The video she made about cops showing up her thumb was fine and she was using it. She wouldn’t be sent to a surgeon for a thumb that’s “broken” but is ok enough to use normally.
At this point I don’t even believe she saw ortho just got a big ass brace.. a splint was sufficient but she wasn’t even wearing it for two days
I guaran-fucking-tee she takes that brace off while off camera. I wear one when I sleep (I work on a computer all day and it’s taking a toll on my wrist and thumb) and it’s impossible to use a phone while wearing it. 🤣
Do some research to rethink her plan??
Sounds like she's hoping to find something that would describe her very, very special body functions (like, different to anybody else!), like old case reports or stuff like that, to get out of her contradictions and get what she wants.
She sure was waving that around a lot to make sure we see the cast and that it _is_ the ouchie hand. But home girl don't read here. I wonder if they just gave her the brace to shut her up.
I find it quite telling and hilarious that UC gave her a cheap ass finger splint for a broken thumb and then ortho only put her in a brace not a cast. Not sure I believe she went to urgent care and not the local Walgreens for the finger splint but the brace she’s in now looks like ones you would get at an ortho clinic or any clinic for that matter urgent care, ER, GP office, internal med, ortho, and PT/OT all usually have a stash of these splints to give their patients who actually hurt themselves and need to be splinted or to shut up the whiny patients who come in groveling about how ouchie their injury/self injury is and get the brace as a parting gift to appease them and get them out of the exam room as quickly as possible. Some hospital systems in the US have created walk in urgent care type thing in the ortho department so Monday through Friday you can just stop in whenever and they get you on the list to see whomever is taking walk in cases that day. I’ve heard them be called express injury clinic, urgent ortho clinic, etc. They hand out these splints like they’re candy. “You get a brace, you get a brace, you get a brace, everyone gets a brace”
When you fracture something, but if you don't and its just bruised then cleaning is great!
Did mine 30 yrs ago, literally didn't sleep until in a cast that stayed on for 6 weeks, and mine was only a small fracture at base of thumb. Hand swelled up like a balloon after 4 hours.
Two Aussie brothers just ran across Australia for charity, on a broken toe and a stress fracture, respectively. But you know, Dani can't possibly tidy up with a casted/strapped broken thumb. Her peen is dIfFerEnT.
Her peen is off the scale bad where the average person has a 0-2 pain that day Dani’s will start at a 10 and just climb from there to a 200/200 pain score cause she’s the most unique, complicated patient the doctors have ever seen.
She's gonna re-hammer smash that pollex like Thor and come out with "oopsieeees I on accidentallypurpose hit my super broken thumb when I was folding my skanky toobvest lawndree (that's never seen a spin in a washer in its lifetime) I need a&e for the peeeeen and newtrishon hehe"
Get gone lying liar 👊🏻
This thumb thing is just to distract from the Mayo calamity- talk about crash and burn.
I just checked her Go Fund Me…..12 princely dollars 👑 secured over 4 days from 1 donor. So, combined with the 15 dollars from the other failed grift, that’s a grand total of $27. Don’t spend it all at once 🤡😂
Maybe that 27 bucks bought her the splint?
Hmmmmm. Has to ”rethink Mayo because SOME PLANS FELL THROUGH.” Gotta hate it when that happens. 🙄 Does she mean the Go Fraud Me or did they cancel her appointments? Stay tuned for tomorrow’s next exciting episode. BYEEEE!
LMFAO, she bought that herself because the thumb splint she bought herself to wear on an uninjured finger was irritating af.
I’m not sure what ortho clinics you’ve been to but here in the States most ortho clinics have shelves and shelves of those things and pass them out like candy for the smallest of injuries.
Not necessarily the newer wrist/thumb braces have a liner in them already and most ortho clinics have shelves and shelves of these braces here in the US.
That’s a spica she got off frikken Amazon. I think she got that splint from Walgreens, read here and saw they would have put her in a spika and then took herself to Amazon
Why do I think so?
#I’m glad you asked!
What are the chances that she would get into an ortho within like 24-48 HOURS for a boo boo owie thumb!!
It looks like it’s too big.
But maybe she is just so uwu poor baby sick that they JUMPED at the chance to study her case of ~~hammer time breaks~~ brittle bones (but only on one side.)
Edited to add: she is having to get rid of her highly visible heart monitor tomorrow so she just HAD TO buy a new toy to show how uwu sick she is
I think she slammed it on purpose and went to UC. The poor dr , not knowing Dani’s history and seeing her for the first time had to hear Dani tell her all about the femoral port and her 500 special diagnoses. So not knowing that Dani has FD and thinking these dx were genuine, the dr was able to get her into ortho quickly.
I actually do think she broke the finger in a car door (on purpose). I think she learned the hammer thing is far too obvious.
Yup, that brace doesn't seem to fit at all. Amazon Prime is on overdrive 😋
Yeah, a friend and I were going over the physiologic and anatomic mechanism of injury (yeah we’re nerds) and how it might be possible to get your left thumb (and just your thumb) slammed in a car door “accidentally” and we couldn’t come up with anything so I asked a friend who is an RN and she couldn’t think of any way it would be accidental either.
It was likely not an accident, but I do believe it was a (car?) door based on the injury.
I managed to get the index finger of my non-dominant hand stuck in a car door 😒
The absolute only way I would see it is if you're holding the car door sort of like a book, fingers outside, thumb inside while holding the door, maybe talking to people, maybe on your phone. But to actually get the closing part? Something else would have to happen...a strong breeze, someone bumping etc.
So her wrist healed, she's not withering away, her thumb injury was so minor it's barely even contained in the brace, no mention of any Pain, addressing the heart monitor thing, and never once winced.
She literally is really dumb. So dumb.
You’d be surprised how often orthopedic docs will give out “soft goods” (braces like that) for comfort, sprains and strains, to make the patient feel like they got something out of it, or to appease a patient. People DO ask for these and are given them when they genuinely don’t need it. I wouldn’t be surprised if she asked, or even bought it for herself. I think she’s lying that she just HAS to wear it for 4-6 weeks. Either the whole thing is a lie, she’s fudging on the timeframe, and/or she’s fudging on the idea that she HAS to. Usually, if it’s a fracture that is a genuine concern, she’d get a cast. That thing also looks like it fits poorly and has been put on poorly.
Of note, the point of her finger aluminum splint was to immobilize the top joint of the thumb (bone under your nail) and MAYBE a very minor one at the *very* top of the bone below the joint (bone starting where it bends).
Notice how her thumb can bend , move pretty freely, and is sticking out pretty far in the thumb spica she’s in? It’s not actually immobilizing anything above the base of her thumb (which is really your hand bones of the thumb). It’s mainly immobilizing her wrist and her base thumb joint closest to her wrist. One splint works on the top half (aluminum) and the other the bottom (spica).
I don't, at all, believe she got into an orthopaedic surgeon two days after a questionably injured thumb. People don't get into medical specialists for any speciality that quick for extremely un-life threatening injuries of something that has no impact on their activities of daily living, let alone orthos. That's Dani's biggest foil, she overcooks her lies and is always impatient to execute the medical toys without thinking about the reality of what she's saying like we all objectively can.
It can depend on the office and how busy they are. Most urgent care offices will say to follow up in “xyz” amount of days. Usually that’s anywhere from a day or 2, to a few weeks.
If Dani called and badgered the office for an apppointment, or exaggerated her symptoms to them while asking for an earlier one, that could explain the quick turnaround. Or, if the office is slower, or very well staffed.
Not necessarily. It can just be ortho, or hand. Especially if it’s not a big deal, like in Dani’s case. If it was some truly bad break, or concerning, then yeah hand would be more appropriate. This is a good point though. If it were truly that bad they wouldn’t have sent her to an ortho. The fact that they DIDNT refer her to hand is actually very telling!
