I've been under some real stress lately, and feeling really terrible.
It affects my tbi, in addition to the rsd. And, I lose my way, and do stupid things.

This apology is to Dew (Linda) and all my other friends here.

I feel that I "walked" on her thread, when all she was trying to do, was update us on herself.

So, I am sorry!



You all know the pain that these changes in weather brings, I'm of course having that, (As I know most of us are). And, you may know of my attack of the Giant-Tiny spider. (I think maybe the steroids have made me ill). I've been having a low grade fever, sleeping, not sleeping, not eating, feeling nauseous, it's evil when you live alone, too.
And, of course appointments with my lawyer, more than an hour away, which I know I won't make it to tomorrow. I've been feeling worse for weeks now, and I haven't been able to prepare.

I'm on the edge of going to the ER.

I WILL talk to my doctors office tomorrow, that's an appointment I will keep.

So again, my apologies for typing out of turn, and once again, it's time to "Brush Off" and get back on the horse...

Thanks to all for being such good friends!



Pete

Dear friend..
I'm sorry your going through terrible tough times, and that your bearing it alone..
What a time for a spider to visit and lash out !! Didn't that spider know you already had enough on your plate??

Pete, the weather outside is cooling and probably adding to your pain level.... and for you friend, it seems when it rains, it pours, with everything you are dealing with...

Even though you didn't have the strength or stamina to prepare for the lawyer stuff, ya just have to let it go....and not let it add to your stress..

Pete, please drink plenty of water and at least what you're able to eat, try and make it somewhat nutritious...I don't mean to nag but it's important to keep yourself nourished and hydrated..

I know it's awful when your body is out of sync and all the natural rhythmns of eating and sleeping are erratic and out of wack....
Eventually you'll regain some equilibrium..hang in there..
I'm glad you're able to make an appointment with your doc..
Listen to some good music..it might help you get on an even keel...
Sending you lots of thoughts and hugs
Hope4thebest

Pete,
I am so sorry you are going through so much right now. It never seems to end but you've got to hang in there. We are your friends and we understand and we are here for you as you have been here for us. I am going through a stressful time right now as well and with these weather changes it's crazy. Fall has always been my favorite season with the beautiful colored leaves.It's just not the same but I will not let this monster get the better of me.

Hang in there,we're here for you.

Hi Pete,
I always read your posts and didn't notice anything. And if you wrote while on our dear Linda was up dating us, we know she would understand.
I actually have had the flu for 3 months. I had 10 days of meds buy it wasn't enough it came back. Today is actually my best day.
I have some good information I'll write on the board tomorrow about flu shot and h1n1 shot.
My immune system is so low, I don't know what to do. Are you getting the flu shot or the h1n1 shot?
I'm so sorry you are going thru this stuff. I know a trial against a cpa who forgot to file our extension on my dad's estate cost us big time. It is so stressful fighting in court. I can truly empathize with you in this trial.
Just know you are a good humble friend to all of us and we certainly would not take any action or inaction as being cruel from you. Your caring , kind ways come thru on your posts that we all enjoy reading.
Hang in there-we care your friend loretta soft hugs

Your heart always seems to be in the right place. Don't sweat the little things.

Hang tough and get to feeling better.

Hey Pete,

I have been off the boards for a few days so I'm not sure what you are apologizing for. However, we have all found ourselves in a position of apologizing. Chronic pain and all it's other side effects cause us to say and do things we normally wounldn't do or say.

I hate that you are going through so much while living alone. Do follow the advice on drinking and eating what you can you don't need dehydration on top of everything else.

Take time to ask God for help. Ask him for the the strength, energy and wisdom to get through whatever life brings your way. I find myself asking for for these things quit often and he has never failed me.

Hang in there and reach out to a friend if you need some help with food or getting organized for you attorney appt. Do call you doctor. PM me if you need to talk

Take care,
Sherrie

Dear Pete,

What are friends for? In order to have friends, you have to be a friend, right?

Please take it easy and don't sweat the small stuff.

XOXOX Sandy

Pete,
I am so sorry you are having a rough time, with the weather on top of it. I agree with Bobber, the prednisone pack is the devil to me as with so many other drugs. So, take a deep breathe and relax. We all know where you're coming from.

To all my Dear Friends,
I can't tell you how much I appreciate all you say, and your advice, I'm going to take it ALL! You Are All Correct, and Hit the Nail on the Head!
I don't want to say more right now, since this apology was directed mainly at Linda (DEW).
She is my friend, as well, and it's Her Respect and Friendship that I don't want to hurt, in anyway.

I did need to postpone the attorney today, but, did talk to my Doc's office.

Heartfelt Thanks to Every One!
Peace and Love to All!

Pete
