Just got out of a week intubated in the icu (not outta the woods but on the mend) and had lost my ability to walk I felt proud of being able to walk around as a fat person so I was embarrassed and described myself as ”weak as a newborn kitten” but when I thought about it I realized kittens come out pretty darn weak but they’re designed to develop into killing machines whch they do in short order yeah I got this. No plans to kill any one just, metaphors have power

Metaphors have power, and also I'm not surprised that someone who just got out of a week intubated in the ICU is having trouble with something they could do before they went in. Much as they might like, the doctors don't have a magical "cure everything" potion.

You got out of the ICU, that's a triumph in itself! Enjoy your evolution into a powerful meso-predator!

Kittens are amazing, especially when they're (metaphorically!) firey.

Hi, that's a hell of a lot. Very glad you are mending. I have known folks who had that similar experience of losing strength.

Kittens are the best actually

Oh, HONEY. Go you. And it's not a matter of whether you WOULD kill anything, it's that you CAN. Strength to your elbow, or your hind paws, or everything. P.
