Re: To all those with Congenital Hip Dislocation

[Guest guest]

I don't blame myself. Lord knows I'd be crazy now if I let it get to me. You and I think very much alike on this stuff.

and her fella have talked about marriage but they are waiting. They have both been burned a couple times so they are being sure. Take care,

I tell mine I can bring you water~ hand you the glass but ultimately you have to swallow for it to be drank or one can thrist to death! I got in some trouble myself at a way younger age so mine kinda have a benefit to being preached at by someone that's been there done that deal. If that's the road they choose not one earthly thing I can do about it. My prayers are that they'll learn from

my mistakes and not have ones similar... course time will tell.can pass this to yours, to watch who your friends are. Good friends will keep you out of trouble but bad ones will get you into trouble >>> I've taught mine~ true friends can usually be counted on less then 3 fingers! They are people that respect you for WHO YOU ARE and don't try to get you to "comply" to be who they'd like for you to be. Mostly a real friend excepts "NO" for an answer and doesn't try to swag your decision after they've heard your choice spoken! I'm VERY picky about

my kids friends... know all too well what bad ones can do for ya~ course my friends didn't twist my arm & make me do.... I lacked self confidence & always doubted my choices way back when. I make my kids THINK and THINK HARD! Even when their punished the first words outta my mouth are~ this is what you've done, this is why it's wrong, you need to think about what you should've or could've done differently to have a better out come... and generally their punishment is something that reiterates enforcing rules & complying with limitations. Best thing I ever did was start into child psychology... it's been a HUGE benefit to me as a mother!I don't condone the premarital sex (my beliefs here take it or leave it), but we already love the baby she is carrying. >>> I would "perfer" that mine marry, settle down, kids bla bla bla and do it more the "Godly" way~ but society as a whole is okay with it all and have to say.... if their at least commited to the relationship then it's better then most these days! I've told mine what I would perfer~ but I also make it clear that if you don't love someone enough to marry for the right reasons then don't bother saying "I do" just because there's a baby in the picture! You can be a responsible parent without a spouse but you can not be a responsible spouse if your unhappy & chances are your kids will come closer to being neglected.My parents divorced when I was 17 and it is hard. But I think the arguing and fussing are harder.

>>> Agreed. Mine divorced when I was about 7 brother was 5. Lord knows we'd been better off if they'd actually done it YEARS BEFORE but for us as kids we got drug unwillingly into the battle plan~ and what was bad enough turned to WAY WORSE! My parents did the worst which was expose us to their problems~ I grew up and seldom so much as hugged on the other for fear it would spark another fight on who I cared about most. Got to hear all the your dads a low life this and your moms and that~ plus the bonus of actually fist fighting in front of us. They'd either both show up at school functions and show their butts or neither would show up at all~ sheesh I could go on but why bother. I broke the cycle with my kids... sadly my brother is repeating it with his. The kids pay the highest price of all... and it's

not just what time their exposed to it all~ it follows throughout their life choices. Actually took me a counselor to work though all the issues... my brother feels "they are merely brain pickers that laugh about others problems in their spair time". Took me 27 yrs. to actually speak my mind to them being a parent myself~ but boy what a relief off the chest! LOLI have made peace with all of it now. I had to because it was making me crazy. >>> My mom used to blame herself for my mistakes. Granted as a parent she had her share of mistakes as we all do.... but boils down to~ she taught me not to steal, lie, kill, do drugs, and all the other issues & she would

whip me on occasion, ground or whatever... so she did her part. I choose what to listen to... what to learn from and what I wanted to experience for myself~ that she couldn't control. Sometimes... it takes us learning a hard knock on our own regardless how who or how often we're warned about the issues.... so don't blame yourself in anyway. Because you raised your son the best way you knew how to.... he became at some point old enough to make choices for himself and YOU by far were not the only "teacher" within his life.... he however didn't choose wisely enough! God bless you!__________________________________________________

and her fella have talked about marriage but they are waiting. They have both been burned a couple times so they are being sure. >>> My poor hub waited 7 yrs. before I would say I do.... for the every same reason. And I didn't want people seeing us as a common law marriage. Marriage was just a much huger committed issue to me and I didn't want it taken lightly! We've been together almost 15 yrs. now. I vote better to wait if you have any uncertainy~ plus way cheaper then having to pay for a divorce these days! In my opunion Lord looks down no more upon living together then remarrying with a living spouse after a divorce still be judged accordingly when the day comes.

They can't even afford to live together right now. She only works part time and he is on disability. He hurt his back in a car accident. He is divorced because his ex cheated on him. had been hurt. So both of them are waiting. would never cheat. She knows how that hurts, so she couldn't do it to someone else.

My hub and I have been together for 26 years now. We were careful too, but got married pretty fast after we met. Three more days to Monday and a new knee. I'm counting them down.

Thank you, thank you. I'll miss all my groups, too. I am in a couple for diabetics and for asthma. I got my share of problems but I refuse to quit. Now it's 2 and counting down.

Hi Sassy Lou,

I have pain in my right hip that I had the replacement in my dr that did the operations said I had bad scar tissues and the new dr said I have Bursitis in my hip I had replace and thats way it hurts and I don't have any ROM in my new hip . I take Naproxen 500mg two times a day it helps but it doen't take all the pain away but it helps me walk a little better.Well I hope you won't have to have a operations on your back . you will be in my prays .Thanks for listening to me .

Susie

--Love, Susie

-------------- Original message -------------- I found out that reason I walk so slow and still hurt is because of my Spine >>> Me too Susie although I do still have some pain in my hip~ it's not what it once was thank the Lord. My neurologist is wanting to do surgery to "TRY" to correct my back problems but he didn't give such good odds for my liking and advised due to my curved spine it would be risky business compaired to a "normal" back. I've tried about everything outside of surgery to relieve the pain with no luck. I don't want to eat pills daily to fix the problem so I've went to a pain patch on occasion when my muscle flares and my tens unit with ice which relieves it some~ just depends on how bad of a day it is. I tried specified PT to see if strengthening would make a difference, lumbar steriod injections, electronic stimulation and nothing~ oh well.... everybody has to have something wrong... back is just one of my issues. LOL But I'm still blessed.

> How did you get your dr to let you take Celebrex they took them off

the self > here >>>

Celebrex did not work well for me so I switched to Arthrotec which

worked fine. Arthrotec = diclofenac sodium and misoprostol

tablets .. It comes in 50 or 75 mg doses and the misoprostol is a

stomach buffer.
