problematize* education policy
7:01 am
Lizlin

Guess so - I had the 7 after it so knew it must be similar - just had to find the right ending.
7:01 am
sprite

could you tell me a bit more, carlee? That went kind of over my head, sorry :(
7:02 am
Lizlin

Interesting but not sure I understand it.
7:04 am
carleekat

ok..traditionally pop culture has more or less absorbed colonial language and stereotypes... society, government, popular opinion and consumerism feed this pop culture beast and the thing evolves and moves ( I think of it as a giant amoeba)... but now with the advent of social media, crowdfunding and so forth pop culture is now beingused as a tool by the colonised to challenge the discourse that can act to shape education policy

Oh no - Carlee's clue - sorry. Thanks Carlee
7:08 am
carleekat

ok... here is an example... in canada.. we have a tradition in policy ( particularly education) that our first nations people are only smart enough to get a high school degree.. and the language of policy still reflects that... but with social media.. artists, television shows, pod casts, you tube, hip hop artists,and authors are challenging those ideas with their artifacts and proving ed policy wrong... they have their own ideas about education and what that means... and sooner or later those ideas become more mainstream challenging the stereotypes

So, how are things going for you, Ruby?

Hmmm. What is the diagnosis on your cancer?
1:10 pm
bichon

Hi ruby. How goes it
1:10 pm
rubyfoo

it's metastasized breast cancer (25 yrs old) IN MY STERNUM AND RIB, BUT MY ONCOLOGIST SAYS IT'S TREATABLE
1:10 pm
rubyfoo

sorry, didn't mean to shout
1:11 pm
Judi

S'okay. Wow. Scarey, but good to know they can treat it. Chemo? Radiation? Surgery? All of the above?
1:11 pm
rubyfoo

I've been watching the Tour, so it's not bad

so 6/27, pls

I'll know next week and hopefully it will be soon. I'm tired of the pain
1:15 pm

So Ruby, why pessimistic about your husband?
1:16 pm
Judi

Sorry to hear not so good news on your husband's part. Sorry if I'm making you repeat any of your latest news.
1:16 pm
rubyfoo

He's getting worse very fast and it is very hard to get him to cooperate with a care situation. How did you manage it, Molly?
1:17 pm
MollyL

Well, I did not have a live in situation with my Dad. Once it was clear that he couldn't live unassisted, and that my Mom couldn't manage his care, my sister and I got him into a place that could care for him.
1:19 pm
rubyfoo

I'm taking him to see the local place tomorrow and for a total evaluation on Thursday. There's a twice-a-week day care possibility, if I can get him in
1:19 pm
MollyL

As for cooperating, he was VERY resistant to it at first. But we had to get him somewhere that he would be safe and that would give him the best treatment possible.
1:19 pm
Judi

Is a nursing home an option yet, Ruby?
1:20 pm
rubyfoo

The local nursing home has a day car plan but they may not accept him because of his poor language skill
1:21 pm
MollyL

I don't know Ruby. My first reaction to that is that it is unacceptable. He should not be denied care because of his language ability.
1:22 pm
rubyfoo

I've been in my studio for about 30 minutes and he has telephoned me about 10 times and been down here twice and to the kitchen 4 times while I was cleaning up
1:22 pm
Judi

?? That sounds odd. Nursing homes here a full of residents who cannot speak due to stroke or other disability.
1:22 pm
rubyfoo

You're right, I hadn't thought of it that way
1:23 pm
Judi

Obviously he's still mobile.
1:23 pm
rubyfoo

He is smothering me and sapping my energy
1:24 pm
MollyL

People with declining mental abilities become child like. The kind of behavior you just described is typical of a child, who needs lots of attention when their caregiver is otherwise occupied.

Ruby, it is a hard decision to make. But when you have run out of options, and I think you have due to your health concerns, it becomes time to move someone to an assisted care facility. No one wants to do it, but it needs to be done nonetheless.
1:26 pm

I have to agree with Molly, Ruby.
1:26 pm

I agree and am trying to get his daughter to come back and help me with this
1:27 pm

Where does his daughter live?
1:28 pm

Oh Ruby, I feel bad for you. His daughter has been there, your son has been there and it seems they are not very helpful. Maybe the daughter will figure out a way to manage this, this time.

4:25 pm
harpjane

nah, we're debating. we would have to drive 50 miles, or go to the emergency room, or wait until tomorrow.
4:26 pm
TraderKate

it may help to hold a pillow against chest... reduces the movement during inhalation. you really should get an xray, incase anything else is affected...
4:27 pm
Bugsaw

oooh jane. I had broken ribs and they hurt a lot because they can't be stablized properly.
4:27 pm
Bugsaw

problem is, they could pierce a lung or something else valuable in there so a doctor and an xray are VERY important.
4:27 pm

ERs are usually a bit quieter at dinner time.

He's a big wimp because he never has any pain. He was amazed at how much I knew about moving, etc. when you are in pain.....
4:33 pm
harpjane

But this is truly bothering him.
4:34 pm
Bugsaw

remind him it will get worse during the night because you move in your sleep and that sets it off again. it is also when punctures could happen before he fully wakes up
4:35 pm
ch1212

Harp, I think it's okay if you call the doctor and say you are needing some information and reassurance, because he wants to wait, and you're concerned. That way you get the info you need, and if the doc says he needs to come in now, you can hand the phone to your beloved.
4:35 pm
Bugsaw

I sure wish you both well in whatever decision you make. A broken rib does hurt
4:35 pm
Bugsaw

but a punctured lung hurts more

My poor nephew. When he got married, his wife's bridesmaids decorated their honeymoon suite and put lots of candles in there for atmosphere. My nephew said the candles smelled like dirty socks.
7:51 pm
cosdem

why would anyone do that lol.. ruins the mood... hmm maybe thats why

well jes, if you don't get my comment then you ARE missing something vital - the works of one Mr. PG Wodehouse.

9:13 pm

9:29 pm
mrpresident

I have several friends who just refuse to live with flatmates... too many bad situations.
one friend of mine is so keen on having a waterfront view, he takes in flatmates that end up causing a lot of problems. Latest one thinks she can come into his bedroom and ask for 'favours' LOL! whether is is alone or with someone. Just frightening!
9:30 pm
cosdem

probem is hes ryans brother so hes family which complicates things
9:34 pm

that's rough
11:13 pm
stidmama

is it more expensive there?
11:13 pm
Jadeomoan

Depends on where you look. Closer to the college, it's expensive!! But if you look in the outlying areas in the 'burbs....it's more manageable.
11:16 pm

sounds normal
11:17 pm

The apartment here is 95% packed already, in anticipation of the move...but now we just need a place to move into!! LOL.
