One thing that really concerns me......I cannot work, and this has been kind of a hobby/fun thing to occupy myself with. Sometimes I cant hardly get out of bed, but manage to at least do this a couple of hours a week.

I m really worried that if we get syndicated......it might get to be tooo much for me, and I would have to let everyone down. Sad thing about RSD is that it makes even the simplest things very very hard. So pray for me that this wont be so taxing on me that I would have to stop.....

Wow! Big Congrats! Very happy for you! I'll take this as inspiration that RSD does NOT have to stop everything!

Congrats!

If you are on any type of disability I would be concerned about how this may be perceived by someone who doesn't understand that, just because you can do something once in a while for a short time, that this isn't how you function daily.

In the event none of this matters and you go forward with this - I do hope you are physically able to enjoy every second of pleasure you get from it.

I am on SSDI, and in the last couple of years worked for Animal Planet, and the National Geographic channel as a producers asst. I reported the hours and amount earned to the Social Security.

It was only while they were in town, and all I did was help to secure the permits and shoot locations. But it was very fun LOL!!

Luckily everyone that does this with me are witness to the fact that im totally limited, and sometimes confined to the bed. So I would have a line of people vouching for me.

That said, if we are picked up by a network. I will try my best to be off disability ;)

Thank you!! :grouphug:

This place is the best!!! You know if it wasnt for the people in this forum I would probably still be sitting in a dark corner of my room staring at a computer monitor. The people here gave me hope that I could focus on what I could do, instead of focusing on what I cant do.

Sure Im a long ways from doing anything like I did before RSD, but if it wasnt for RSD, and everyone here.........I wouldnt be doing this thats fer sure! I am also very lucky that the team of people that have the same passion as I do have been so understanding of my limitations. I guess at first they thought I was faking, but after watching me struggle now for a few years, they are so supportive, and try not to have me take on more then I can handle.

Once I started finding my limits....which are sadly not far from my starting place, I got so caught up in life I kept forgetting to come back here. I wont forget, and also am forever grateful for this forum.

Whoop!!!! Exciting times!! :D

I think that's amazing, well done - and I'd you get the chance to educate even one person about CRPS through it, that'll be HUGE, and you'll be a hero :winky:

You can do this. It's a dream, and when they come along and actually hold out their hand to you, you just have to take it and fly. As far and as high as you can.

Very poetic of me lol. I mean well :p

Bram.

I want to go up where you live and check out some leads I have on some Sasquatch habitation areas! I sure hope your doing well! :hug:

I think its awesome your going to be able to do something you love even if its only "part time" lol. Keep doing what you can. Don't push yourself to act like your whole like the other guys doing this. We may appear whole but we got issues lol.

Hi Allen,

Am I losing my mind or they already showing promos for it? I thought I saw a promo on TV the other night. I could be nuts but I think it is your show being promoted.

allentgamer 09-22-2013 04:06 AM

It could be? They said they were going to upload it to an availability server that any network in the nation could potentially air it from.

You also might see some promos with me in them on Finding Bigfoot. It aired last year.


WOW that would be awesome for the show to be picked up in a lot of places....:Dancing-Chilli:
