RE: Steemit Webcomics Funny Comic Strip Contest Week #10:Feminist Heroes for Hire

I miss you too! 💗 Dang @lildebbiecakes, I can see you being a tough lady! It's great how the times are changing! I mean not all women want to work at a factory, but there are ones that do, and the pay and benefits are usually great. I'm glad that women are getting more opportunities. You and your husband have quite the life! That's awesome all the stuff you have done.

Yea, I had a hard time coming up with something too, I really wanted to do one though. If I had started sooner I had a lot more ideas lol but I do like the idea behind this one. Yea, I mean, I work with people with special needs now, and I do like it. I did the athletic program and the workforce program, which actually I take clients to factories to work haha, ironic. They are great workers. Another thing about nursing homes is when the residents would pass away. I think that's about the time I decided I couldn't work in that kind of place. The first one that passed away just tore my heart. My mom still works in a nursing home and she has thicker skin than me about that. It's a hard job all around.

Yea, I've been in and out of here a lot lately. Seems like things keep popping up and before I know it it's been a week or two. Recently my grandfather has been in and out of the hospital. He wouldn't have been "in and out" so much if he weren't so stubborn, he kept getting the doctor to release him early! He went in for an infection in his hand, it was bad, and being a diabetic they were thinking surgery. Well, he went home early, got a bad stomach bug, and got so dehydrated he went back in with kidney failure. That was a huge scare! We weren't sure if it was permanent he got bad fast. But, fortunately he got back kidney function and they don't think dialysis is needed so now he's back home. Him and my grandma are so stubborn!!! Lol My mom and I are always keeping an eye out they'll let things go until it's bad, they aren't even that old really, they're in their mid sixties.

Hope all is well @lildebbiecakes

Hi dear friend! Ok this is weird, my dad who’s eighty two , he lives near Seattle Washington, just had a toe amputated because of diabetes. He as well as your grandpa got a bad infection in one of his toes( he’s prone to getting ingrown tails) and he never told anyone about it until his toe turned black and started withering away! He’s stubborn and didn’t want to go to the doctor. Rick’s going out to Seattle on the bus to help him for a few weeks to get him on a schedule. He listen to Rick. Dads lived with a gal out there for thirteen years, they’ve never married. She’s much younger than him thank God and in good physical shape. Very STUBBORN old man! So you and I’ve been going through the same thing. Wow we’re blessed they never died. Don’t you think that’s a little ironic friend? I haven’t been as regular as I’ve been on Steemit, I’ve had things going on also, and the weathers getting good too YEAH! It got 72 degrees today @renascence isn’t that awsome? I’m so happy you replied nice hearing what’s happening with you. Take care❣️
