~Prayers Please~

[Sunshine2]

I don't know if you remember but I had gallbladder surgury in March.

Well, it seems that I'm having complications and have begun getting sent in for some diagnostic tests......had one on Friday.

Have another one coming up in June where they put me under to put cameras in my stomache to find out what is going on down there.

Been having lots of pain and nausea since the surgury.

On a side note: also had a mammogram and now they want to do a biopsy soon.

On top of that: the week before my surgury Voch Rehab finally got approved (I've asked for 15 years since my accident) then only to get closed due to me going to the ER and having these complications (they said I need to be more responsible and do volunteer work, I've done volunteer work my entire life, even before graduating from High School, worked back then too).

In addition: My social security was denied again...so now I gotta do that again.....and I've been notified all my means of support will be ending in a year.....so things aren't looking so well for my future at the moment, I hope I don't end up on the streets.

Thanks for the prayers and for listening.

Sometimes I wonder if there's someone sitting in a closet with a box of pins and a doll that looks like you ... :( Too much at one time. Too much for an entire lifetime.

Try to BREATHE and not take all of this as one gigantic hit upside the head.

Get your health straightened out first. I had my gall bladder taken out in 2000 (that was my Christmas present :mad: ). I didn't recover as fast as 'they' tell you. I have heard that some people still have gall stones left behind in their 'plumbing' after the surgery. I hope it's nothing more than that. I'm adding you to my nightly prayer, sugar.


...they said I need to be more responsible and do volunteer work...


That just makes me furious :mad: Vocational Rehabilitation is supposed to be working to get you back to work -- not back to volunteering, volunteering doesn't pay bills. You said *15 years*. Have you been working with the same person for that entire period?? It sounds like you might need to get out the big guns and speak to their supervisor or maybe to the agency that supplies money to them. Sounds to me like they're not helping at all. And on top of that, they're be really degrading and insulting and dismissive. I wouldn't tolerate THAT for another 5 minutes.

Sunshine, try not to let all this stuff overwhelm you. Take it just a little bit at a time. First the health issues. And a few very strong letters to people that are putting up roadblocks in front of you letting them know that you're sick right now and will deal with it after you're back on your feet.

The financial part of this sounds like bad information from stupid people has been passed on to people who are making financial decisions for you.

I don't know what town or state you live in. But, there's probably a legal aide type of organization in your vicinity that can help with some of this. You might be able to get Legal Aide to write some STRONG, convincing letters for you. I got an eviction notice before my SSDI came through. I was able to get it straightened out with the help of legal aide and, interestingly, my landlord's lawyer. My landlord's lawyer knew of a sort of bridge loan that I could get from the town -- it was something set up by one of the town elders a long time ago. You might check into your town (especially if it's an older town) and see if they have any such plans for helping people.

**YOU** have to believe that you are "not" going to end up on the street. It might take some paperwork and a few letters to supervisors and maybe some support from Legal Aide and the Social Security Forum, but, you are going to solve all this stuff. I believe it.

Gentle hugs (and healing prayers).

Hi Barb and everybody, oh, its been different people all these years, this was like the 5th time I've applied for services from them and the ONLY time they had ever approved me (a week before my surgury)....

More later...I'm nausuous right now.

Thanks for all the prayers and hugs and especially the support too...>!!!!!

Sunshine,
I have been wondering how you are doing! Not as well as I had hoped. I wish I had the answers for you. Sometimes can be so hard and not fair at all!! Keep your head held high, you did not ask for any of this. None of use have. But we all deserve to be treated with care and respect!

Wish others in high places felt the same way! Seems the more power you have you seem to forget or never know how the other half has to live. They would not make it if they were in your shoes! You are strong and I have faith that something good will coma along to you real soon! I have faith and I know you are weak now, overwhelmed with what is all going on!

They are all injustices. Seek out help where ever you can find it! I will be praying for you! Hopefully you can let that sun shine again!

Dreaming big with hope for inner Peace for you!
Love, Javisi;)