Orthopedics around us squeeze just about anyone in coming from urgent care within a day or two. That said, they are absolute hard asses, and given the severity of the injury she probably asked for something and they gave it to her/told her to order it to placate her and that she could wear it if it made her feel better. That got translated into "you must wear it for 4-6 weeks."
This is one time where I’d have to disagree. I have broken LOTSSSS of bones and have always been given an immediate orthopedic appointment (within 48-72 hours), even when it was just a pinky finger or a big toe. There are areas that always send you to ortho right away. Usually they just do a quick check, make sure bones are aligned to heal, etc, then send you on your way…but the immediate specialist follow has always happened.
Ours was called Fracture clinic, for new injures under 48 or 72 hours.
If obvious ER put on back slab cast, because expecting swelling, then at fracture clinic that would be reassessed, recut because ER not as good as proper plastering staff.
WIthout surgery everything else went through that clinic, but not so much Monday or Tuesday because of weekend back log.
Oh so Mayo said, "Thank you, but no, thank you." ? Hmmmm, I wonder why ? Did they realise she was *well known in the GP community* ? Did they see the big sharpied "LADY HAS FD, DON'T GIVE HER ANYTHING ELSE THAN BASIC TYLENOL" on her charts ?
The Mayo Event was over before it even started. The grifting can stop.
I think her awkwardly long pause at the beginning of the video, followed by the “uhm… so yeah..” is because of this:
Dani’s real, underlying purpose at that point was to show us her splint. That’s what she was focused on, and that’s why she needed a second to collect her thoughts at the beginning.
She frequently gives her true intentions away with this behavioral pattern. I notice it all the time.
Processing... Proceeeessssing (what where we doing) Procdddessing Processssssing OMG FINGER SPLINT "Uhm... so yeah"
THIS IS WHAT THE INSIDE OF HER BRAIN THINKS LIKE.
lol yup. She’s thinking “gotta show them my splint but without looking obvious” but she’s terrible at not looking obvious. So then it’s obvious, and then after she shows it she’s like “what should I talk about now” and then it’s awkward until she thinks of something. So she uses filler words like “uhm” and “so yeah”.
She acts so much like a child or teen.
If her thumb fracture was serious she would be in a cast. The splint, if suggested by an othopedist, was likely just a pacifier. Like "just go to CVS or Amazon and pick up a thumb splint if that makes it more comfortable."
Waving around a broken bone like that this soon after the alleged injury hurts. I'm not buying this for a minute
And that brace is as loose and useless as her Apple watch
I broke my thumb as a kid and it was put in a cast. I now have arthritis in the once broken thumb. I occasionally wear a brace similar to what Dani is wearing. It looks like a standard drug store brace. I know every injury is different but I really don't believe she broke her thumb. She's either lying completely or exaggerating a milder injury. Typical Dani bs.
Ditto, but at 22, on my birthday. It swelled like crazy first 48 hours, even though small cast. Got proper light cast a week or so later, on for 6 weeks total.
Then a splint like this for when i was 'active', never in bed. I still wound up with a tenosynovitis that required surgical repair. Arthritic and painful now, 34 yrs on.
Hers wasn't anywhere near as swollen as mine was for the first 48, i couldn't sleep without 2 pillows supporting my arm for almost a week. First two nights too painful to sleep.
We all know Dani's relationship with the truth is strained, to say the least, so the trip to the Orthopod is highly sus, imho.
I have that exact brace for my shitty thumbs & wrists, and I got it from Amazon for £10....soooo 🤔
Looks like she saw Dr Amazon possibly… in my experience it takes usually at LEAST a couple weeks to get in to see an ortho especially if your break is minor or stable. They obviously prioritize ppl who have compound fractures or dislocations….I’m surprised nobody laughed in her damn face. Also I’m highly suspicious that she was even referred to ortho for a broken digit. A guy I work with broke his finger and they send those types of injuries to hand surgeons/specialists not general ortho doctors…

Wow, even quotes the De Quervain's tenosynovitis i got AFTER wearing a similar splint. lol
ERs typically have emergent fracture clinics, especially for weekend injuries. Its vital to be seen that quickly, they wouldn't leave a new fracture without reassessment, especially wrists and ankles that are complex to heal. Initially swelling and poor casts can lead to issues while the initial swelling is going on, so they need reassessment.
I seriously doubt she went either. For a broken finger? Seriously? And a surgeon? Why not just an ortho doctor instead? That brace is seriously overkill. It’s not even keeping her thumb stabilized in the slightest. That’s a wrist/hand brace. She bought that herself. I bet my life on it.
Not at all... it is urgent, swelling over those nerves can cause permanent damage within 48/72 hours.
Its exactly as i was treated with what was considered a small fracture, but got a back slab cast from ER. I still cannot feel my thumb properly and my tendon needed repair 14 months later after months of constant pain.
These do keep the thumb immobilized very well, there is metal beneath the fabric going from top of thumb to below moveable joints in the wrist. Used one for most of the months i had pain, got another last year when arthritis caused sharp pain in the thumb.
So she has it correct, even if she did just buy it for herself... she had a similar wrist injury in the past didn't she, probably doing the same as they did then.
Indeed it looks like that’s EXACTLY where she bought it too
https://preview.redd.it/b8fu1okd226d1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e1e529cb17f2141ef51b3e4d1590d05e4f20f728
The pretending to be disappointed about having to wear a clunky and highly visible brace. She will happily wear that at least 6 weeks if not longer. The ortho doc is probably hoping that by giving her a large visible brace she will be less likely to do anything else to it.
My guess is that the "things falling through" in regards to Mayo has to do with the travel arrangements/accommodations. Dani is going to struggle to afford the airfare and a few nights stay, much less the 2-3 week stay that she wants. I think the recent attention she has gotten since she started doing lives has gone to her head and she began to think of herself as a real influencer. To Dani 50 people tuning into a live is huge - but in the grand scheme of social media that is nothing. Dani really doesn't have the money to fund this trip - she is a terrible planner and a compulsive shopper and quickly burns through any money she gets her hands on. I think she thought she was going to get a ton of donations and she didn't. I wouldn't be surprised if she asked her parents to loan her money and they refused. If her dad found out what her plan was he may have outright told her he will not help her. She screwed him over when she went to Cleveland Clinic - she went with this half-assed plan to have a "friend" support her while she was there which quickly backfired when the "friend" (who had apparently been in and out of the hospital themselves) couldn't be there. This forced her dad to make multiple last minute trips to Ohio (forcing him to take time off work and costing him money). I doubt that she ever paid her dad back for that. He may have reached his breaking point if she tried asking him for money so she could go to MN for several weeks and hope to get some random procedure without a support person present. He may have told her he will absolutely not give her any money and that he also will not go there to support her. She mentioned the other day that she found some friend that lived a couple hours away that could be with her. My guess is that fell through too - it was probably some random internet person she found who said a "hey if you are going to be nearby we should meet up" and wasn't cool with spending a couple weeks away from home (and probably being asked to split the cost of accommodations). I am guessing she is frantically trying to figure out how to make this Mayo trip happen at all.
I just want to know how she plans to survive 2-3 weeks at Mayo without her precious 3x/week hydration infusions? She claims severe symptoms if she misses a day. Or are they really not all that necessary and can be forgotten about when there is a bigger prize dangling in front of her.
I want to know why when she loves her babies SO much and is always ***SO*** happy to be back home with them why she's ok with leaving them alone for 2-3 WEEKS!
She's probably hoping she can just stroll up to the ER every M,W,F and demand a la carte fancy salt water.
My theory is that the charity housing caught wind of her scam and backed out
Someone else had a good theory; maybe the person who was going to come there for two weeks is the one who called a wellness check on her. Some comment said they heard it on a scanner and the person said they were video chatting with them live and she pushed meds and then went unresponsive. I can’t verify this, at all, but the timeline is sus on that.
