Donna - That would be terrific. Maybe if my wings don't get clipped (the driving thing), we could even pull off meeting half way. Not sure where that would be but my guess is that it would fall somewhere between Sturbridge and Worcester. Thanks for keeping the idea alive. BarbaraDonna wrote:

Barbara,

don't worry about meeting us half way....between the 2 of us we can switch off and get there and back with no problem. I would like to do it before the snow starts to fall. I will talk to donna and find a good day for us to do this...and then get back to you guys with possible dates....Hugs..GinnyBARBARA TORREY wrote:

Barbara, What really stinks is when you CAN drive, but you can't go very far and you need to have someone go with you if you're going shopping because you can't carry the things you need to get or push a shopping cart. Or else you just don't feel up to driving but you have to do it anyway because the only person you have that can go with you to help you DOESN'T drive. Which means even if I did have a doctor worth going to, I have to drive. I mean, don't get me wrong, it's nice that I'm still able to, but sometimes I wish that I didn't have to, ya know? Ok, I'm whinning again. Time to stop. Hugs, Faith

Re the hating to have to help with things DITTO. My turn to add to the whine. It especially is provoking when you can't even pull off transportation to the doctor's. This is just too much sometimes. I usually as so emotionally good at keeping things in proportion but even that has been a struggle lately. I don't know, folks. Barbara Find the music you love on MSN Music. Start downloading now!

Are up two speaking of us all getting together in April or May or is this

something between the 4 of you? Just wonder as since know asked Ginny to

figure out with help of ya'll and perhaps Dawn and Jo who all might know

area you live in, where I could meet ya'll and not be hardship on any of

you. I so looking forward to just picking up some bread, meat, etc and

sitting around, playing cards, talking, laughing even crying if need to, but

most of all meeting ya'll face to face and actually feeling your arms around

me in a hug. Oh you have no idea how much I look forward to this. Think

Barbara knows that been a year or so been trying to get to you all and now

actually in process of starting this. I really am very sorry need someone

to pick me up at closest airport though as hate to cause anyone pain levels

to go higher due to extra driving. Anyway, just want to thank you Barbara,

Donna, Ginny and Tricia for the effort and gift of your time to see me and

others able to join. What an absolute thrill this all is. Thank you each

for such a gift that never will be forgotten, and gift so special. Many

prayers and gentle hugs

Love

I can only imagine how difficult this is... though I am starting to understand more. I am having a great deal of difficulty driving and the reality of not being able to drive is quite scary. I very rarely drive anyway, as Doug does most of it now, but just the mere thought of not being able to get in a car and drive gives me panic attacks.

You must, however, be thanking your lucky stars for your Doctors. It must be very reassuring knowing they are doing all they can to give you the best quality of life possible.

Hugs,

Jo

I am, Jo, I am. Just hoping that tomorrow goes okay. I don't know if they will "tip their hand" to me tomorrow to let me know if I have passed so it might be hard to give you an update afte the evaluation. I'll try though. Thanks again for the support. You're terrific. Barbarajomal1@... wrote:
