Default Well

Let's not forget Fanfaire who made that trip through the sleet and rain
had to go back to Mayo through all that again.
Kemb has been through it all,we have gone through,many of the
same things. I had PN before my legs were crushed in a head on collision.
I was near a tiny hospital,with a bad reputation,but I couldn't say
I'll walk 60 miles back to Columbia,because no matter how many people
I asked accept the man,holding my hand on the side of the road would
answer my question ,are my legs still there.

Everything at the hospital didn't work mri's out,e-rays out so on,I was there for hrs. I guess there phones were out,they finally called my mom
very late at night,even though I begged,call my son,we will when the Dr.
gives us permission...I new that ER DR. for years,asked for something for pain,
not yet , finally they made the calls to family. Son said fly her to Unversity
or i'll come and get her. They had a Othopedic Dr.who is no longer one,
I'm yelling get him in here,back comes ER Dr. will you come back to see
him what no,he never came.My mother called my neuro where I live,she called
ER,he said we are going to really dope you up and fly you to the truma center
where old Sue lives. They knocked me out,but took me by amblunce,didn'
let anyone know. So i'm in a wheelchair after years and still lots of PT.
Do I have pain you bet. My middle finger was pushed down in my wrist,
and shattered,lung collapased,and so on.

I take pain meds. and suppliments but it's meditation and a very weird sence of humor...D is right it is like being on a roller coaster for a lot of us,but
I'm hanging on for as long as I can..life is hard but can be so good as well.
but sometimes I cry that's a theraputic thing as well..There's a darling
Bobby who writes The world is not made for wheelchairs,it's mot. But
you just do your best,,that's all anyone can do...My hand hurts and so do
your eyes..Polyneuropaths and more. We are different but so much alike.
