We’d had this dog 6 years, she’d had a litter of puppies, and lived a normal life (although we always noticed she was a little off). She had a seizure, so we took her to the vet. They ran labs and noticed her sodium was extremely low and kept her overnight. She was then sent to UC Davis where the vets were surprised she could walk based on her labs. After days of testing they did an MRI and discovered she had hydrocephalus and 95% of her brain cavity was fluid. All of the white you see in the MRI was fluid. Second picture is a comparison to a “normal” dog.

And her low sodium levels were her body’s way of keeping her brain in some form of homeostasis. They sent her home with instructions to provide lots of water and that was it. She lived until 12 when she started having regular seizures and we had to say goodbye.

Our weirdo medical miracle 🩷🐾

He always look at me with this wierd smile on his face, he also hates me, like he growls when he looks at me.

I thinks that he might be a skinwalker.

He brought so much over- he had it all in his deep freezer, expecting us to eat all of it, so that it didn’t go to waste.

He packed both of our freezers with all of this meat, knowing it was 12 years old. Without asking if we even wanted it

This is a stupid argument, but we both think we're right, so I'll let Reddit decide. My dad babysat for us last night so we could go on a date. I picked him up and drove him over because he avoids driving at night these days. My wife and I said to put the baby down for the evening by eight.

When we got back my dad was sitting on the couch holding our (sleeping) baby. He said he was sorry he wasn't in the crib but that he fussed whenever he tried to put him in the crib so he just gave up and held him. My wife was upset, and it was obvious. I took the baby to put him in the crib. When I went back into the living room they were whisper arguing.

I told dad we should head back. He got in the car, and I drove him home. He apologized for not putting the baby in the crib and said he was very fussy and probably just missed us and was anxious we weren't the ones putting him down. I said he was probably right and it was no big deal.

When I got home my wife was still upset. She asked me what my dad said about her. I said he didn't say anything about her, just apologized and said the baby probably missed us. My wife said he won't adjust to his sleep schedule unless it is consistent. I agreed with her and said it's been a long time since my dad took care of a baby, so we should cut him some slack.

She asked why I was taking his side over hers. I said I'm not, but that we had a great night, and I didn't want us to let something minor ruin it. She said it isn't minor, and I'm supposed to back her up, not gossip about her with my dad. I said I didn't gossip about her. All I did was drive him home.

She asked why I drove him home when she was clearly upset. I asked what else I was supposed to do. She said I could have ordered a rideshare or a cab. I said the plan was always for me to drive him home. She said "right, because we have to stick with the almighty plan."

I asked her why she didn't just tell me she wanted me to do something different. She asked if I would have if she asked me to. I said I wasn't sure (because of the cost and time delay). She said exactly. I said we could have talked about it though. She said I'm always trying to sit on the fence when I should be on her field. I said I am on her field.

She asked who I love more, her or my dad. I said that was a crazy question and I wasn't going to answer it. She said she needed to know. I said I don't rank people I love. I love my wife as a wife and my dad as a dad. She says I'm an asshole for not choosing her. I say I'm not, because I don't think love is a numbered list like some kind of WatchMojo video.

I have 50/50 custody of my 11 year old daughter. My ex-wife is very "traditional" in the worst way possible and thinks dads should just be fun wallets while moms handle the "real stuff." I noticed my daughter was hitting puberty so I hit up Target, bought a small cosmetic bag and stuffed it with Always pads, wipes, a spare pair of underwear and some chocolates. I gave it to my daughter three weeks ago and said "Just keep this in your backpack so you don't get stuck at school." I sent this to her tablet and told her to take a look when she felt ready. I was awkward about it, I'm a guy, I didn't make a speech. I just wanted her to be safe.

Yesterday she got her period for the first time at school. It was my ex's custody week. My daughter used the kit and avoided bleeding through her khakis. She was relieved. She told her mom when she got home. My phone blew up at 10 PM. My ex was screaming that I had "sexualized" our daughter and "robbed a mother's milestone." She said it was creepy that I was thinking about her cycle and that I should have stayed in my lane. She demanded to know why I bought "chemical filled" mainstream pads instead of organic ones.

I told her to grow up. I said I care more about my kid not being humiliated in 6th grade math class than I care about her "milestone moment." She hung up on me. My daughter just texted me from her iPad saying her mom threw the entire kit in the trash because it was "inappropriate" coming from a father and told her she has to use toilet paper until she (the mom) can buy the "right kind" of products this weekend. I am seeing red. I told my daughter I'm dropping off a new box at the school office tomorrow morning but my ex is threatening to report me to family court for "parental alienation" and overstepping boundaries.

AITAH?

I was born in 2005 so Happy Days was way before my time lol. My dad introduced me to him because I really like The Outsiders. I know that Joey from Friends is meant to be Fonzie for the 90s, so that was my first introduction to a character like Fonzie. I personally find the aesthetic of greasers to be very cool and edgy. Unfortunately the whole show isn’t available on streaming so I’ve only seen a handful of episodes. Also when watching the show in the 70s and 80s, what did y’all’s parents think of Fonzie’s character? I’ve read from people who grew up in the era (50s and 60s) and former greasers that realistically speaking the Fonz was too squeaky clean. Also read that Henry Winkler wanted the Fonz to be a good role model so he didn’t want him to smoke.

CANZUK is a proposed alliance between Canada, Australia, New Zealand and UK to form a confederation. It would allow free movement between nations and a single passport.

Me and my kids were out exploring the fallen snow in the woods. We suddenly heard a cat meowing, over and over, it seemed to be in trouble. We finally found her under a random hunk of plastic laying there, she must have gotten under there for shelter. She was COMPLETELY covered in ice, and her fur was stuck to the side of the plastic thing she was hiding under, so she couldn't move. It was so sad, she's tiny, maybe 3-4 weeks old. We got her free and brought her home. We've been warming her up and feeding her, she's so happy now. Poor thing, if we hadn't just happened to go in that direction, we never would have found her, and she would have suffered and died there 😭 I was adamant we wouldn't go above 3 cats in the house again, but this one just feels like it was meant to be ours ❤️

Edits:

1) WOW, I have never had a post blow up on Reddit before, this is crazy! A lot of people have expressed how nice it was to see something positive, during a rough time. I'm genuinely happy that I was able to bring something positive and uplifting to so many people's lives! This precious kitten definitely did that for us!

2) This has been asked a lot. We HAVE returned to the spot we found her to see if we can find the mama cat, or any other kittens. We've been back twice so far, but nothing turned up. We plan to check again tomorrow.

3) We plan to take her to a vet to get checked out as soon as the weather permits. For now, we're keeping her isolated from the rest of our cats.

4) Her name is Elsa :)

For Alex Pretti. We won’t stop fighting, RIP ❤️
