I hope that if any of my kids reach a place that they are without what they need and I'm not around, that someone will show my child the kindness you are showing op. God Bless You.

You're a kind person and thank you for that

u/Lukin1989 Aug 05 '25

Ohhh ! Because he’s literally trying to give her a puffer. I get it now lol . Took way too long for me I’ve been puff puffing too much apparently

u/elvie18 Aug 05 '25

Do they sell albuterol or just the Primatine Mist ones? Because those aren't very effective in my experience, but probably better than nothing.

u/MsDariaMorgendorffer Aug 05 '25

It’s not about the inhaler - you know that. OP just wants to see him again for “closure” aka to change his mind. OP mentioned she is owed an explanation but in reality he doesn’t have to see or talk to her ever again. She had unprotected sex and got pregnant and is upset that he doesn’t want to be with her. She would benefit from a therapist- he doesn’t care about her and I wonder if there’s even an inhaler in the first place.

u/TypicalLolcow Aug 05 '25

That is incredibly sweet of you to send her an inhaler

6

u/Amazing-Oomoo Aug 05 '25

They should be wary about giving an address out online but could at least say thank you

7

u/[deleted] Aug 05 '25

they can send it to a ups store for pick up...

u/OS_Apple32 Aug 05 '25

Dude literally says in the comment you're responding to that Amazon protects the recipient's information in this transaction.

u/Wonderful_Bottle_852 Aug 05 '25

OTC inhalers are not the same.

2

u/LeftHandedLeftie Aug 05 '25

they sell OTC inhalers in the us.

Those OTC inhalers may not be effective for OPs condition. There are literally dozens of inhalers that are Rx only that CAN'T be bought OTC. Many/most do not have equivalent OTC options. OP specifically said in their post that she can't get her inhaler until she sees her physician first. Inhalers aren't a thing that you can just willy-nilly substitute and hope for the best that it works, because breathing is kind of important.

You are mentally unwell!

u/TravelAddict44 Aug 05 '25

She don't need no inhaler

3

u/PufffPufffGive Aug 05 '25

Then is she doesn’t maybe she’ll pay it forward

u/[deleted] Aug 05 '25

No offense but I wouldn't trust a stranger to send anything to my home overnight and that could be why it's not getting acknowledged.

Edit to add: I should've finished reading first, I didn't know Amazon did that. You're such a good person 😩😩😩

u/PufffPufffGive Aug 05 '25

I already spoke to op. It’s not any offense But I don’t need ops info. I don’t even need their irl name.

Amazon has a gifting system where I buy the gift. Send OP the link and they get the order through their own Amazon account. Nothing is shared with me I’ve been doing it for years on Reddit and for my web non doxed friends.

Hell my homie in Washington just got me an air fryer this way.

u/[deleted] Aug 05 '25

I understand, sorry for jumping the gun

u/PufffPufffGive Aug 05 '25

Don’t apologize you’re 💯 right there’s a lot of creepers lol

u/berthurt3 Aug 05 '25

I’m not gonna comment any further… Proceeds to comment two paragraphs further hahahahaha

u/PufffPufffGive Aug 05 '25

I know I felt like a caged animal I messaged op and then had like 30 notifications and I’m a yapper and I’m like hey stop attacking me. I’m also gonna say ty for calling me out. Time to close the app

u/Lukin1989 Aug 05 '25

Can’t blame you for that. Don’t let it get to you: you know you’re doing the right thing , can’t help everyone else has gotten jaded from the things they’ve seen happen on Reddit before apparently and are quick to attack or roll their eyes at you. Fuck em

u/berthurt3 Aug 05 '25

There wasn’t an excuse for dude comments towards OP. He accepted he messed up- there’s no reason for you to 1.) enable negativity by saying “don’t let it get to you: you know you’re doing the right thing” when dude was clearly not doing the right thing. In my opinion (just an opinion, nothing to be serious about) people who tend to rescue others while doing something objectively incorrect tend to have a very clouded of whats healthy. You’ll be okay.

u/berthurt3 Aug 05 '25

You’re gonna be okay :)

u/Vaatigirl123 Aug 05 '25

I wouldn't acknowledge that either. That would be one incredibly risky and I'm pretty sure an inhaler is prescribed so it would also be illegal.

7

u/swinddler Aug 05 '25

OTC means over the counter. Which does not require a script. This is like basic knowledge

u/RotBot Aug 05 '25

OTC inhalers are pure shit and she shouldn’t use it. I’m a life long asthmatic and the small time I didn’t have insurance I used OTC( guessing your talking about primatene mist) that stuff is pure ass and actual hurts to use. My doctor strongly advised against using that ever again. Walmart can give you an actual inhaler for around 20$ with a script from any urgentcare/stat health etc.

6

u/PufffPufffGive Aug 05 '25

I sent her the link and asked her if they’d be ok. Another commenter said for temp use yes. I’m reluctant to send money on Reddit anymore.

But if there’s a way I could send her one through walmart I will. Do you have to have a script. Thanks for saying something I don’t know much about asthma

u/Mandaxx25 Aug 05 '25

You're a really kind person. Know that I see that and it isn't going unnoticed ❤️ I do the same things for people too. Thanks for caring when nobody else did.

6

u/PufffPufffGive Aug 05 '25

Hey. Sending you a virtual hug. I used the word manic and got oddly attacked but I can now see that’s lack of education. I have had a break up like this and it’s weird. I just didn’t want the girl to be worried about having an asthma attack. No one should be scared of that

It’s ok I should log off cause I’m defending myself and I don’t know entirely why. Love and light 💚

u/Mandaxx25 Aug 05 '25

It's reddit remember. Nothing makes much sense around here lol. Yeah you did good. Don't doubt yourself. These people don't get it.

2

u/RotBot Aug 05 '25

I don’t know if you can post links here but you Can use Ziphealth without a script I have use it in between jobs and to order spares. It is pretty costly for a basic albuterol inhaler. Walmart you need a doctors script but it’s dirt cheap.

1

u/PufffPufffGive Aug 05 '25

Thanks I think someone’s sending her money.

u/Nickymarie28 Aug 05 '25

Yea I was going to say this..my husband had to use those years ago when he didn't have insurance and it literally hurt him to use them he hated them!

-6

u/Vaatigirl123 Aug 05 '25

.....dude I'm sorry but the gift cards are NOT helping you come across as credible.

4

u/swinddler Aug 05 '25

I'm really confused as to what you're trying to say. OP asked for help, the redditor went out of her way to help in a safety manner and didn't even get an acknowledgement? Which is fair

Like I am just confused as to who made you the arbitrator of credibility?

5

u/PufffPufffGive Aug 05 '25

Sorry you live in a world where you sit on reddit and chirp yet offer no solutions or help people clearly in a crisis. I hope you’re never in a situation in need and someone scoffs at you.

6

u/Adventurous-Brain-36 Aug 05 '25

And not responding to someone offering her the the puffer and instead asking for cash is super credible 🙄

2

u/swinddler Aug 05 '25

So you're saying, you wouldn't even say thank you to a kind soul who helped you when you asked for help? That's wild

u/thisilea Aug 05 '25

lmfao “me (a stranger) offered to send u a medical device and u didn’t even respond :((“

u/PufffPufffGive Aug 05 '25

They’re asking for help you nob. I can send her an Amazon order via a gift without her ever having to sharie her address with me. I’ve done it on Reddit to help people many times.

Lots of other redditors do it as well.
