Other health issues
Dear Robin,
I tripped and fell on my wrist two days ago, and it’s getting pretty swollen. But it doesn’t hurt a whole lot. I haven’t gone to the hospital yet because I feel like they’re all pretty busy with flu patients and the whole pandemic thing. Do you have any suggestions for at-home remedies to heal a probably fractured wrist? Or should I just go to the emergency room?
Sincerely,
Wondering about my wrist
Hello,
Well, if a bunch of people from my high school grad class are right, then paying a large sum of money to get a few tiny bottles of essential oils will solve any issue you may have. Fractured wrist? Put some lemon oil in your essential oil diffuser. Eyesight getting worse? Rub a couple of drops of lavender oil into your eyes. Have the coronavirus? Just wash your hands with Thieves hand soap. Their products will definitely cure all your problems including your wrist, plus ruin all your friendships because that’s how pyramid schemes work.
Cheers.
Robin
Separation anxiety
Dear Robin,
Since I’m home so much now, my dog is starting to think this is the new normal and is getting crazy attached to me. I’m scared that when school and work go back to what they were before, she’ll have a lot of separation anxiety. What should I do to try and prevent this?
Sincerely,
Dog super mom
Hello,
Yes, this is a very real possibility. Start distancing yourself from your dog by having her go for a walk with a drone while you work because animals can’t get emotionally attached to robots. Easy.
