Diagnose de Wild gemist? Start met kijken op NPO Start

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/11/12

Het verhaal van Ruud lijkt veel op dat van mij. De reden van de spoedoperatie was anders, en hij is inmiddels alweer – op een andere manier dan vroeger – aan het werk . Al duurt het iets langer, dat laatste gaat mij ook lukken.

Zelf werk ik ook aan een verhaal met de werktitel “You got one partial life left: let’s talk about poo and pee”, misschien zelfs wel in de vorm van een speech voor op conferenties en workshops. Want hoe eerder je erbij bent, hoe hoger de kans op beter worden.

Ruud’s verhaal is er al, en daar ben ik blij om.

Kijken dus: [Wayback/Archive] Diagnose de Wild gemist? Start met kijken op NPO Start

Begin dit jaar krijgt Ruud de Wild te horen dat hij darmkanker heeft. ‘Als ik hier goed uitkom, dan ben ik verplicht om dit verhaal te vertellen’. Dat nam Ruud zich voor toen hij de diagnose kreeg.

NB: Testen zonder afspraak kan sowieso op de XL teststraat op de Loevensteinse Randweg 110 te Schiphol.

Edit 20211119: de communicatie was kennelijk niet zo helder voor testen zonder afspraak (:

Frontiers | Autism, Joint Hypermobility-Related Disorders and Pain | Psychiatry

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/11/01

For my link archive:

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Joint Hypermobility-Related Disorders are blanket terms for two etiologically and clinically heterogeneous groups of pathologies that usually appears in childhood. These conditions are seen by different medical fields, such as psychiatry in the case of ASD, and musculoskeletal disciplines and genetics in the case of hypermobility-related disorders. Thus, a link between them is rarely established in clinical setting, despite a scarce but growing body of research suggesting that both conditions co-occur more often than expected by chance. Hypermobility is a frequent sign of hereditary disorders of connective tissue (e.g. Ehlers-Danlos syndromes, Marfan syndrome), on which the main characteristic is the multisystem fragility that prone to proprioceptive and motor coordination dysfunction hence to trauma and chronic pain. Considering the high probability that pain remains disregarded and untreated in people with ASD due to communication and methodological difficulties, increasing awareness about the interconnection between ASD and hypermobility-related disorders is relevant, since it may contribute to identify those ASD patients vulnerable to suffer from pain.

Legality of Dutch non-reanimation statements

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/10/22

For my link archive:

The above are legally binding, but not all medical personnel knows them  by heart.

The legal document is the hardest for the medics to find, so way easier are the badges or tattoos.

Abel Wang, a true legend, is gone.

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/07/30

Hopefully my response to his spouse was appropriate enough:

Thanks for this tribute. It’s amazing, lovely, wonderful, all at the same time.

Abel is one of the persons that I would have loved to meet in real life.

I’m forever grateful that Scott Hanselman got me into touch with Abel Wang. Abel informed and motivated me. After that we stayed in touch every now and then about being ill and how to deal with that.

I had to contemplate for a while as this hit me harder than I thought, especially given the “always positive Abel” he is in my – and many others’ – minds.

So to all his close ones: remember the positivity and try to be like that. Abel expects that from us.

Glad I could send him some good thoughts last week, and miss him already.
