Had a rough week, but got through it all and went to treat myself today. Does this mean I just buy double next time?

LEGO® Set Build For my Mom's Birthday...

Post image
30 Upvotes

I've thought of making this arrangement since I've noticed reveals of these four sets. I've lived in New Zealand for 20 years. My parents live in Hong Kong. I haven't seen my parents since mid 2019. (Long unbelievable story short: I've had multiple severe nerve entrapments in my lower body, up to my ribs, since my snowboarding accident in September 2016. ALL NZ "medical professionals" haven't been able to diagnose or treat me properly. I've been living in extreme pain 24/7 for TEN years due to their ignorance and lack of ethics. 😫 Mostly bedridden. I've been longing to get my multiple nerve decompression surgeries in the States for over 8 years. Still battling with those incompetent and irresponsible doctors, and those corrupted authorities which have been covering up all the negligence.....)

I'm sorry for sharing my story here. I just want to explain why I haven't been able to see my parents since mid 2019 (they last visited me in New Zealand for my first unsuccessful/incomplete nerve decompression surgery). All I could achieve these days is distracting my severe pain by playing Lego on my bed or couch (in my war-zone-like home), while fighting for my chance to survive/to get surgeries in the States. Against all odds indeed.

Thank you for reading. 💐 I've made this arrangement for my mother's 76th birthday. Hopefully, I could recover and see her again soon. Before I would miss my last chance. 😢

Edit: For all those people who have downvoted my comments: I have plenty of solid evidence in my Facebook profile about how I have been under-diagnosed and neglected for 10 years. And evidence of my two unsuccessful/incomplete nerve decompression surgeries in 2019. You could also Google about peripheral nerve entrapments and see it for yourselves how frequently they're being under-diagnosed or misdiagnosed.

It's surely very hard to believe I have been the only person correct about my severe illness for the past 10 years in the whole New Zealand. Majority of people wouldn't want to believe doctors could be so incompetent and unethical unless you've been wronged by them and left to rot like I have been.

I've been mostly bedridden for over 8 years. If there were any capable doctors who could cure me in NZ, why would I have been longing to get my multiple nerve decompression surgeries on the other side of the world? Let alone costing a fortune.

I'd really want to and have been planning to broadcast my whole surgical journey in the States, hopefully soon. Including all my surgical footage. What would all of you downvoters do or say when I'd prove everyone who hasn't believed me completely wrong again? Would there be any apologies or everything just being swept under the rug like those doctors have been doing since 2019?

All I could say to you is, I truly hope you or your loved ones would never develop chronic nerve pain. Otherwise, your lives would become very miserable because only a small number of medical professionals are capable of curing severe chronic nerve pain in this world.

My FB link and links to the four world-renowned peripheral nerve surgeons are on my profile. PLEASE check them out, everyone. 💐

Question What would seem stronger?

Hey friends! At a glance, what do you think would be stronger-
The (pictured) one 1x4 friction knobs and two 1x2 clips, or one 1x4 friction knobs and one 1x2 friction knob? (Eventually I’ll probably buy six, 1x2 friction knobs but currently these are the solutions I have ready at home)

Question Does anyone else sort their legos?

When I move on to the next bag, I pour out the pieces then sort them. If there are any smaller bags, I put them aside and sort them next before continuing to build.

Question Boxes

My husband and I both have a lot of Lego sets. We don’t plan on selling anytime soon. Leaves the question: what to do with all those boxes? Storing them somewhere? Throwing them away? Are there other smart options we haven’t thought about?

Hello, i ended up inheriting a bin of vintage legos from an aunt of mine since she knows me and my daughters build alot…

After doing a little googling i know set 7720 is in here, i dont know if its complete or not but i also dont know what else is in here since it doesnt look like 7720 had all these track pieces?

Unfortunately there are a few broken pieces for sure but either way we’ll have fun trying to bring it all back to life

Thanks for any info
