So the university’s explanation to me is basically : we have a lot of organs we are working on and we will go with whichever ones have funding behind them. They applied multiple times for grants for turbinates but got rejected. They did get approved for livers and kidneys though I believe due to it’s more widespread need. So that’s why I’m kind of in this situation. Thank you for reading my story ♥️

You are a plague on humanity and really need to grow up. Good thing Daddy saved the day, as without him you'd be where you belong. Try to learn from this and realize nearly everyone on the planet hates people like you, and for a very good reason. And this is coming from someone who's primarily a carnivore.

I understand you’re concerned but it’s opposition like this that is the reason for downplaying patients’ suffering with empty nose syndrome in the first place. I’m free to share my story and ask for advice. How else are people with medical conditions that have no cure supposed to go about solving it if they don’t ask the public for help? Clearly doctors and lawyers aren’t doing anything. I’m basically relying on empathy from strangers and researchers at this point to keep going. I can ask for advice..

My family has a similar story. My great aunt kept her salt in the sugar shaker for some odd reason, so when my mom made a cup of coffee for my grandpa at great aunt's house, mom dumped in his usual portion of "sugar" from the shaker. Grandpa took a big gulp, spat it out, and (jokingly) accused my mom of trying to poison him. They went back to the kitchen and figured out that it was salt in the shaker.

He also quietly never let her make him a cup of coffee again for the rest of his life.
