Adolin I'm so sorry for ever thinking you were nothing but an annoying shallow spoiled prince for WoK and like half of WoR, you are literally the offspring of a golden retriever and sunlight itself and we do not deserve you, you are a better person than the rest of the Alethi combined, storm their propriety and keep hugging your loved ones, and keep talking to your sword and styling your uniform and giving fashion advice to spirits and supporting & looking out for your friends suffering from mental illnesses & trauma and standing up for your little brother, you're doing amazing sweetie❤️

Petition to give Adolin his own Order of the Upcheerer of Depressed Radiants

Look if anyone can help my mom out I'd appreciate it. She was recently beaten badly by her husband (separated) and suffered brain damage and brain bleeding. As a result she's been left permanently half blind, suffers seizures, memory loss, greatly reduced mobility, and was already half deaf.

She needs money for food deliveries, rent, and to help her move into a new apartment (far away from her abusor).

She suffered a seizure while driving today (I know. But there's no one currently available to take care of her and has no money for a cab so she's been forced to drive to get her own food) and this is the final straw.

I'm rationing whatever money I have left to make sure I have food and make my bills until my unemployment kicks in, I can't even afford my own asthma meds and my own conditions have been progressively getting worse throughout the course of the pandemic. I can't help her.

Whatever you can give is enough. If you can't, please reblog. If you're interested in any exchange I do portraits and other comissions.

I had more accurated options for this one, but I really wanted to draw Dalinar in this scene.

Hey FYI the way they show CPR on TV isn't how it actually goes. They can't do proper CPR on actors because its dangerous to do it properly on someone whos heart is still beating, but that pathetic soft little gentle chest-press that you see on films and shows? And the way their shoulders move a lot? Yeah, nah.

CPR is hard work. You've got to press the persons chest down one third of the chests depth. Thats not something you can do by pressing gently on a chest. You have to have straight arms, lock your shoulders, and use your whole body weight to press down on the chest. And you have to do it fast. A great song to sing to get the pace right is Staying Alive by the Bee Gees. Easy to remember, because when you're pumping someone's chest to manually manipulate their heart you are gonna be begging that they stay alive.

I really cannot emphasise the importance of learning CPR enough. It's so important. Please learn it. Even if you dont have access to a proper course -- even if you just look some tutorials up on YouTube, and then practice the pumping action on your mattress, that would be better than nothing.

You dont even have to worry about mouth to mouth, if thats a concern for you; most CPR advice these days is to not bother with mouth to mouth unless there are two of you and you're both trained; the action of chest compressions works well enough to compress and expand the lungs that it sort of functions as a two-fer; it beats the heart and it pumps enough air through the lungs that you don't have to do the mouth to mouth part.

Please learn CPR. Please.

Just a reminder here:

Do NOT perform CPR on someone if their heart is beating normally. CPR is meant to kickstart the heart back into a regular rhythm, if someone has a normal heart beat, performing CPR on them can do them serious damage.

I’m not a medical professional but this is something that’s really emphasised in most CPR courses. If someone’s unconscious always always always check their pulse before performing CPR.

I’m gonna repeat that I’m not a medical professional but I’ve done a CPR course nearly every year for about six years now, so I’ll give you a few tips in case you need it and haven’t gotten a chance to learn.

Like op said, there’s some misconception about the depth you need to compress to so here’s a diagram:

you HAVE to push hard enough to compress the person’s heart through their chest. you WILL break ribs. (not your own obvs but still). my grandad was resuscitated from heart attacks and he had so many broken ribs it’s almost funny. seriously.

you want your elbows straight, hands one over the other and most of your body weight centered over your hands.

hands should be centered in the area circled. find your sternum on yourself. press the heel of your hand into the base of your sternum. that is where you need your hands to be when you do CPR. 

you can still find the sternum on a person with breasts. let me repeat that: you can still find the sternum on a person with breasts.

people with breasts tend to go without CPR because people are afraid of touching their breasts or something. if someone with breasts needs CPR chances are they’ll forgive you for potentially saving their life. if you can, practice finding the sternum on someone who does have breasts. (do this respectfully ofc, don’t be creepy) ask your mum, sister, close friend or partner, just so that you can confidently find the sternum.

ofc this obviously doesn’t replace a proper CPR course and I’m not a medical professional, so if you have the choice: always get someone who is trained to do the CPR, and if you’re not confident call an ambulance.

the best thing you can do if you aren’t trained or confident is call for help.

As a firefighter with comprehensive EMT training, this is all wonderfully true. 

The entire point of CPR is to get the heart pumping enough that the brain is kept oxygenated until the ambulance or other emergency aid arrives. If at all possible, elevate the head a small bit, about 15 to 30 degrees. Usually a small pillow will do. This isn’t entirely necessary but it is helpful. Helpful enough that in about 1/20th of the times I’ve had to do it, they’ve regained consciousness. 

While the Bee Gee’s Staying Alive is a fantastic rhythm to pace your CPR efforts, the Baby Shark Song is slightly faster and more efficient. There are numerous videos for this online not only for the song but how to use the song for CPR. 

Please watch tutorials, take a class if possible, and remember that you have the power to help people when it matters most and to save lives.

...we finally found the use for Baby Shark.

(In all seriousness, this is great stuff).

Seriously. A friend in college had her ribs broken *during training* because the teacher told them the proper amount to push, *and then failed to warn them about doing it on healthy people.*

I fucking broke the dummy cuz I was compressing that hard and the instructor said "good"

This is all fantastic info! Also important thing to remember, going back to that diagram of the rib cage and where to place your hand on the sternum is super super important and no one’s mentioned it yet!

DO NOT PLACE THE CENTER OF YOUR HAND AT THE BASE OF THE STERNUM. I REPEAT. DO NOT PLACE YOUR HANDS THAT LOW.

If you place your hands too low, there’s a chance you could break off the tip of the sternum called the xiphoid process! Which could pierce something vital and just not be a good situation! The link below gives you a step by step guide with how to figure out placement, but like they all said, it’s usually pretty easy to feel where the sternum ends so you know where to avoid:

But like op said, literally your first step is to make sure someone’s calling 911, because you can keep someone alive until help comes with CPR, but the chances of them coming back without higher level medical assistance is slim.

So proud of my mother for doing her own research after I sent her that meme. A sign she hung in her car window.

Stay woke

Is this true?

Not only is it true, it gets worse. The Susan G Komen For The Cure Foundation has actually successfully sued “competing” charities, because (paraphrasing) their “message or branding was infringing.”

You read that correctly: they took money that people had donated to cure cancer, and hired attorneys with it, to sue ANOTHER group of people trying to find a cure for cancer, who, in turn, had to us their donated money to hire their own legal counsel to defend themselves.

Yeah signal boost because not enough people know about this and seriously FUCK SUSAN G. KOMEN THEY ARE THE ACTUAL WORST

Also please never forget the pink fracking drill bit

that’s right fracking you know, a process using chemicals known to cause cancer that leech into the water supply

It’s that time of year again, please remember Komen is the actual worst

Komen For The Cure is pretty much awful.

My mother died in 1996 from breast cancer. Most cancer charities are scams, in that people throw fancy parties and get rich off them and very little money goes into research or support for patients. Here are some vetted cancer charities that get good scores on Charity Navigator and pay medical expenses or fund research:

Breast Cancer Research Foundation

Cancer Research Institute

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

63 four star rated cancer charities on charity navigator

Another great organization. The founder is actually my old classmate’s Mom who is a survivor of breast cancer. I believe this one is specific to the Philadelphia Area.
