Just wanna be normal

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

defining normal for me is hard. I dont know what normal is. I have been struggling with depression and severe anxiety since I was 17 years old. I've never had the money to even go to the doctor my whole life, let alone purchase prescriptions. About one month ago I was admitted to the emergency room. Five days later I found out I had a whole in my esophagus from a disease I never knew about. Now after that visit (being my first) I've learned I may have other diseases which include Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Pelvic Inflamatory disease, andmany more. Finding this out, i finally discovered why I may not be having the children that I dream of. If I could have any help, just to find out……

Life Changes

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

For 35 years of our marriage my husband has rarely been to see a doctor much less need medicine on a daily basis. On Dec. 19, I had to take him to the ER because he was having seizures. After 4 days in ICU, he was released. He is now taking 4 Insulin shots every day, three medicines for high blood pressure, and one for seizures. We had no ideal he was diabetic, his blood count was 1295, Yes that is typed right 1295, it should have been 80-to 100. The staff said they had never seen anyone with that high of blood sugar count. Now after being self employed he is unable to work, and his medicine is costing over $500 a month. I have always worked beside him and am unemployed also, so when I found this I have a ray of hope that someone will help us with the high cost of medicine that we are not having to deal with on a daily basis.

RSD

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

I developed RSD in my left arm following a fall on the ice in January of 2004. I have had no use of my left arm since the accident. I recently fell and broke my right leg. I was in a wheelchair for several weeks as I could not use crutches with just the use of one arm. My life has been turned upside down. I used to work 60+ hours per week plus take care of my house and my family. Now, I can not even take care of myself. My husband and two sons (ages 21 and 7) are angels sent from God. I could not have lived the past three years of my life without any one of them. I have gone through surgeries, procedures, implants, pain medications, therapy, etc. during the past three years. My life will never be the same. I feel the worst for my youngest son as he did not get to have the same fun-loving mother his older brother had!