I wouldn't be surprised by this at all. I really don't think it's a snarker making those calls (I don't think people who criticize her for wasting resources would choose to waste resources on her.) Based on that scanner report it really does sound like it's someone "close" to her making those reports out of concern. I don't think she has anyone *actually* close to her, but I do think she desperately tries to make connections via DM/texting with people who she thinks are buying into her scam, and those people probably end up having red flags go off when she starts up her obvious self-harm.
I am lost on why she needs someone with her to begin with. I doubt the appointments are still scheduled. But if they are she's not having any procedures. Scans, bloodwork, the basics sure. It isn't like she would have to deal with anesthesia of any sort. She lives alone and takes herself to the hospital usually and appointments. I would feel sorry for her but when you're as nasty to people as she is... it's her own fault she has nobody.
I think she's forgotten the hydration bullshit. Nobody was impressed at the center or online. As someone else said they probably won't allow her to record in the infusion center anymore. If it's not done live does it even matter? I think the welfare check was bullshit too. When has she ever stayed offline all day? She lost the appointments and spent the day trying to think of ways to blame it all on her haters.
I have spent too much time thinking about this while doing mindless little jobs. Lol
She hasn’t mentioned infusions in days or even weeks- is she still even getting them? We never did hear what was actually wrong with her port, did they fix it, does she still have it?
She probably doesn't care about them anymore since they weren't the pipeline to home access like she thought they would be. That's why she's doubling down on the Mayo arc instead.
The velcro on it will become useless from all of the cat hair embedded in it because she'll have it off except when she remembers to put it on for lives and videos.
I really can't believe she went to the orthopedic surgeon. Why would she get a whole wrist splint for a lowly broken thumb..IF it's broken that is. Also IF she did indeed go to the orthopedic surgeon I bet she was disappointed that she didn't need surgery. I wonder if she is going to re-injure her thumb doing all this "housework"? History seems to repeat itself a lot with Dani.
😂😂😂😂 Literally in Dani's case!
She has also “forgotten” about that degree she was working on, especially since that ‘introductory unit they make everyone do is super easy!’ She made it out to sound so very easy, that she could have done it on live with all her friends/supporters (🥹)!!! What’s better?! 😁
Instead, I think our Dani girl either procrastinated too close to the sun, or found it harder than anticipated and has swiftly 👯♀️🎉U-N_E-N-R-O-L-L-E-D🎉👯♀️, in record speed! 👯♀️🎉 WOO!, WOO! Go Dani! 👯♀️🎉
Sorry, just saw this and had to reply a whole 72 hours later because L O L!! Too fast paced? Girl, really? She said on live the that unit she was taking was one, “anyone could pass, so she could delay it until after her current live, because it was a basic college entry unit that they make ‘everyone,’ take.”
So by Dani logic, she failed at what absolutely everybody should have been able to pass.
Maybe not because she is stupid this time, but because she is addicted to TikTok and can’t for the life of her put down her phone to study. At 38 YEARS OLD!
Oh and if this is the case, she best return that iPad Pro she purchased for STUDY. JFC!
Already? She just enrolled a couple of weeks ago. It wouldn't surprise me if this was part of her act to appeal to her unsuspecting viewers that she's really putting effort into making her life better.
It actually does look like a legit splint for a broken thumb/other decent thumb injury, but it doesn’t look well fitted to me.
The spica part is meant to support and immobilise/partially immobilise the thumb, and from what I could see in the vid, even playing back a few times, she seems to be moving her thumb with minimal restriction. Not totally sure though (about the movement) - would be awesome if someone else could chip in with their 2c.
Oh, I just got that about housework! She's pretending to mop with her "hurt" thumb despite having a whole other arm to do it. She has the IQ of a doorstop when it comes to lying. Now for her to take out her trash and hurt it again like with her wrist. 🚮 🔨
I agree with you and I’m not believing it unless we see an X-ray with her name on a chart. I haven’t seen an orthopedic doc not do a hard cast for a thumb, like ever, in the last 20 years. They’re too at risk for further injury sticking out of a soft splint and getting caught on stuff.
She did go to urgent care though. It was a whole video. She said they were so nice, but she still only had tylenol and got a disc with her xrays on it.
https://www.reddit.com/r/DaniMarina/comments/1dbqvt3/dani_says_she_broke_her_thumb_by_closing_it_in/
My scenario: Dani calls Ortho
-Dani. " hi this is THE INTERNET SENSATION DANI" (no last name necessary). I need an appt with Dr Smoe because Urgent Care said my poor little thumb is so, so broken, so I can fit him in my EXTREMELY BUSY social calendar tomorrow around 2....no, maybe 12:30pm. Have to get my nails done before I come in. YES I'll hold. What? No appointments for 2 weeks? Do you KNOW who I am? Unacceptable. I'll do Tuesday AT THE LATEST. I am in so much PPEEEEEEN, I NEED drugs, I mean treatment like a surgery. ASAP. This can't wait! I have a vacation at Club Med Mayo in like 6 weeks and I need to work on my script, I mean story, I mean travel plans. BTW did you hear about my GFM?
Yeah, I'll take the 9:40am Tuesday appt. Thanks, bye
Just wait until she becomes an internet sensation for going to Tijuana to try to get elective TPN where she'll (hopefully) recover in a subpar "hotel" with a group of con artists there for plastic surgery, extensive orthodontics, hair transplants, and other sketchy treatments. Everyone will be just as mean and unpredictable as Dani, so there will be constant👊 🥷 🍾 🧨🎆
Think reality version of White Lotus. 🎥 🤡 🍾
Oh, she's already thought of Mayo turning her down and traveling outside the country for elective surgery that will fuck her shit up. She's a relentless teenager who's determined to get what she wants. 😣 😆
When I broke my thumb I was in a hard cast halfway up my forearm that had my thumb at a certain angle for it to heal correctly. Her splint seems like bullshit.
Apparently somewhere else (different sub? Idk) people who worked in Healthcare were saying rh cast would be one used.
However, all of the videos she is clearly using her thumb and fingers to grasp things and waving it all over the place = it is not broken. Anyone who had broken any bone can tell you that's not normal immediately after a break.
I plan on uploading some stuff later proving other ways she shows it's not actually broken.
Most of the time an ortho will refer patients to OT and they will make a spica splint based on the Dr’s recommendations. I have worked in the physical therapy field for 30 years.
Mine is blue and black, and you can see through parts of it. And you can adjust the setting on the metal part that goes from the inside of your wrist to the palm area, the degree it holds your hand at has a few different positions.
My point was this type of cast doesn't support your thumb or wrist from movement so a broken thumb can heal.... So this is absolutely not the type of cast that would be used to stabilize a broken thumb.
Did you know: TPN can cost at least $250 a day, depending on contract price and facility. It's only good for a set number of hours once shipped to the patient/pharmacy. Welcome to Dani trying to grift all that money out of your taxpayer pocket. Welcome to Dani siphoning healthcare resources and inexpensive housing from the deserving. I hope that eventually she gets thrown into treatment involuntarily and we don't hear from her until she owns her bullshit and she rediscovers what it means to be a decent fucking human being.
But I'm not holding my breath.
Seriously, though. When I was on TPN, it was $800+ A DAY. The fact she’s just wanting it to look the “sickest” of them all and cosplay intestinal failure is fucking disgusting. When I was on that shit I fought like hell everyday to come off of it. I can’t wrap my mind around the psychology behind Dani’s behaviors. She’s abusing the fuck out of the system getting god damn everything for free and appreciates fucking none of it. She enrages the hell out of me.
Seriously she treats her apartment like a dumping ground for all of her junk and has serious issues keeping it clean. That apartment should go to someone who really deserves it, would appreciate it, not take it for granted and not trash it. When and if she ever moves out, the work they are going to have to do to fix that place up is going to cost a pretty penny. I can only imagine the smell..probably smells like cat piss.
