My name is Arianne.
I'm a mother, a wife, a sister, a friend.
I have serious health conditions that cause severe pain.
I and others like me deserve access to the medications we need for quality of life.
Our stories matter.
We deserve to live.

@LilyCrue@MHPoison1 Totally understandable. And likely safer than them being outside, without care, and eaten alive themselves.
I know you'll take good care of them, and yourself. The Wondercide is a little pricey but it works REALLY well for environmental control maybe for the future.
@LilyCrue@MHPoison1 I haven't, I would assume it's relatively safe if it's not an essential oil, but with little ones you do always have to be careful with possible allergies or reactions as their immune systems are fragile. These little ones need some extra TLC for sure. ๐
@LilyCrue@MHPoison1 Hey Lily, while bathing kittens isn't fun, if the water is warm they might tolerate it wash them with a little Dawn should drown most of the fleas making them easier to comb or wash out. Dilute Wondercide on comb might work but they are really young, so I'd try the bath first.
Not sure what coming back to Twitter will look like for me. I've been missing everyone, missing advocacy, but I really haven't missed the stress.
Major applause for the boots on the ground efforts over the last week in D.C. ๐๐๐

@plwin49 It's a photo with an artistically placed raven. Took me an hour to get the blending just right. LOL Was happy with the end result though. ๐
@BarbKaplitz Trying something different, since stepping back from daily online advocacy. We'll see if it works out. โบ๏ธ Hope you're doing okay Barbara. Big hugs ๐ค๐
Doctors treating pain didn't kill my daughter. Policy did.

Coming here to let people know that Dee @Deeenst has passed away. I'm honored to have known Dee, and proud to have been her friend in this lifetime. My heart is broken, again.

Frank Aiello's daughter, Kristin, was hospitalized due to medical crisis-
Frank posted this morning that Kristin has passed.
The heartbreaking, slow burn, collective obituary of people in pain tragically continues...
I pray for Kristin, her family, for all of us.

Another friend and pain patient advocate has passed.
Leah Brumbelow-Westerfield died a few weeks ago.
Pain community posts over the years have become a slow burning, collective obituary.
Too many friends and loved ones lost. ๐
In memory of Leah.
