Hello everyone,
Have been trying to catch up reading some of the posts on here and just wanted to say Hello! It has been crazy for me but as I can see so has it been for many of you here too! This life living with all the medical problems and pain is unbelievable but somehow we manage. So much has happened lately but the biggest problem is having to deal with all of this with no medical insurance. Last July, my primary doctor was the only one treating me and when I couldnt pay cash any longer she dropped me or at least that is what I hope it is. She just sent me a letter saying she could no longer treat me or give me any more perscriptions. So that began a nightmare of withdrawals off of every medicine I took except for blood pressure pills. Now still I have no insurance and no medicine so I am dealing with pain on a day to day basis. It is one of the hardest things I have ever had to do and the tough part is that I have to put on this face of being okay all the time and it is tough. I moved into my mother's home and soon afterward she had a serious car accident. Being 79 yrs old it has taken her to a place where she can no longer drive or work. Just the other day she went to feed the birds and she fell on the concrete outside and smashing her face. She was lucky but now I have to be very vigilante with her and it is tough but I wouldnt change it for the world. I have gotten to know my mother even better and I love her dearly!
Life is not always smiles and happy faces but gosh it hurts to even do that nowadays. My neck is still in constant pain, both knees and wrists need surgery but can't afford. Cant get any treatment or injections anymore so now I wonder how other people make out with no health care?
Sorry for the whining but glad to see many are making the best of a bad situation too!
Take care,
Judi
