Dear Grasshopper,

How are you feeling this morning?

Please understand that once one is in a "positive space" they must "proceed with caution."

Everything one does in their lifetime is a learning experience; we must take it in perspective and move, not on but forward.

Do not forget that you are not judged here.

I need you help on a situation............

Are you going to deny a friend his "special request" ?

Take care
God Bless

Dear Grasshopper,

It is good to know that you are "hopping about the grass."

The problem that I had was figuring out how to get you posting when you were "under the weather." (sneaky but effective)

Mission accomplished.

Have to go to church; I will definitely post later because there is something that I am trying to get out but cannot seem to find the right words.

Take care
God Bless

Ok sneaky FTM----- As I always said I may not be here all the time with something to offer but i will check in everyday to see if anyone's needs me. So as you can see even with a floating head:dizzy: I keep my word. I will be back later to see if the words come to you.

Love,
Grasshopper

GH,(hop,hop,hop)

In the name of Justice, I have been contacting any and every government official and organization possible, in order to show everyone that I am not lying and to be quite honest, it has taken it's toll on me.

My body seems to be "shutting down" and my mind is not too far behind.

I ask myself at this juncture, "where is my attorney" but I realise that I am not the only client of theirs.

Without me realising it, I have shifted my priorities or quite possibly, this is the way things were from the beginning.

I am annoyed at a system that allows insurance companies to do whatever they want, whenever they please.

I know that these are billion dollar corporations but the size of the fight in this dog remains the same and it is not beneficial to my health and well being.

It has become an obsession of mines.

I cannot escape the accident because my pain is a constant reminder; it has and is affecting my entire body.

I just pray that this is all worth the effort; the surgeries that must be performed, the hours of waiting in doctor's offices, the amount of physicians, specialists and therapists seen; the medications (enough said).

I could go on and on but it seems moot to me.

What hurts me; truly and deeply is my inability to be there for my daughter as I would like; I know what I was capable of doing and it is a far cry from what I am doing now.

It's not so much of long question, as it is an enduring statement.

FTM,

I am butting in, I know so forgive me. If it were me, I would let it go, but we are all different, and you have made up your mind to go after this full throttle. Just be careful that this doesn't backfire and end up leaving you in worse health that you are now.....

I wish you well in you fight for justice!!!!

Hugs,

Sid

My Dear FTM******* You are where I was in the summer. Hurt several body parts, WC denied (which to me in any insurance case when denied it is a feeling of being called a liar, cheat and thief) all things I am not even close to being. It started in May and by the end of August I was out of my mind and the body didn't work at all. The anger , fear and frustration at my co-workers for not helping me so I didn't get hurt and then not even offering me a ride home, my employer who I have been loyal to for 20 years knowing the job I do and knowing full well that all these injuries "fit" the description of the job I was doing , still being turned down and the IC for lying about having no "out-of-work" note from a dr.which they did have, really sent me into a tailspin. I hired an attorney and wrote to my Congressman and State Representative not so much looking for anything but I had to tell them what I thought of this corrupt insurance system of ours. The government should oversee what they do , and put a halt to what is allowed to be done by insurance co.'s. They pay Dr.'s to lie and pay them alot of money while citizens are being hurt and pushed out of their livelihood and their lives are made a shambles. It took me months of trying to fight this, along with the pain and getting nowhere. finally my mind snapped. I didn't leave the house and was obsessed with my fight to "win". Once my mind was out of control and my body would no longer function I had to make a choice, them or me. I chose me. I spent 4 months crying from the anger and fear as to what was brought on me. Finally one day I woke up and decided to live. Nothing was as important to me except my family, my mind and getting my body back to the best it can be. When i watch my husband carrying al the groceries I want to cry as he has 2 disks removed from his back. but i cannot lift anything except my tea cup and only with my right hand. Can put very little pressure on my right foot and my right knee still buckles so i never know when i'm going down. Back, neck and shoulder are in pain 24/7. Will I be having shoulder or neck surgery or both???? I don't know. So far PT has eased some of the muscle cramping in my neck but that's it since May. I have decided that when i go to court next week that win or lose there will be no appeals. I want my life back. I will heal as best I can but this BS from corrupt agencies throws my mind out of whack . it just pisses me off to the point of "no return". I tried , I gave it my best shot and can't do anymore. It has hurt me more than helped and yet I have always been a crusader for "fairness". So that all being said I can't answer your question as to whether it will be worth it all but will tell you it is your decision. Tread lightly. They are ugly, ugly people and want nothing good for you. always keep that in mind. Also i understand your feelings about your daughter and what you can/cannot do. FTM it is all so troubling. you just have to set a boundary about how far you will go and keeping in mind the effect it is having on you body and mind how much more you will allow them to take away from you. I no longer have the bodily tension I had. Shoulders scrunched up around my ears from tension. This was my choice to let it go at a certain point which is next week. I could continue to fight but don't wish to expose myself to this crap anymore so I am done, win or lose. Not sure if this is what you were looking for but you need to know that I did the same thing so i truly understand. I will be by your side with whatever you decide and however long you decide to pursue this just please if you're not in the right frame of mind one day let it go if only for that day. build up some strength and go get them again.

My Prayers always,
Grasshopper

Dear Sid,

What you call "butting in" I call reaching out and it is deeply appreciated.

Your words of wisdom will definitely be taken into perspective.

I am going to write a sincere and heartfelt letter to the Governor and let God take care of the rest (at least that is what I am trying to convince myself).

Then FTM please let grasshopper help you along with that decision. It is truly a wise one and you are a wise man. Write it, mail it and let the powers above take it from there. I do believe Insurance co.s do their best to be corrupt but I have gotten responses from my Congressman more than willing to help. Give it your best shot and then please sit back and rest and recoup a little. Best advise has been given here by people who truly care and have been in your situation.

Love and Hugs,
Grasshopper

Dear Grasshopper,

I hear you loud and clear.

I am going to write a letter to the Governor and see what comes of it.

I will focus my energies into writing it, send it off via email and certified parcel; then I pray that I will feel some type of closure.

I'm at a crossroads.

And that my friend is why i wrote that lengthy post to you. I wanted you to see that you are not alone and what this crusade can and will do to you. Take your time writing and read it over and over to make sure you have said what you want and stick it in the mail. Forget it after that. I know you may think it's easy for me to say but I did it. Cross the road my friend and put it in someone else's hands.

Best of luck!

Dear Grasshopper,

No better time than the present. This will take reflecting and will most definitely sap me of tremendous amounts of energy but it is necessary.

Here goes...........................
