Default Hello Icms

Glad to meet you through NT. Just thought to tell you, that sometimes people do accuse disabled folks of using that as a crutch. You know as well as I do that usually isn't the case at all. Most people really have and struggle with those issues we present here. Just pray for that person, and hope her own health problems can be resolved. I hope you are OK, and that your own medical issues have some resolution too. Have a good rest of the day. ginnie

Ginnie, You are so right about being accused of using it as a crutch, and them not understanding the struggles. She is on an anti-convulsant like me, for Epilepsy, and like me has Hydrocephalus. She is bursting with confidence that she can handle anything sent her way. While I admire that. She has also used it against me. She did apologize for that.

My medical issues did flare up Super Bowl Weekend of 2011. When I had a grand-mal seizure. That was the most recent, after 2005. But that was due to exposure from the fumes of resetting the heating tank.