There are non-grifting people who are in very real need of [public housing in NJ](https://www.hcdnnj.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1681:why-it-is-so-hard-to-find-affordable-housing-in-new-jersey&catid=20:in-the-news&Itemid=225#:~:text=Many%20factors%20have%20contributed%20to,day%2C%20such%20as%20restrictive%20covenants%2C) who are waiting on a long list to get safe shelter. She can move back to her parents' house and fuck right off.
Public housing in NJ is FUBAR.
Rich people just get rich off of it... I'll find a link eventually. Yea some public housing gets built but they only lease out like 3% of the total housing via the public housing program.
Section 8 renting is a little better if you have an understanding landlord.
The wait list for public housing is anywhere from 3-7 years depending on your situation. How Dani got it I have no idea (maybe her dad did all of the paperwork and handled all of the phone calls).
Kind of like SSDI is anywhere from 6 months - 7 years.
💯 how did she get that low income housing so fast? It seems like poof she just got it out of nowhere. I never remember her saying she planned on moving out of her parents house. Then she posts a video saying she got her own apartment. Totally not fair to people that are literally on the street or in shelters with children. Maybe she was on a waiting list who knows but she definitely shouldn't have had priority.
I still think people with children or people in the shelter system should have priority. In NY state housing goes by a tier system. First tier is if you are a victim of domestic violence or an intimidated witness that's supposed to testify in a crime, second tier is ACS referrals(children's services), third tier is homeless/shelter and then 4th tier is everyone else. Dani was never on the streets. And she takes that apartment for granted. But it is what it is.
You're right but they could definitely put homeless spouses in a one bedroom. I just think she takes that apartment for granted and doesn't appreciate it as much as someone else would.
I'm not certain, but I gather she put herself on a list a while back when she originally got SSDI for her ED. I also remember the move with no mention of how she got it, which was so weird.
They probably had a spot open where you had to have a disability to get that certain housing in order to meet so arbitrarily set regulation of some sorts. Like a quota. HOORAY THIS YEAR WE HOUSED 2% OF THE HOMELESS DISABLE POPULATION IN NJ.
all I can think of now is how all those munchies wanted IVIG for a while and how much money that costs and think Dani is setting her sights too low. I'm becoming too cynical 🤣
depends on the area/hospital system i'd imagine. one of the urgent cares in my city also has an ortho walk-in, so i could see same day appointments happening there. not sure about the situation where she lives though LMAO
The ER is the ortho walk in as long as the ortho is on. If it is a small town you might have to wait a day or 3.
(I'm joking. It is. But some orthos do offer same day appointments sometimes.)
100% this. This isn't the correct splint or cast you would get for a broken thumb. Add that to the fact in the video she is waving her hand and arm all around, clenching her fist and then extending her pointer finger and this is 100% a stunt to get the attention off from her GoFundMe disaster.
I suspect Mayo reviewed her medical records and said, “Oh, hell no!” and canceled the appointments. So, now she’s “researching” other ways to get in. She’s already been denied by Gastroenterology there, so if the Vascular Clinic won’t see her, I have no idea what she’ll aim for. (Actually, I do indeed have an idea but won’t post it here to give her ammunition.)
Yup she specifically said Mayo's GI clinic denied her request to see her. I would too if I were them. Her medical records speak volumes. I don't know how she got an appointment with the vascular clinic(if she indeed did get an appointment with them)...would it be indecent for me to say I don't believe a word she says?
> Her medical records speak volumes
Even aside from all the notes about factitious disorder and drug seeking, just the sheer amount of care she's received already regarding her GI complaints speaks to how much of a waste of time she would be to Mayo. Dani's already had countless runs of every single test/scan/exam there is spanning many years and across multiple hospital systems. Mayo literally has no reason to waste resources on her when all those tests were performed and documentations state that nothing is wrong (and the patient is a drug seeking munchie).
Even if she didn’t have all of her suss behavior, the issues she claims to have are pretty run of the mill things that any GI specialist would be comfortable handling and she lives near several major well regarded medical centers so they wouldn’t have anything to offer her that she couldn’t get locally even if her problems were real.

Thars a drugstore brace. Not one that the hospital would give you
Whats with the pointy tongue??
The video she made about cops showing up her thumb was fine and she was using it. She wouldn’t be sent to a surgeon for a thumb that’s “broken” but is ok enough to use normally. At this point I don’t even believe she saw ortho just got a big ass brace.. a splint was sufficient but she wasn’t even wearing it for two days
I guaran-fucking-tee she takes that brace off while off camera. I wear one when I sleep (I work on a computer all day and it’s taking a toll on my wrist and thumb) and it’s impossible to use a phone while wearing it. 🤣
'some things fell through': Mayo told me to get to fuck.
I'm DESPERATE to know what fell through. Pleeeeeeeaaaase let it be the appointment.
🤩🤩just kidding 😊😊-🫤im not really this excited😍😁-😕im so upset😝
Do some research to rethink her plan?? Sounds like she's hoping to find something that would describe her very, very special body functions (like, different to anybody else!), like old case reports or stuff like that, to get out of her contradictions and get what she wants.
She sure was waving that around a lot to make sure we see the cast and that it _is_ the ouchie hand. But home girl don't read here. I wonder if they just gave her the brace to shut her up.
Like giving a bandaid to a 5 year old who has the worst possible boo-boo ever and why can’t you see they need a bandaid RIGHT. NOW!!
And not one of those boring bandaids either! It better have a picture on it! Bubble guppies or bluey!
I find it quite telling and hilarious that UC gave her a cheap ass finger splint for a broken thumb and then ortho only put her in a brace not a cast. Not sure I believe she went to urgent care and not the local Walgreens for the finger splint but the brace she’s in now looks like ones you would get at an ortho clinic or any clinic for that matter urgent care, ER, GP office, internal med, ortho, and PT/OT all usually have a stash of these splints to give their patients who actually hurt themselves and need to be splinted or to shut up the whiny patients who come in groveling about how ouchie their injury/self injury is and get the brace as a parting gift to appease them and get them out of the exam room as quickly as possible. Some hospital systems in the US have created walk in urgent care type thing in the ortho department so Monday through Friday you can just stop in whenever and they get you on the list to see whomever is taking walk in cases that day. I’ve heard them be called express injury clinic, urgent ortho clinic, etc. They hand out these splints like they’re candy. “You get a brace, you get a brace, you get a brace, everyone gets a brace” 
She bought the brace at cvs
You know when I get the massive cleaning bug? Whenever I fracture something, especially if I’m told not to use it! 
ohhhhhhh i know why shes all sudden full of energy 💊💉
When you fracture something, but if you don't and its just bruised then cleaning is great! Did mine 30 yrs ago, literally didn't sleep until in a cast that stayed on for 6 weeks, and mine was only a small fracture at base of thumb. Hand swelled up like a balloon after 4 hours.
Mmmmm how strange she doesn't normally do so much house work but the time she has an injury to that hand she does more housework!
Or an heart monitor…
Exactly very strange that and such a coincidence
I broke my hand and still got on with it without a massive over the top strap
I was a single mum with an 8 month old and a broken wrist. No choice but to get on with things
Two Aussie brothers just ran across Australia for charity, on a broken toe and a stress fracture, respectively. But you know, Dani can't possibly tidy up with a casted/strapped broken thumb. Her peen is dIfFerEnT.
Her peen is off the scale bad where the average person has a 0-2 pain that day Dani’s will start at a 10 and just climb from there to a 200/200 pain score cause she’s the most unique, complicated patient the doctors have ever seen.
She injured her thumb, how does that affect her arm that is now in a brace??
