| A little about me: | I used to be a very vital and energetic woman, until an accident caused me to have my 4th cervical fusion. Since then, I've lost jobs due to attendance and have been in constant pain. I take approx. 13 pills a day for nerve pain, constant muscle spasms and cervical pain. I have a hard time explaining to people that this is not going to go away and i'm not going to get better, so I basically isolate myself. I loved my job and am very good at it, but no one will allow me to work from home to assist with those days I can't sit in a vehicle for traffic for up to 5 hours. But, I hope that someone will recognize my will to work and succeed even with this conditon. |
