hi from lynn

[Guest guest]

sorry havent been in touch in a while but i do browse through all your messages

on

occasion-lots of new people thats good--welcome to you all--and kerri dont worry

about

the cane i have been usuing one for 4 years now-one of the first times i went

out with it a

little girl ran into me in the store and she looked up and smiled and i said

''thats ok

honey'' then she saw my cane and let out a blood currdling scream and ran to her

father-

the mother then screamed ''she almost knocked over a cripple lady " " i cried all

the way

home.i cannot use a simple cane i use a forearm crutch because i need balance

more--you

should try to dee the difference-and to tell which one works the best for you

cause there

is a huge difference in the feel.

it is a part of my life now-so i started a collection of them--to make it seem

less

depressing.if i am going to a small get together i will still use a regular cane

but for long

outings or bad days i use the forearm one-which i might add came out with a new

euro

version whick only weighs about 3 pounds and comes in colors and is sooooooo

much

nicer and less noticable..yes i have a phantom cane for dress all black-with a

rose

topper...i have a parrot head one/ wooden--for summer--and irish walking

stick..and i

just got a polish walking stick from poland it looks like an axe--its my way of

dealing with

it all--no more heavy metal scary ones!!!!

i think last time i wrote i was c/o being weak--i was unable to get out of bed

for 2-3

weeks so now they have tagged on chronic fatique syndrome--my b/p was 70/30-- i

was

sooooooooooooo weak......just had to wait for it to pass-they are all connected

these

diseases--not much ya can do.i also have started getting physical therapy in my

home for

2 frozen shoulders i never even new i had??? oh well everyone hand in

there.........