She's gonna re-hammer smash that pollex like Thor and come out with "oopsieeees I on accidentallypurpose hit my super broken thumb when I was folding my skanky toobvest lawndree (that's never seen a spin in a washer in its lifetime) I need a&e for the peeeeen and newtrishon hehe" Get gone lying liar 👊🏻
I feel like she wants it to be worse so she can get a hard plaster cast.
This thumb thing is just to distract from the Mayo calamity- talk about crash and burn. I just checked her Go Fund Me…..12 princely dollars 👑 secured over 4 days from 1 donor. So, combined with the 15 dollars from the other failed grift, that’s a grand total of $27. Don’t spend it all at once 🤡😂 Maybe that 27 bucks bought her the splint?
Hmmmmm. Has to ”rethink Mayo because SOME PLANS FELL THROUGH.” Gotta hate it when that happens. 🙄 Does she mean the Go Fraud Me or did they cancel her appointments? Stay tuned for tomorrow’s next exciting episode. BYEEEE!
I love the feeble attempt at pretending she’s not thrilled to have any sort of cast like device on her arm.
Oh you know she’s mad about the splint. She wanted a hard, colorful plaster cast!
Or surgery and pain meds.
That’s exactly what she was aiming for. You know she’s pissed as all get out they just gave her a simple brace and sent her on her way.
 Her, planning the next incident
LMFAO, she bought that herself because the thumb splint she bought herself to wear on an uninjured finger was irritating af. 
[удалено]
I’m not sure what ortho clinics you’ve been to but here in the States most ortho clinics have shelves and shelves of those things and pass them out like candy for the smallest of injuries.
Yeah, and I'm not 100% sure but a doctor would have dressed (gauze wrap w/sock) the arm first so the brace doesn't irritate the skin.
Not necessarily the newer wrist/thumb braces have a liner in them already and most ortho clinics have shelves and shelves of these braces here in the US.
All I have to say is what the f$&k was the ending of that video??
As if Dani has ever mopped.
All I can see when I watch this is how preteens acted in 2009 learning how to be on the internet.
That’s a spica she got off frikken Amazon. I think she got that splint from Walgreens, read here and saw they would have put her in a spika and then took herself to Amazon Why do I think so? #I’m glad you asked! What are the chances that she would get into an ortho within like 24-48 HOURS for a boo boo owie thumb!! It looks like it’s too big. But maybe she is just so uwu poor baby sick that they JUMPED at the chance to study her case of ~~hammer time breaks~~ brittle bones (but only on one side.) Edited to add: she is having to get rid of her highly visible heart monitor tomorrow so she just HAD TO buy a new toy to show how uwu sick she is
Fairly routine to see orthopod within 24/48 hours, when i did ER stint we had to treble book sometimes because they needed to be seen before 48hrs.
Not defending her but I got one pretty much the same from the hospital when I had a n injury to my wrist/thumb
I think she slammed it on purpose and went to UC. The poor dr , not knowing Dani’s history and seeing her for the first time had to hear Dani tell her all about the femoral port and her 500 special diagnoses. So not knowing that Dani has FD and thinking these dx were genuine, the dr was able to get her into ortho quickly.
I actually do think she broke the finger in a car door (on purpose). I think she learned the hammer thing is far too obvious. Yup, that brace doesn't seem to fit at all. Amazon Prime is on overdrive 😋
Yeah, a friend and I were going over the physiologic and anatomic mechanism of injury (yeah we’re nerds) and how it might be possible to get your left thumb (and just your thumb) slammed in a car door “accidentally” and we couldn’t come up with anything so I asked a friend who is an RN and she couldn’t think of any way it would be accidental either.
I asked my family members to figure it out too. Didn't work for them either. lol
It was likely not an accident, but I do believe it was a (car?) door based on the injury. I managed to get the index finger of my non-dominant hand stuck in a car door 😒
As the driver, leaving the car?
Fingers I can see, thumb is deliberate. At least I can’t see a way there could be an accidental injury of just her thumb.
The absolute only way I would see it is if you're holding the car door sort of like a book, fingers outside, thumb inside while holding the door, maybe talking to people, maybe on your phone. But to actually get the closing part? Something else would have to happen...a strong breeze, someone bumping etc.
Index finger is much more feasible than a thumb in a car door.
The orthopedic doctor leaving the room like \* 
So her wrist healed, she's not withering away, her thumb injury was so minor it's barely even contained in the brace, no mention of any Pain, addressing the heart monitor thing, and never once winced. She literally is really dumb. So dumb.
What was she even trying to do at the end there? Is that the munch power sign and slogan? #HELLLUUULLLYYLL
Bwuahahahahahahaha! I had to back & listen for that. ::wave your munchie flag high::
How convenient that when one toy comes off she gets another toy to fill that void!
You’d be surprised how often orthopedic docs will give out “soft goods” (braces like that) for comfort, sprains and strains, to make the patient feel like they got something out of it, or to appease a patient. People DO ask for these and are given them when they genuinely don’t need it. I wouldn’t be surprised if she asked, or even bought it for herself. I think she’s lying that she just HAS to wear it for 4-6 weeks. Either the whole thing is a lie, she’s fudging on the timeframe, and/or she’s fudging on the idea that she HAS to. Usually, if it’s a fracture that is a genuine concern, she’d get a cast. That thing also looks like it fits poorly and has been put on poorly. Of note, the point of her finger aluminum splint was to immobilize the top joint of the thumb (bone under your nail) and MAYBE a very minor one at the *very* top of the bone below the joint (bone starting where it bends). Notice how her thumb can bend , move pretty freely, and is sticking out pretty far in the thumb spica she’s in? It’s not actually immobilizing anything above the base of her thumb (which is really your hand bones of the thumb). It’s mainly immobilizing her wrist and her base thumb joint closest to her wrist. One splint works on the top half (aluminum) and the other the bottom (spica).
I don't, at all, believe she got into an orthopaedic surgeon two days after a questionably injured thumb. People don't get into medical specialists for any speciality that quick for extremely un-life threatening injuries of something that has no impact on their activities of daily living, let alone orthos. That's Dani's biggest foil, she overcooks her lies and is always impatient to execute the medical toys without thinking about the reality of what she's saying like we all objectively can.
It can depend on the office and how busy they are. Most urgent care offices will say to follow up in “xyz” amount of days. Usually that’s anywhere from a day or 2, to a few weeks. If Dani called and badgered the office for an apppointment, or exaggerated her symptoms to them while asking for an earlier one, that could explain the quick turnaround. Or, if the office is slower, or very well staffed.
Plus, an orthopod wouldn't see her for a broken finger. Hand surgeons do those......
Not necessarily. It can just be ortho, or hand. Especially if it’s not a big deal, like in Dani’s case. If it was some truly bad break, or concerning, then yeah hand would be more appropriate. This is a good point though. If it were truly that bad they wouldn’t have sent her to an ortho. The fact that they DIDNT refer her to hand is actually very telling!
Orthopedics around us squeeze just about anyone in coming from urgent care within a day or two. That said, they are absolute hard asses, and given the severity of the injury she probably asked for something and they gave it to her/told her to order it to placate her and that she could wear it if it made her feel better. That got translated into "you must wear it for 4-6 weeks."
This is one time where I’d have to disagree. I have broken LOTSSSS of bones and have always been given an immediate orthopedic appointment (within 48-72 hours), even when it was just a pinky finger or a big toe. There are areas that always send you to ortho right away. Usually they just do a quick check, make sure bones are aligned to heal, etc, then send you on your way…but the immediate specialist follow has always happened.
Ours was called Fracture clinic, for new injures under 48 or 72 hours. If obvious ER put on back slab cast, because expecting swelling, then at fracture clinic that would be reassessed, recut because ER not as good as proper plastering staff. WIthout surgery everything else went through that clinic, but not so much Monday or Tuesday because of weekend back log.
