MDJunction to me

tomboykimi"What MD Junction means to me is a place where i can feel like im not alone. As someone with something as rare as hydrocephalus, it feels like im the only one in the world with it. When i came to MD, its like everyone has it. It doesnt feel like im alone. And that people need to hold up a sign to say what i have, because people know. And they understand. I can get questions answered from people who have been through it rather than from doctors or people who only can tell you from a physical standpoint. THat is what MD junction means to me."

I worked third shift for a long time as well, when I worked security. At one point in time, I worked 12 hour shifts, 7 days a week, for 6 months without a day off. Oh I had days off scheduled, but something would always come up and I would have to work, even if I'd stayed up all day to run errands and things. I think this is why I got fibromyalgia in the first place. That the stress of that schedule and sleeping during the day against my body's natural cycle, turned on the dormant gene for fibro in my body. This is why I'm really not looking forward to working 3rd agan!

Today is my last day of freedom! Or so I assume. Safety orientation in the morning, and hopefully full time after that. <Sigh>
