcus’s eyes went straight to Blair’s.

“Not me,” Blair said, staring at the blanket. “We’re not compatible. It was the kid.” She lifted her chin to Kyle where he lay curled up in the corner. “Took a while for him to get his reserves back. And… he was the only one willing to donate, for now.”

Marcus’s eyes widened. “How long have I been out?” he croaked.

Blair met his eyes again. “Two weeks,” she said quietly. “It’s been… you’ve been dead for two weeks.”
