Good evening,
i just spent the last while reading every single post on this thread.
i was glad when i got to Corkey's post because it answered my question; whether physically challenged folks might find a place amongst the "freaks" *grin*
Bit said: This is what I hate about being disabled, that even when I feel relatively better, I must ALWAYS allow for the pain.
This is how i feel. My physical capabilities are disintegrating and i have to come to terms with my new life.
Or a new chapter in the book called "MY autobiography".
i see myself in many of the people in this thread, in this special place where the "freaks" gather. i am independent to a fault. i cannot do the same things i once could. i need to ask for help.
Oh my goodness, how terribly hard that is, to open my mouth and say "I can't do this. Will you help me?" (sigh)
i also want to say good luck to Andrew Jr. with the upcoming medical situation.
and a helloooooo to my friend becca and her wonderful Daddy, Damon.
More things on my mind, so many, just overwhelming sometimes as i struggle with acceptance
(c/b society, people, myself, the affliction or all of the above)
