Guest guest Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 hi Katrina sorry your day went sooo badly. I am sure you felt overwhelmed that was alot to handle for anyone in a day, much less for someone who is suffering in pain too. I am sorry you had to delay your trip for your bd, sounds like fun. And I know you could use a little of that right now. I hope your boys are both doing better today so you can celebrate your bd and have some fun. Sounds like even relaxing would be good for you right now. Yesterday I forgot but usually when I hurt alot and the pain is driving me nuts I pull out my hynosis cd and listen to it. Its a good way to calm down, focus on relaxing and not the pain or things around me. Sounds like I should send it to you Hang in there I know things will look up for you soon. Such a special person shouldn't have so much bad luck for so long. I'll say a pray for you that this weekend and week are calm and peaceful for you and no accidents happen and that your pain level goes down and you feel better too. YOU deserve that for your bd at least. HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATRINA Sharon Group Owner > > It is my birthday tomorrow and we had made plans and had tickets in > hand to go to a Jazz game this weekend.

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Hello Katrina, I'm so sorry that I have not been able to respond to your post until now. I've been in a lot of pain and just have not been able to sit very long at my computer. I hope that your birthday was a good one and that you were able to push through the pain and hardship of your children being hurt. You have had a lot to deal with and this must have seemed like the straw that broke the camels back[if you know what I mean] How is your husband doing in his job situation? I hope that he has been able to get a job somewhere. I know what it is like to not be working and not to be able to find a job to make ends meet. I can also relate to your situation with the lousy payment form the insurance company about your auto accident. I also had a bad deal with the company of the woman that rear ended me back in October of 03. All I got was a thousand dollars. That was no where enough to begin to pay off the hospital bills that I have has a result of the accident I have no idea as to how I am ever going to be able to pay off what I owe. So I can totally relate to what you are going through with that. You said that you were overwhelmed with all that is going on.I know just how you feel,well ,maybe not totally,since I do not have any children It's hard enough to deal with the every day things of life when you are in pain 24/7. Sometimes it comes to a point that it's just more than you you can handle by yourself. That's when you need help. Now as far as your post being off topic,I just don't think that it was. Your physical problems and your pain has kept you from doing the things that you wanted to do to comfort your children the way that you wanted to.It keeps you from doing things that you desire to do to take care of your family like you want. I can not even begin to comprehend what it is like for you to not to be able to do things with your children that you want to do. Well,I think that I have rambled on long enough,so I will say bye for now. I'll close with this. YOU ARE STRONGER THAN YOU THINK. and THIS TO SHALL PASS MAY YOU HAVE A BETTER DAY TODAY THAN YOU HAD YESTERDAY AND NOT AS GOOD A DAY AS TOMORROW. TAKE AS BEST CARE AS YOU CAN AND BE SAFE LARRY IN COWTOWN { FT.WORTH,TEXAS,WHERE THE WEST BEGINS} REMEMBER ALL OF OUR MEN AND WOMEN IN THE ARMED SERVICE OF OUR NATION PRAY THAT THEY MAY BE SAFE AND SOUND IN BODY AND MIND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 hi Katrina, No greater burden can be borne by an individual than to know no one cares or understands. >It is my birthday tomorrow and we had made plans and had tickets in >hand to go to a Jazz game this weekend. Was going to stay in a hotel >for a couple nights take the kids swimming. Started to become a >tradition, did the same thing last year. And even though pain >interferes drastically we still had an enjoyable time last year. Happy belated birthday, sorry I haven't really been on the computer lately. That's cool that you guys have started a tradition. I keep trying to do something like that for my family but something always comes up and disrupts it. I didn't really have anything like that growing up, but my wife did, and she really likes that sort of stuff; and now I do, but it never works out for us. >But My oldest got hurt at school. Another kid(unprovoked) threw an ice >chunk at him and it hit him in the head. He required 7 staples. We were >still going to make the trip after that. My 13 almost 14 yo is very >resiliant. Can pretty much handle anything and still wanted to go to >the basketball game despite what happened to his noggin. I don't what I would do if someone hurt my boy like that; I'd lose my mind I hope he is doing better. That is some crazy stuff going on all at once. It's rough when it's just one incident let alone a bunch all at once. I couldn't imagine gavin (5yo) in a leg cast; it would break my heart every time I lokked at him. and not being able to pick him up and comfort him-i know that one. >But now my youngest has a broken leg. Rough housing with his older >brother. The went running in for the same object and collided. Of >course the force of a teenager overwhelmed that of a 5 yo.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 Thank you Larry, It is good to hear from you. I have been wondering how you were doing. I hope you were able to get over being sick. It is so hard to deal with even a common cold when you are in pain. I will get headaches from my neck crap. And it can leave me feeling so nauseous. I think I am going to puke about every time. And it is about more than I can take. Sorry to hear that you have been in alot of pain. Now that you have your disability awarded do you also have the medicare? Or do you have to wait the year for that to start? Will you be able to do more medically to get help for your pain now? I certainly hope so. My hubby hasn't found work yet. He is being kind of picky tho. He has to be. He has to have a job that provides insurance. And not just any job w/ ins. It has to be one with a group plan so that I can be covered. The ongoing medical costs are killing us. He probably could go get any job, but can't because of my medical issues. I can not believe what these insurance companies are doing when it comes to MVA's They should be compensating better. At least enough to pay the medical bills. That is just terrible that they gave you such a small amount. Did you have a lawyer to help you? Mine sent out letters to all my medical providers asking them to reduce my bills by 50%. Informing them of the crappy settlement and that there just wasn't enough to go around. Is that something that can be done in your situation to reduce some of the bills? Well it is good to hear from you. Look forward to hearing how things are going your way. Thank you for your kind words. Take care, Katrina :-) > Hello Katrina, > I'm so sorry that I have not been able to respond to your post until now. > I've been in a lot of pain and just have not been able to sit very long at my computer. > I hope that your birthday was a good one and that you were able to push through the pain and hardship of your children being hurt. > You have had a lot to deal with and this must have seemed like the straw that broke the camels back[if you know what I mean] > How is your husband doing in his job situation? > I hope that he has been able to get a job somewhere. > I know what it is like to not be working and not to be able to find a job to make ends meet. > I can also relate to your situation with the lousy payment form the insurance company about your auto accident. > I also had a bad deal with the company of the woman that > rear ended me back in October of 03.
