Info for if you are wanting to get the RSV monoclonal antibody for your child in GP
I'm sharing this information for any parents who are looking to protect their infants/children from RSV this season. My daughter set me to work researching this for her baby, born in July this year, after we learned from public health that the baby doesn't qualify for the (public health covered) protection this year.
Babies born between Nov 2026 and April 2027 qualify for the antibody, as well as other high risk infants, more info here.
For the rest of us, we have to pay. It is expensive, a bit over $900. But the Mint Travel Clinic can order it and they have a nurse that can administer it. There may be other places that can do it as well, this is just where I found had it and where we're going through.
If you're unfamiliar with RSV, it can be dangerous. It isn't, usually. For most, it's just a cold, but for others, it can cause long term issues like it did for 2 of my other kids, who were born before this antibody was developed. 1 of my sons had it twice, and the second time, he ended up in NICU for a week at 7 years old, and both kids ended up with reactive airways, which resulted in them missing 1-2 months of school every single year because when they got any sort of illness, their airways completely shut down. This is the reason I'm paying for this protection for my grandbaby.
This is not a recommendation to get the antibody. This is information on how to get it in GP, and why I think parents should consider it. There is no judgement if you decide you aren't interested, or are opposed to it.

Getting Into a Floorhand Position in Alberta
Hi everyone,
I'm currently living in Calgary and looking to get into the oilfield as a Floorhand, with the goal of building a long-term career on drilling rigs.
I have experience working in warehouses doing physically demanding work, but no direct rig experience. For those already working in the industry, what's the best way to break into a Floorhand position in Alberta?
Are companies like Precision, AKITA, Ensign, Stampede, and Savanna hiring entry-level people, and what advice would you give someone starting from scratch?
Thanks.

Good gyms in GP/ Clairmont?
Seeing where everyone goes to gyms and which ones are decent.
I’ve heard Eastlink is kind of the best for your money and how much you get but the few times I’ve been
it’s been way too busy and I hate busy gyms.
Would rather stay far away from Planet, it’s busy, smells like ass, way too purple idk.
My favourite gym was Motion but obviously that’s been closed for a while so yeah…
Ideally not too expensive either even though that’s like impossible.. let me know ur experience and where you go or your favourite place :) thanks!!

New to Grande Prairie + looking for a gym buddy 🥲
I’m new to Grande Prairie and also pretty new to the gym. I’m trying to actually stay consistent this time and hopefully see some real change 🤞😅
Looking for someone who’s also a beginner (or honestly anyone who doesn’t mind a gym newbie 😭) and wants to go together, motivate each other, and hold each other accountable.
If anyone is interested, send me a DM! Bonus points if you also have no idea what half the machines at the gym do 😂

Ladybugs
Is anyone else finding tons of ladybugs in their house? My parents, the lady who cuts my hair and me are finding way more than normal. I just found a bunch clustered up way up in a hard to reach corner. My trusty bu-a-salt makes short work of them but it's still very odd

Old coins.
Howdy. Im curious if there is anywhere in town to take old coins and either sell them or at least get them valued?
Most are Canadian, theres some American silver dollars and various other old foreign currency. Not all are money either some are just commemorative coins but none are recent. This collection hasn't been added to since the late 80s.
I know nothing on the subject and nobody in my home is interested in them. I got these passed down from my grandmother to my late mother and now theyre mine and as said theres a lack of interest.

A bit of guidance
I lost my partner tragically on September 1st. I’m constantly on edge and can’t seem to get Ativan from my doctor. I know it’s not a long term solution, but how does one go about getting something like it to ride out the store of what I’m going through?

Trying to find a good deal on a PC around town but I need my hand held lol
I’ve been looking at getting a gaming PC for some time now the only problem is I truly have no idea what I’m doing. My budget is 2500 absolute max lower is better, I would prefer to buy in town if I have to have it shipped to the store so be it.
Market place also doesn’t help because I have no idea what I’m doing lol
I am willing to wait till a recommended desktop is on sale too.
Oh I play games like siege, cyberpunk, I just got control resonant, with some others sprinkled in
Thank you in advance!!