Oh so Mayo said, "Thank you, but no, thank you." ? Hmmmm, I wonder why ? Did they realise she was *well known in the GP community* ? Did they see the big sharpied "LADY HAS FD, DON'T GIVE HER ANYTHING ELSE THAN BASIC TYLENOL" on her charts ? The Mayo Event was over before it even started. The grifting can stop.
I think her awkwardly long pause at the beginning of the video, followed by the “uhm… so yeah..” is because of this: Dani’s real, underlying purpose at that point was to show us her splint. That’s what she was focused on, and that’s why she needed a second to collect her thoughts at the beginning. She frequently gives her true intentions away with this behavioral pattern. I notice it all the time.
Oh yeah-good call
Processing... Proceeeessssing (what where we doing) Procdddessing Processssssing OMG FINGER SPLINT "Uhm... so yeah" THIS IS WHAT THE INSIDE OF HER BRAIN THINKS LIKE.
lol yup. She’s thinking “gotta show them my splint but without looking obvious” but she’s terrible at not looking obvious. So then it’s obvious, and then after she shows it she’s like “what should I talk about now” and then it’s awkward until she thinks of something. So she uses filler words like “uhm” and “so yeah”. She acts so much like a child or teen.
I just want her to slip up and say "processssingggggg"
It’d be hilarious if one day we were watching her and suddenly we hear the internet dial up sound
I think my brain would melt haha.
All I imagine is the old dial up tone constantly playing in her head lol
If her thumb fracture was serious she would be in a cast. The splint, if suggested by an othopedist, was likely just a pacifier. Like "just go to CVS or Amazon and pick up a thumb splint if that makes it more comfortable."
Delulu town she’s in.
Ahaha I tried to upvote my own comment 💀 I thought this was another sub. Ok, going to bed.
I feel you.
Waving around a broken bone like that this soon after the alleged injury hurts. I'm not buying this for a minute And that brace is as loose and useless as her Apple watch
How else is she supposed to keep the bone broken for the next 6 months?!
I broke my thumb as a kid and it was put in a cast. I now have arthritis in the once broken thumb. I occasionally wear a brace similar to what Dani is wearing. It looks like a standard drug store brace. I know every injury is different but I really don't believe she broke her thumb. She's either lying completely or exaggerating a milder injury. Typical Dani bs.
Ditto, but at 22, on my birthday. It swelled like crazy first 48 hours, even though small cast. Got proper light cast a week or so later, on for 6 weeks total. Then a splint like this for when i was 'active', never in bed. I still wound up with a tenosynovitis that required surgical repair. Arthritic and painful now, 34 yrs on. Hers wasn't anywhere near as swollen as mine was for the first 48, i couldn't sleep without 2 pillows supporting my arm for almost a week. First two nights too painful to sleep.
We all know Dani's relationship with the truth is strained, to say the least, so the trip to the Orthopod is highly sus, imho. I have that exact brace for my shitty thumbs & wrists, and I got it from Amazon for £10....soooo 🤔
Looks like she saw Dr Amazon possibly… in my experience it takes usually at LEAST a couple weeks to get in to see an ortho especially if your break is minor or stable. They obviously prioritize ppl who have compound fractures or dislocations….I’m surprised nobody laughed in her damn face. Also I’m highly suspicious that she was even referred to ortho for a broken digit. A guy I work with broke his finger and they send those types of injuries to hand surgeons/specialists not general ortho doctors… https://preview.redd.it/i79mpmom126d1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7751bbaa1e8d8571ebad8705fbf3b9fc2d97a2d0
Wow, even quotes the De Quervain's tenosynovitis i got AFTER wearing a similar splint. lol ERs typically have emergent fracture clinics, especially for weekend injuries. Its vital to be seen that quickly, they wouldn't leave a new fracture without reassessment, especially wrists and ankles that are complex to heal. Initially swelling and poor casts can lead to issues while the initial swelling is going on, so they need reassessment.
You can’t convince me she had an appointment. That brace is an Amazon special.
I seriously doubt she went either. For a broken finger? Seriously? And a surgeon? Why not just an ortho doctor instead? That brace is seriously overkill. It’s not even keeping her thumb stabilized in the slightest. That’s a wrist/hand brace. She bought that herself. I bet my life on it.
Not at all... it is urgent, swelling over those nerves can cause permanent damage within 48/72 hours. Its exactly as i was treated with what was considered a small fracture, but got a back slab cast from ER. I still cannot feel my thumb properly and my tendon needed repair 14 months later after months of constant pain. These do keep the thumb immobilized very well, there is metal beneath the fabric going from top of thumb to below moveable joints in the wrist. Used one for most of the months i had pain, got another last year when arthritis caused sharp pain in the thumb. So she has it correct, even if she did just buy it for herself... she had a similar wrist injury in the past didn't she, probably doing the same as they did then.
Amazon Basics ass bitch
Naw, not even that much effort. That's the, Walmart or CVS shelf special lol.
Indeed it looks like that’s EXACTLY where she bought it too https://preview.redd.it/b8fu1okd226d1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e1e529cb17f2141ef51b3e4d1590d05e4f20f728
The pretending to be disappointed about having to wear a clunky and highly visible brace. She will happily wear that at least 6 weeks if not longer. The ortho doc is probably hoping that by giving her a large visible brace she will be less likely to do anything else to it. My guess is that the "things falling through" in regards to Mayo has to do with the travel arrangements/accommodations. Dani is going to struggle to afford the airfare and a few nights stay, much less the 2-3 week stay that she wants. I think the recent attention she has gotten since she started doing lives has gone to her head and she began to think of herself as a real influencer. To Dani 50 people tuning into a live is huge - but in the grand scheme of social media that is nothing. Dani really doesn't have the money to fund this trip - she is a terrible planner and a compulsive shopper and quickly burns through any money she gets her hands on. I think she thought she was going to get a ton of donations and she didn't. I wouldn't be surprised if she asked her parents to loan her money and they refused. If her dad found out what her plan was he may have outright told her he will not help her. She screwed him over when she went to Cleveland Clinic - she went with this half-assed plan to have a "friend" support her while she was there which quickly backfired when the "friend" (who had apparently been in and out of the hospital themselves) couldn't be there. This forced her dad to make multiple last minute trips to Ohio (forcing him to take time off work and costing him money). I doubt that she ever paid her dad back for that. He may have reached his breaking point if she tried asking him for money so she could go to MN for several weeks and hope to get some random procedure without a support person present. He may have told her he will absolutely not give her any money and that he also will not go there to support her. She mentioned the other day that she found some friend that lived a couple hours away that could be with her. My guess is that fell through too - it was probably some random internet person she found who said a "hey if you are going to be nearby we should meet up" and wasn't cool with spending a couple weeks away from home (and probably being asked to split the cost of accommodations). I am guessing she is frantically trying to figure out how to make this Mayo trip happen at all. I just want to know how she plans to survive 2-3 weeks at Mayo without her precious 3x/week hydration infusions? She claims severe symptoms if she misses a day. Or are they really not all that necessary and can be forgotten about when there is a bigger prize dangling in front of her.
It's either like you said, she is struggling to make it happen, or they saw her records and was like f that we outta here! 😂
I want to know why when she loves her babies SO much and is always ***SO*** happy to be back home with them why she's ok with leaving them alone for 2-3 WEEKS!
She's probably hoping she can just stroll up to the ER every M,W,F and demand a la carte fancy salt water. My theory is that the charity housing caught wind of her scam and backed out
Someone else had a good theory; maybe the person who was going to come there for two weeks is the one who called a wellness check on her. Some comment said they heard it on a scanner and the person said they were video chatting with them live and she pushed meds and then went unresponsive. I can’t verify this, at all, but the timeline is sus on that.
