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

Judi,
Great to hear from you. Sorry to hear about your Mom. I can understand what you
mean about getting closer. When My Mom stayed with me, we got a lot closer then
I ever thought we would. It was great. Sorry to hear that you can not get any
medical help. Aren't there any clinic fro people with no insur? We have clinic's
here were people go to get help.

Hi Judy CAA

Judy , I am truly sorry to hear about Mom , please tell her from the bottom of our hearts all of us from the whiplash hurts forum, we all wish her a speedy God send recovery . Mom's are very very special, infact I would put Mom's and Dad's on the top of my list anyday , inwhich I miss them both dearly today , I can only imagine how difficult all has been for you too , and hope there is a light at the end of the tunnel for you , a day of sunshine a day of peace a glint of hope, help is coming your way .

It's ok to whine Judy .. it's not whining , it's the truth , we hurt and we suffer due to someone else's stupidity and life goes on ..does not seem fair that we get the dirty end of the stick . Grrr I doubt I'll ever find it in me to forgive those who took my life away the life where I was happy go lucky free of pain , now miserable and barely coping does not seem to cut it , and it really really sucks on this side of the track too ! No you are not whining my friend ...you are just in everything you talk about and it's not fair at all .

Sending you some sunshine to brighten your day and praying all your chief complaints get answers GOD SPEED ....


Judy you are not whining .... if any one whines on this forum it's me OMG ! LOL
This is why we are hear . .if we did not talk .. we would be in a nut ward someone where , as we are unable to comprehend the injustices of the law as we are left to suffer with no help is beyond comprehension my dearest Judy .... YOu whine all you want ... but I still have to say , its not whining .. you are speaking the truth and it's very very sad that you have to suffer and it's not fair , and somehow this has to change .

ok my pain today is off the charts .. if you can make sense of this ..jumble ...
if not.. read between he lines .... and you might get my drift

Hey Red,

Thank you so much for the comforting words when I really needed it. Mom is getting better and I am hoping things will be brighter for her soon. Tomorrow is Easter and I am looking forward to spending it with family and we have a big Easter Egg hunt planned for the kids. I am greatful to have my granddaughter with us this year to hunt for those eggs. She is turning 1 years old on Thursday and it has been amazing to rediscover things through her eyes! That is the best medicine out there but somedays it hurts just to pick her up! You know I have to try to stay focused and positive because somehow this will work out with the insurance or else I have a long, painful life ahead of me. You are so positive and that is what I need right now. Sorry you are having a painful day but sending you some wishes for better days ahead.

Judi

CAC,

Thank you so much for you care and it really helps to have a place like this that people understand. I have said it so many times before but unless you have lived through this pain day to day you can't understand.
The clinics around here on take cash only and I did find one doctor recently who takes reduced fees so I only paid him $20 a visit but not just got a letter saying it will be $60 plus whatever treatment you have. With no job or income it is difficult plus he doesn't believe you need medicine for chronic pain. I am all for anything to help right now and I told him that but in my heart I feel like I just need something to help me get by on those really bad days. Oh well, thanks for listening.
