I haven't been around too much because being on the computer is so painful, I'm so tired and when I do have energy it seems I using it to fill out more paperwork for disability.
But as I do that, I am following suggestions made by a lot of you here to go back and read some of my comments to make sure to document how much RA and FM affects me.
As I did this, I realize once again how kind and supportive all of you are. I will try and be around more. Some days, just reading is all I can muster.
I am making progress with my voice recognition software and hopefully that will let me eventually stay in touch more.
Anyway, just wanted to say that I do care about my friends that I've met here and how really special I feel that you are.
Thinking of you.
Take Care. Miss seeing you more often.
Everytime my knees hurt I think of you......that doesn't sound very nice but you know what I mean. The SSD paperwork alone will keep you busy for days.
Try and get out in some of this beautiful sunny weather. Don't know what it's like in Phoenix but it's been so nice here in Yuma. Take care
Deanna, your excellent advice and comments are a highlight to all of us, but I do understand your situation. I personally feel that you are the big sister that understands everything and we all need that. I hope that your situation improves Deanna and I will pray hard that it does.
Thanks everyone. The constant paperwork makes me feel like I am working full time. And, they give you so little time to turn it around. It is so discouraging to write down all that is wrong with me and how it affects my functioning.
These last papers are for Pain and Function. But I have to get them back into their office within 10 days of the time they sent the letter. That doesn't sound too bad unless you are exhausted and sick. How come they get so much time and I don't?
But at least it is progressing.
Deanna,