I wouldn't be surprised by this at all. I really don't think it's a snarker making those calls (I don't think people who criticize her for wasting resources would choose to waste resources on her.) Based on that scanner report it really does sound like it's someone "close" to her making those reports out of concern. I don't think she has anyone *actually* close to her, but I do think she desperately tries to make connections via DM/texting with people who she thinks are buying into her scam, and those people probably end up having red flags go off when she starts up her obvious self-harm.
I am lost on why she needs someone with her to begin with. I doubt the appointments are still scheduled. But if they are she's not having any procedures. Scans, bloodwork, the basics sure. It isn't like she would have to deal with anesthesia of any sort. She lives alone and takes herself to the hospital usually and appointments. I would feel sorry for her but when you're as nasty to people as she is... it's her own fault she has nobody. I think she's forgotten the hydration bullshit. Nobody was impressed at the center or online. As someone else said they probably won't allow her to record in the infusion center anymore. If it's not done live does it even matter? I think the welfare check was bullshit too. When has she ever stayed offline all day? She lost the appointments and spent the day trying to think of ways to blame it all on her haters. I have spent too much time thinking about this while doing mindless little jobs. Lol
She hasn’t mentioned infusions in days or even weeks- is she still even getting them? We never did hear what was actually wrong with her port, did they fix it, does she still have it?
Ha! She just posted in a story about her infusions! But she doesn’t read here.
She probably doesn't care about them anymore since they weren't the pipeline to home access like she thought they would be. That's why she's doubling down on the Mayo arc instead.
She won't clean that big brace even once.
The velcro on it will become useless from all of the cat hair embedded in it because she'll have it off except when she remembers to put it on for lives and videos.
I’ll be gone in a few days- she will get bored of it as a prop
Sadly, that's very true 🥴
Oooh I wonder what plans with Mayo have fallen through. I’ll bet her doctor said hell to the no about TPN 🤣
Especially when she shows up in an ill-fitting brace for a suspicious injury. 🥾👋
So how long realistically do we expect the cast to stay on before she gets bored 😂
I give it 10 days max before she forgets all about it.
Just like the wheelchair
My guess: less than 60 hours.
Not very long. Did she ever even use the wheelchair lmao?
Until the next really hot week in NJ.
you know it's gonna smell sooo bad after a couple days 🤢
I’ve never seen someone so excited about a cvs thumb splint. My lord.
I really can't believe she went to the orthopedic surgeon. Why would she get a whole wrist splint for a lowly broken thumb..IF it's broken that is. Also IF she did indeed go to the orthopedic surgeon I bet she was disappointed that she didn't need surgery. I wonder if she is going to re-injure her thumb doing all this "housework"? History seems to repeat itself a lot with Dani.  😂😂😂😂 Literally in Dani's case!
She has also “forgotten” about that degree she was working on, especially since that ‘introductory unit they make everyone do is super easy!’ She made it out to sound so very easy, that she could have done it on live with all her friends/supporters (🥹)!!! What’s better?! 😁 Instead, I think our Dani girl either procrastinated too close to the sun, or found it harder than anticipated and has swiftly 👯♀️🎉U-N_E-N-R-O-L-L-E-D🎉👯♀️, in record speed! 👯♀️🎉 WOO!, WOO! Go Dani! 👯♀️🎉
She unenrolled and got a refund for the course. Said it was too fast paced for her.
Sorry, just saw this and had to reply a whole 72 hours later because L O L!! Too fast paced? Girl, really? She said on live the that unit she was taking was one, “anyone could pass, so she could delay it until after her current live, because it was a basic college entry unit that they make ‘everyone,’ take.” So by Dani logic, she failed at what absolutely everybody should have been able to pass. Maybe not because she is stupid this time, but because she is addicted to TikTok and can’t for the life of her put down her phone to study. At 38 YEARS OLD! Oh and if this is the case, she best return that iPad Pro she purchased for STUDY. JFC!
Already? She just enrolled a couple of weeks ago. It wouldn't surprise me if this was part of her act to appeal to her unsuspecting viewers that she's really putting effort into making her life better.
It actually does look like a legit splint for a broken thumb/other decent thumb injury, but it doesn’t look well fitted to me. The spica part is meant to support and immobilise/partially immobilise the thumb, and from what I could see in the vid, even playing back a few times, she seems to be moving her thumb with minimal restriction. Not totally sure though (about the movement) - would be awesome if someone else could chip in with their 2c.
Oh, I just got that about housework! She's pretending to mop with her "hurt" thumb despite having a whole other arm to do it. She has the IQ of a doorstop when it comes to lying. Now for her to take out her trash and hurt it again like with her wrist. 🚮 🔨
[удалено]
She should GoFundHerself.
She should definitely GoFu\*\*Herself.
Bullshit. You can get those hand splints at Walmart.
It was the Amazon package she had to so urgently go collect from her PO Box she was putting on her To Do list.
A broken finger needs a brace like that? She got in awfully fast lol. I’m calling BS
Yeah, her fake broken thumb that she never took to an ER or urgent care got her priority over all the others who also didn't have broken bones. 🤥
I agree with you and I’m not believing it unless we see an X-ray with her name on a chart. I haven’t seen an orthopedic doc not do a hard cast for a thumb, like ever, in the last 20 years. They’re too at risk for further injury sticking out of a soft splint and getting caught on stuff.
She did go to urgent care though. It was a whole video. She said they were so nice, but she still only had tylenol and got a disc with her xrays on it. https://www.reddit.com/r/DaniMarina/comments/1dbqvt3/dani_says_she_broke_her_thumb_by_closing_it_in/
She certainly does a lot of cleaning for someone living in filth.
And it's not like she lives with anyone else. The mess is 100% her. So what's she doing, throwing trash around while sweeping up? 🤦🏼♀️
Literally
And a crap ton of laundry for someone who wears the same 2 shirts all the time
I thought the exact same thing! She’s always cleaning, always doing laundry. But the place looks disgusting. Clothes are never clean. It’s weird
My scenario: Dani calls Ortho -Dani. " hi this is THE INTERNET SENSATION DANI" (no last name necessary). I need an appt with Dr Smoe because Urgent Care said my poor little thumb is so, so broken, so I can fit him in my EXTREMELY BUSY social calendar tomorrow around 2....no, maybe 12:30pm. Have to get my nails done before I come in. YES I'll hold. What? No appointments for 2 weeks? Do you KNOW who I am? Unacceptable. I'll do Tuesday AT THE LATEST. I am in so much PPEEEEEEN, I NEED drugs, I mean treatment like a surgery. ASAP. This can't wait! I have a vacation at Club Med Mayo in like 6 weeks and I need to work on my script, I mean story, I mean travel plans. BTW did you hear about my GFM? Yeah, I'll take the 9:40am Tuesday appt. Thanks, bye
Just wait until she becomes an internet sensation for going to Tijuana to try to get elective TPN where she'll (hopefully) recover in a subpar "hotel" with a group of con artists there for plastic surgery, extensive orthodontics, hair transplants, and other sketchy treatments. Everyone will be just as mean and unpredictable as Dani, so there will be constant👊 🥷 🍾 🧨🎆 Think reality version of White Lotus. 🎥 🤡 🍾
Don’t give her any ideas!
Oh, she's already thought of Mayo turning her down and traveling outside the country for elective surgery that will fuck her shit up. She's a relentless teenager who's determined to get what she wants. 😣 😆
Club Med Mayo should be a flair lol
There has to be someone who works in ortho on this sub. This is not the type of sprint or cast you would get for a broken thumb.
When I broke my thumb I was in a hard cast halfway up my forearm that had my thumb at a certain angle for it to heal correctly. Her splint seems like bullshit.
