RA House | Arthritis Information

I think we need to come up with a RA House were we can all go when we are at our worse financially or physically to be around people just like us and have each other to help us thru our hard times.

RA'er's UNITED!!

It can be kinda like a halfway house. We help each other out financially and physically and just be there for each other. And then the way we contribute back is the ones who are doing well can make things to sell to support the ones who need to be supported and to help pay for the house.

Just an idea. Sounded good when I was thinking about it.

It can be kinda like a rehabilitation center, except everyone is treated right and takes care of each other, because everyone knows how the others are feeling because they have been thru it.

Everyone gets their own quaters... you know like the old foogy projects....

anyways sounded good to me.

 

Okay...but we would have to check on each other more than just once a week!!!

Well we can live in the towers... it is another place like the old foogy projects except it is smaller apartments with an elevator and are close quarts and easy to keep tabs on everyone then

 

We could have a system of stomping on the floor for the neighbors below and bumping the ceiling with a broom handle for the neighbors above...we could just pass it up from the ground floor to the top!

Good idea... but what about the ones who are having shoulder problems that day and cannot relay the "message" and then everyone thinks they croaked?

Yeah... I can see it now.... bump bump bump... no bump...

Everyone heads to the 4th floor and then cautiously opens the door... and then find that person sitting in their nice comfy chair watching wheel of fortune and looking all crazy at everyone busting up in their pad

Oh better yet the person was on the toilet at the time of the "you still around" bump and then everyone storms the bathroom while the person is on the pot.

Yep, yep, yep... funny as heck visuals! I can see them in my head

 

Hey that is just part of the securtiy checks...either you bump or get raided..we could make a rule...like if you get raided and there is nothing wrong with you then you have to provide a snack to all who have arrived. The house should come with it's own pharmacy and high speed wireless internet.  And 24 hour room service.  We never know when we are going to be hungry.

Oh!! OH!! And an in-house laundry pick up service!

Yep, yep, yep... we would all be just duckie then!

 

I like this idea.   They have houses like that on the East Coast for the mentally ill.  They are very successful.  Community is always more successful than autonomy. 

 

One thing is for sure...it would have to be in a big city with lots of access to really good medical care. And it needs a pool...heated...indoor..and a hot tub.

It needs a massage therapists too!!!

Where can I join??  LOL

I want my own in house pharmacy too!   Phatgirl2
 We could probably make that pharmacy business a success!

 

I know some "street pharmacists"

 

That doesn't help does it?

I'M KIDDING. I don't really know any. It's just a funny term. LOL

OK  If you all are willing to move to Oregon - I will start looking for grants

 

Move again.  YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING

 

Oh, didnt you hear? We will provide a complimentary moving service....

AZ sounds good. Then I wouldn't have to move far, but Crunchy and Roxy would. I really don't think either of them are going to give up their new places, they sound too nice.

I definitely want the personal cleaning service. "Do the floors for me honey, will you? And, those dishes, how I hate the dishes."

Best part would be sitting out on the veranda (we have to have one of those right) with all of you and sipping our favorite drinks. I bet we'd have a royal time. First, we cry. Then, we'd be laughing our heads off for hours.

"There's no crying in baseball!"

Gimpy baseball

Now that would be a sight.

bases loaded with 2 people with walkers and the one who is trying to steal home has a cane.

 

And a catcher that sits comfortably in a recliner instead of squatting.  The short stop uses a hover-round. LOL I want a bat boy, a really cute bat boy.

I want LOTS of cute bat boys, I'm single you know.

Can the bullpen have cute male waitstaff?  It's hot in summer.  I need iced tea.  I am not single.  But I can look at the menu, just not order off of it. 

I want doors that open automatically! No more keys, or twisting door knobs, or pushing or pulling.

I've always wanted to run the bases fast - a souped up Hover Round sounds pretty good. Better yet I'll ride a Nimbus 2000 like Harry Potter's.

 

Oh, Gramma, go for it.  Try something ala cart.  What happens in the RA house, stays in the RA house!  Endorphins are theraputic!

This would be the best house EVER!!  Grammaskittles, I'm with you!

We definately need the cute male waitstaff.
