Guest guest Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Barbara, no he has not been seen by anyone at the Pain Management Clinic...Where is it located? Do they do anything else with RSD other than pain? I guess right now is a starting point or even better, a rough plan - of where to go, what to do, ect. My father is more knowledgeable on the subject of RSD. Like I've already said, I'm just beginning to learn. I'm just trying to find out the steps he should take to start coping with this through the help of those few people that are knowledgeable in this field. God bless, Kathleen > Kathleen - Has he been seen by folks at a Pain Management Clinic and received blocks or anything? It's a good place to start and they would work in concert with his other doc.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Vent Away my dearest Barbara - you are my very first letter on my new computer.... venting is good for you - it lets out all the bad air so that you can fill your lungs and soul with good air and good energy to drive you further along your journey. You know that I am always here for you - in good times, great times, bad times, horrible times, and yes - even now.... I will always be here - we all will always be here for you - so PLEASE keep venting - it is good for you and your soul. You vent in a positive way, productively... moving forward, even when you yourself think that you are not. I can see in your writings that you are. You are very right - the system is very flawed - up here and down there.... it is full of crap at best.... it does not protect the ones it should.... but, I also know that it has met one formidable opponent this time.... and for that I am starting to feel sorry for the system NOT. YOU my dear friend, are a wealth of knowledge, and people in the know, contacts in the right places, and within you a "raging Irish bull" - So, vent out all the bad air... fill your soul with good and productive good energy, get some good rest... you have time to rest, the fight is long and arduous.... so rest now... take care of YOU - know that within this group you have the backing of a "little army of proud friends, family and supports" - I love you, I am here for you, I will be there for you if ever you should need or want me to be. My heart full of love to you, is a soft pillow for your tired soul to land and peacefully find some rest. FayeBARBARA wrote: .. BS. And this is after watching people scame system for years and, in my opinion, seeing people get state assistance for the most absurd things....reducing the amount that would otherwise go to the people who most deserve it. Good grief. Til now, I have sucked up the financial end of this as I didn't want to use the board as a I crying and moaning session over money matters. Howver, this is one messed up system. I'm sad. I'm pissed. I'm scared. Between my own situation which pales in comparison to Elsie's and the added financial stress and leaving the work (and co-workers) that I've loved, I'm just done in. Don't get me wrong, I'm not giving up. I am, though, flooded with feelings that are as fickle as they can be. As always there's also less important crap that I won't bother with here but I'm pooped and won't vent further. Soooo, I'm reading the posts and responding to as many as I can....no slight intended to anyone. Love you, Faye and all that are still reading to this b^tchc on wheels Barbara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Dear Barbara, I am so sorry things are rough for you right now. It must be so incredibly hard to have your condition force you out of something that meant so much to you and was part of your identity – you must be so angry and frustrated. I think on different levels we can all relate. Hang in there hon, I hope some sunshine comes your way very soon. Aly -----Original Message----- From: BARBARA Mood still is pretty bad here and really stretching from inside just to communicate with anyone. Have really felt the need to take space from everything.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Barbara Im behind again on posts but I read yours and my heart goes out to you. So much has been going on in your life between not working and Elsie and having to worry about how youre going to make money stretch to simply survive. In a country where so many are simply handed money by the Government it makes me so angry that those of us who have actually worked for a substantial amount of time cant even get minimal assistance to help get by. I wish that I had some solutions on how to get past these rough patches. I dont and Im so$$y. I know that things happen for a reason but it would be nice if those circumstances could at least come with some sort of small reward for having suffered through it. Im sure that somewhere in this chaos there is a solution and between all of us perhaps we can solve some of the issues at hand. In the meantime dear Barbara, get some much needed rest, enjoy your times with Elsie and try and take it one day at a time. We will all be pulling for you and trying to (Im sure) come up with some ideas to help you. You are in my thoughts as always Love Donna > Mood still is pretty bad here and really stretching from > inside just to communicate with anyone.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Thanks, Laurie. There are a lot of ways to scam the system. With what I've seen others do over the years, I could probably teach a course in it....Hey, maybe that's how I could augment my income. You don't want to know the secrets. They're ugly, dishonest, and you'd feel like caca in the morning. Love - barbaraRoepkelaurie@... wrote: Barbara, VENT< VENT AWAY TIS GOOD FOR THE SOUL AND MIND. I'M HERE FOR YOU.
