Good morning,
Red I have been wondering where----sick and Tpsauld are also
I had computer problems in the mid summer in to fall. And then
the knee's being replaced have really kept me from being on
Messenger and now I have not been able to catch them. But I keep
hoping that I will see them on one night. I sure do miss everyone
alot. I guess it is true everyone move's on after awhile!! I guessed
that I just thought that most would stay to help all of the newbies
that are just starting out with whiplash pain and need help understanding
that they are not alone.
^i^

I missed your post .. thought I would tell you my rant of the day .
Our Government give our Canadian Flag Contract to China .
Toronto Canada had the Flag Contract for the last 12 years

Olympics 2010 and Canada Day ..... the Canadian Flag will be made by China
Pins , badges etc. will be made by China .

It urks me , that our gov. would give this contract to China considering we have lost jobs here faster than the United States .

An MPP said he would be imbarrassed to give a Canadian Flag to his constituents , who inwhich he fears would retaliate and throw the flag back in his face .

Personally I would have to agree with this MPP Peter Kormos ..something that is so symbolic as our Provincial Flag made in China , leaves one with mixed messages .


Only in Canada CAA ,


Pain every day is exhausting ... little things that urk me .. take me away from my pain for a thought or two .


Sheesh .. On a happy note CAA Tpsauld 's last post was ? I'm looking to see when she last posted. Hmmm

I'm still alive.

I just got my laptop back a couple of weeks ago. Haven't had good luck getting messenger back into it. I really I hate this stupid Vista. I think it has it out for me. I've had the worst time with this laptop since I've had it. Had to ship it back to HP when I got the black screen of death. Oh never mind I don't even want to talk about that it still makes me so mad.

Anyway I've just been in a slump. I stopped all my treatments. I got to the point that I just don't care anymore. Depression grabbed me and pulled me down and my PCP says I'm not depressed.

But I'm slowly pulling myself up by my boot straps.

I need to get myself together and start going back to the doc and trying to get rid of some of this pain level before I go completely insane. Maybe I am insane already I don't know.

Anyway I'm still here. I just shut down for awhile. Didn't really have much of anything to say and when I did it wasn't very nice so I didn't bother.

Tspauld,
Woo Hoo so GREATTTTTTTTTTT to hear from you!!!!
Miz T!! sorry to hear about depression,it is something that all of us MVA's fight. So I will be your cheering section and be there to help you fight. And "T" I am abie-normal but that does not keep me from putting my mouth in motion before I put my brain in gear!! LOL Here you can post naughty or nice!!! I (we) will always understand. That is what friends do!! I thought that I too could get my life back together by myself without Doc's. Even decided to quit smoking and I did, I was doing good too!! Then my Mother passed away. And then the last my last uncle on my Dad's side died, then the last uncle on my Mom's side died all with in 5 months after my Mom. I just wanted to dig a hole get down in it and pull the dirt back over me!!! I gained 50 pounds!! (But it has been a year and a month and I still am not smoking.)
But When Sept came I decided to get my life back together and lose this weight. So off I went to Curves and joined up. 2 week in to it my right knee bit the dust. Told it was time for a Knee Replacement. Decided to put it off till after Christmass!!! Did not want the Grandchildren to see me layed up during the Holidays. But then right after New Years before my Jan 14th surgery date the left Knee bit the dust. I though why not this is the way my life has been going!! It seems like I have had nothing but bad luck since my MVA anyway why not just roll with it?? And so that is what I have decided to do roll with it not fight it. And it seems to be working!!! LOL Hey I cann't get out of a chair, I only leave the house with a driver for PT other wise here I am since the 14th of Jan. And believe me Cabin fever is in full swing!!! LOL So "T" I am with you Honey!!
We can fight depression together!!!

Oh my T. I'm so glad you posted .. Depression is my first name .. I've gone down hill .. also have given up and it's not fun . I try to stay happy on the front side of me ... so no one picks up on my depression .. and I'm finding it very difficult to keep up the charade . It's the worse place a person can be .. never in my life time .. did I ever expect to be so low . No thanks to my lawyer who quit ... to cover up fraud .. inwhich pulled me down a thousand more notches .
T. we are here for you .. don't ever feel you are alone . We will do anything to help you .. even if it's just chat kiddo ... Doc wants me on medication for depression .. I refused to take any drug for depression .. but please .. don't go my way ... they say meds can help you ... ? I read the side effects and they scare me .. so its why I dont take anything for depression . Doc also told me , he will not help me with depression unless I take meds .... Doc said to me .. Red .. you take the meds for a few months and then I will think about getting you a therapist .. and not before . So Red refuses to take the meds and Doc refuses to send me to a therapist .

I need meds for pain inwhich pain everyday is tiring and depressing alone .
My anger towards my lawyer depresses me more inwhich I feel its a double whammy .
ANGER gets the best of me .. and though I know I have spent too much time on this .. it helps to talk about it .

Hey T. we care .. and I'm glad you posted and I'm glad your Lap Top is working once again .

If I'm not mistaken ..my daughter has a lap top too and it sucks .. she says it over heats alot .. and so she bought the pad that goes under it .. that didnt work .. she sent it away and got it back two weeks later and then she went online and finds out there is a whole bunch of people on line having the same problem with the same make of Lap Top and the company's continue to sell this junk.. knowing it has a flaw or two .

Ok .. I rambled on .. and now I hope you can make it through this jumble of words going no where.

Your Friend Always
Red =^..^=
