MDJunction to me

"MDJunction to me is a life saver... when i first was diagnosed with Scheuermann's Disease i wrote a message to a page i found on google, hoping that they could help me.... you'd never know it but that weird feeling (you know that one where it feels like someone actually cares) came over me when i opened my email next day to find that someone on the other side of the world (at the American Medical Library)had read my message while i was sleeping, and there low and behold was the address to MDJunction.... well it is everything to me, i live it breathe it and love it!!!!! I have found many people who are struggling with similar issues banding together to help each other. It is the best place in the world, and i couldn't think of another place to go to meet so many lovely people....

thanks MDJunction

Oh, boy! I have an appt with my 5th(?) doctor. Physical Medicine REhab. Don't know what that means. I need pain med mangt. I get so exhausted. I tripped maybe 4-5 times today because I ignored my pain too long. But, my mind was somewhat on today. In that sense I felt functional and had such more of a connnection with my kids.

They could see that mom was able to be some daily mentor of different ideas and stimulation. My daughter is 10 but doesn't listen to me. She holds such little stock in my 'wiseom', whereas, she is so responsive to my husband. Of course, my husband tends to help her learn how to always get her way.

My boy, although sensitive is so much easier to relate to. he listens and respects me. He is somewhat of an artist/oberver like me. Daughter can have a hard time getting out of a wet paper bag, which is so frustrateing, because she is such a smarat, but unvotivated girl.

I have yet to sit down with the family and explain what I now have troubles dealing with in my life and ask their patience and cooperation. Yet another list to make.

So tired. I will not cause myself any more pain than neccessary.
