They are willing to pay for shots, all of them and all the narcotics, but not to actually do something about it, so the problem ends. Just the in and out of the doctors offices is allowed.
That is just crazy!!!

Type of therapy called neuro muscular therapy. Hurts like hell and you cry the whole time. However, it seems to be getting better.
Glad to hear it is getting better. Thank goodness your son is able to help. It's great that you are seing results already. That's encouraging!

The day before I had an accident however. [...] Well, I fell half way through the project, twisted my already bad ankle.
Is your ankle damaged from the fall?

My neighbor finished my project. However NO one really offers to help someone in this neighborhood who is disabled. Oh they see you in bad shape Alright, and they see a huge branch I cannot possibly drag to the pile. Do you think anyone at all would offer to help me? Drag the branch to the pile? Once I was on the ground, Norman who I don't know very well, helped me up. He did, ask to help me.
I'm sorry, Ginnie. I am glad Norman was there and willing to help. Do get help with the ceiling fans and other treacherous tasks in the home, if you can, but don't sweat it too much. Really, if there isn't structural damage, a litttle dust should not hurt your market value too much. Do what you can, and let the rest be. It will be ok. The new owners can bring their own elbow grease and young muscle.

You are a brave, brave woman, and an inspiration to us all. Certainly to me.
