Just wanted to send my blessings out to ALL and your families.
I am blessed to have YOU~ALL, the forum, the smart and sharing TOS friends here. Even with TOS and the pain we do have a few things to be thankful for, right? We have each other ![]() We are going down to San Diego to spend time with Phil's family. Fun bunch of peeps. The issue is: driving to SD is such a pain I looked into Amtrack and its $87 round trip pp from my house. What a rip on Turkey day. I would be so better off so I can get up and down and not stuck in traffic and be in pain when I get there and then the dreaded drive back. It will all work out some how some way Thats what they make drugs for, right? Gibbrn: I owe you lidoderm patches...pm me your address, k? |

I can't tolerate any drive-travel anymore - and so it ruins the holiday if I try and push it. The shaking and vibrations automatically bring on a flare, as the body muscles try to hold an even stance or posture.
I do make calls, to all of my loved ones, and some who are not-so-nice also, so that even though I'm not there, they know I love them and would be if I could. I get a calling card so that it doesn't cost much, and I really do try to talk to each person there, if they feel like talking, and surprisingly, some want to go into another room and really have a heart-to-heart! If for some reason we really have to go to a family function, everyone now allows me to head straight to "a bed" and I get to sleep, etc., while everyone visits, and I get up when / if I can - everyone has become really accepting of my TOS condition! I live in PJs now for four years. This is so much better than the old game of forcing the drive, forcing the shower / hair / makeup, forcing "party" clothes - cooking - bringing something or gifts, etc. Now everyone knows what I can and can't do, and it's become so much easier on me... god bless everyone on Turkey Day however it is that they celebrate! |
