My hubby and I went to the movies last night-my Mom was here to watch the kids-yeah!! That was all great, but when the movie was over - OMG - I could hardly walk out of the theater!! All these normal people were just rushing out and I was majorly GIMPING!! I don't know if I will go to the movies again until I am feeling better!! My knees actually felt like they might just give out!! CRAZY!!I got off the bus the other day and it was so painful that I went AAARRRGGGHHH in the middle of the street right into the faces of a bunch of folk who were at the bus station - they looked at me like a was insane - think I scared them half to death, although not as much as the pain scared me.
Yeah, that is the reason for "freak-Mart" lol. I feel like a freak everytime I go into public and I mostly end up in Wal-Mart (aka freak-Mart). LOL I hate it when people stare.
I actually had one cashier to ask me how I was doing after my stroke. See, I use to go into Wally Wrold everyday just about back when I was preggos. Did not know the cashiers or even talk to them. But this one said that the other cashiers heard I had a stroke after having my baby and that is why I walk like I do. I guess!!
So, I know people are looking at me all the time. It was fine when I was preggos, because how can you miss a belly poking out 3 feet in front of someone...lol...and in my case try to figure out if I was just fat or really preggos...lol.
Just not fair.

does anyone's meds make the pain better - does it get better when you
start them - I feel so awful thinking of you all and I know exactly
what you mean. I went into town to try and take my mind off the
worry the other day and I went into a book shop with David to get
Austin a new baby book and the first thing I thought was does this
store have an elevator or an esculator coz there's no way I'm making it
to the 2nd floor if it doesn't. I felt like Austin's great gran,
not his mum. It sucks.