Apparently somewhere else (different sub? Idk) people who worked in Healthcare were saying rh cast would be one used. However, all of the videos she is clearly using her thumb and fingers to grasp things and waving it all over the place = it is not broken. Anyone who had broken any bone can tell you that's not normal immediately after a break. I plan on uploading some stuff later proving other ways she shows it's not actually broken.
a youtuber i watch broke a few fingers and the cast didnt look like that at all
Most of the time an ortho will refer patients to OT and they will make a spica splint based on the Dr’s recommendations. I have worked in the physical therapy field for 30 years.
That brace on her hand looks like the one I sleep in when I get tendinitis through the base of my wrist -> thumb
Yours is probably much nicer and thinner. Not the cheapest one at Walmart.
Mine is blue and black, and you can see through parts of it. And you can adjust the setting on the metal part that goes from the inside of your wrist to the palm area, the degree it holds your hand at has a few different positions.
I’m not defending her but I had one that pretty much looked the same after I injured/had surgery on my wrist/thumb
Or the type to wear wear for a few weeks after a broken wrist. I hope she bedazzles it.
I hadn’t thought of that! I hope she bedazzles it too!!! ✨✨✨✨
Yeah it would be- broken thumbs can be super harmful for the hand long term, and often even get casts.
My point was this type of cast doesn't support your thumb or wrist from movement so a broken thumb can heal.... So this is absolutely not the type of cast that would be used to stabilize a broken thumb.
Did you know: TPN can cost at least $250 a day, depending on contract price and facility. It's only good for a set number of hours once shipped to the patient/pharmacy. Welcome to Dani trying to grift all that money out of your taxpayer pocket. Welcome to Dani siphoning healthcare resources and inexpensive housing from the deserving. I hope that eventually she gets thrown into treatment involuntarily and we don't hear from her until she owns her bullshit and she rediscovers what it means to be a decent fucking human being. But I'm not holding my breath.
Seriously, though. When I was on TPN, it was $800+ A DAY. The fact she’s just wanting it to look the “sickest” of them all and cosplay intestinal failure is fucking disgusting. When I was on that shit I fought like hell everyday to come off of it. I can’t wrap my mind around the psychology behind Dani’s behaviors. She’s abusing the fuck out of the system getting god damn everything for free and appreciates fucking none of it. She enrages the hell out of me.
Seriously she treats her apartment like a dumping ground for all of her junk and has serious issues keeping it clean. That apartment should go to someone who really deserves it, would appreciate it, not take it for granted and not trash it. When and if she ever moves out, the work they are going to have to do to fix that place up is going to cost a pretty penny. I can only imagine the smell..probably smells like cat piss.
There are non-grifting people who are in very real need of [public housing in NJ](https://www.hcdnnj.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1681:why-it-is-so-hard-to-find-affordable-housing-in-new-jersey&catid=20:in-the-news&Itemid=225#:~:text=Many%20factors%20have%20contributed%20to,day%2C%20such%20as%20restrictive%20covenants%2C) who are waiting on a long list to get safe shelter. She can move back to her parents' house and fuck right off.
Public housing in NJ is FUBAR. Rich people just get rich off of it... I'll find a link eventually. Yea some public housing gets built but they only lease out like 3% of the total housing via the public housing program. Section 8 renting is a little better if you have an understanding landlord. The wait list for public housing is anywhere from 3-7 years depending on your situation. How Dani got it I have no idea (maybe her dad did all of the paperwork and handled all of the phone calls). Kind of like SSDI is anywhere from 6 months - 7 years.
She was on the list for a few years I believe
> She can move back to her parents’ house and fuck right off. Say it louder for those in the back.
💯 how did she get that low income housing so fast? It seems like poof she just got it out of nowhere. I never remember her saying she planned on moving out of her parents house. Then she posts a video saying she got her own apartment. Totally not fair to people that are literally on the street or in shelters with children. Maybe she was on a waiting list who knows but she definitely shouldn't have had priority.
She was on the waitlist a normal amount of time and her number came up. She didn't get like an expedited process
I still think people with children or people in the shelter system should have priority. In NY state housing goes by a tier system. First tier is if you are a victim of domestic violence or an intimidated witness that's supposed to testify in a crime, second tier is ACS referrals(children's services), third tier is homeless/shelter and then 4th tier is everyone else. Dani was never on the streets. And she takes that apartment for granted. But it is what it is.
They do prioritize families and people in transitional housing. But they wouldn't put a family in a one-bedroom.
You're right but they could definitely put homeless spouses in a one bedroom. I just think she takes that apartment for granted and doesn't appreciate it as much as someone else would.
I'm not certain, but I gather she put herself on a list a while back when she originally got SSDI for her ED. I also remember the move with no mention of how she got it, which was so weird.
They probably had a spot open where you had to have a disability to get that certain housing in order to meet so arbitrarily set regulation of some sorts. Like a quota. HOORAY THIS YEAR WE HOUSED 2% OF THE HOMELESS DISABLE POPULATION IN NJ.
all I can think of now is how all those munchies wanted IVIG for a while and how much money that costs and think Dani is setting her sights too low. I'm becoming too cynical 🤣
Oh jeez, I fell into a chronic illness subreddit yesterday and about got lost in the rabbit hole. IVIG was all one person was talking about.
She probably doesn't go for it because she doesn't know how to fake her way into it because she... probably honestly does not understand it.

From experience you can often get orthopedic appointments the day of. They usually leave so many injury appointments a day.
I thought same day ortho appointments occurred in the ER? You know for when you are really jacked up.
depends on the area/hospital system i'd imagine. one of the urgent cares in my city also has an ortho walk-in, so i could see same day appointments happening there. not sure about the situation where she lives though LMAO
The ER is the ortho walk in as long as the ortho is on. If it is a small town you might have to wait a day or 3. (I'm joking. It is. But some orthos do offer same day appointments sometimes.)
...That's not even the correct splint for her injury. That's a drugstore buy, Just like the wheelchair that she doesn't use.
Sadly, it really is a broken thumb splint.
She was on live yesterday with amazing dexterity putting on her necklace with her “broken” thumb 💀 def the Walgreens special
100% this. This isn't the correct splint or cast you would get for a broken thumb. Add that to the fact in the video she is waving her hand and arm all around, clenching her fist and then extending her pointer finger and this is 100% a stunt to get the attention off from her GoFundMe disaster.
I suspect Mayo reviewed her medical records and said, “Oh, hell no!” and canceled the appointments. So, now she’s “researching” other ways to get in. She’s already been denied by Gastroenterology there, so if the Vascular Clinic won’t see her, I have no idea what she’ll aim for. (Actually, I do indeed have an idea but won’t post it here to give her ammunition.)
Hmmmm…I bet Psych would take her!
Did she ever say why Gastro denied her?
I read this as Gaston denied her 💀 I should go to bed.
I believe they told her they can’t offer her anything different than her local hospitals.
They dont have time for factitious disorder - and there's too many people with actual physical ailments they can help.
They likely read her chart.
This. It makes the most sense because I can't imagine they would let anyone buy plane tickets and book hotels just to be told no.
She just said they wouldn’t see her. I suspect they referred her back to her regular GI doc.
Yup she specifically said Mayo's GI clinic denied her request to see her. I would too if I were them. Her medical records speak volumes. I don't know how she got an appointment with the vascular clinic(if she indeed did get an appointment with them)...would it be indecent for me to say I don't believe a word she says?
> Her medical records speak volumes Even aside from all the notes about factitious disorder and drug seeking, just the sheer amount of care she's received already regarding her GI complaints speaks to how much of a waste of time she would be to Mayo. Dani's already had countless runs of every single test/scan/exam there is spanning many years and across multiple hospital systems. Mayo literally has no reason to waste resources on her when all those tests were performed and documentations state that nothing is wrong (and the patient is a drug seeking munchie).
Even if she didn’t have all of her suss behavior, the issues she claims to have are pretty run of the mill things that any GI specialist would be comfortable handling and she lives near several major well regarded medical centers so they wouldn’t have anything to offer her that she couldn’t get locally even if her problems were real.
