Hi Everyone

I haven't seen Nanner on here for a while ..

her last post was end of December where she was saying she still had bad head pain , and was beginning a new job in 2 weeks in January... Maybe she's just very busy ?? ..
If you see this Nanner or anyone else knows how she is, I'd love to know how she is doing now ?..

Hope everyone else is doing ok too ? OliverDove ??

Miss you too..and all my Friends off here ..

I am plodding along myself.. had a small setback caused by an overenthusiastic Physiotherapist on Wednesday, and ended up in bed for 2 days recovering !! Back on Painkillers which I was off till then !! GREAT!

Other than that I'm still getting along on my crutches, cathetering daily, wearing a horrible leg Brace which is a pain! Trying to be "Normal" but not succeeding very well..at least not Depressed anyway , which is a BONUS !!

HEY..I'm gonna be a Grandma in less than 4 weeks for the 1st time !!

So THAT'S going to be EXCITING Eh?!!

So Keep in Touch, let me know about Nanner if possible, and how you all are ? Love to hear from you ..

Love Belle NZ xxx

Hey Belle,

I haven't been feeling up to par for the last few weeks. My doctors up my pain meds a bit and I am adjusting. I just got notice on tuesday that I won my last round with the W/C Insurance Co. They now have to pay for my lost benefits. In about 4 months I have the final hearing and then the legal part will be for the most part done.

Sometimes you just feel like hitting those Physical Therapists when they hurt you. Maybe next time hit them in the knee cap with your cane. No, don't do that. Notice the double negative. You seem to be coming along. It really takes a great deal of time and energy to get any improvement.

As for me I just keep going. Hopefully all the hard work in physical therapy will pay off for both of us.

Oliver

Hi To Both of You !

It's lovely to see you remember me Mel.. and dear Oliver ..
well, I'm surprised my husband hasn't gone and ripped .... into them as it has take me 3 full days for me to just get out of the agony from what she made me do !..
I was crying in bed last night , it was so sore ,
It felt like I'd gone right back to when I was in the real bad times of pain meds..

I took lots of pills before bed and this morning I actually felt a bit better, not so much pain!

I vowed to him NO ONE is EVER going to make me do ANYTHING that doesn't seem right for my body ever again!! .. They JUST don't know .. do they ???

Anyway .. Oliver .. I'm sorry to see you are not feeling so good either .. but thank God for the pills when we need them ..

I hate them really , but they're a necessary evil too aren't they ?.

GREAT to see you've nearly got to the end of your Battle Oliver

.. That is SO Good for you to have stuck in there for SO LONG!!
CONRATULATIONS will be in order !! Let us All know when it's Finished , won't you?..
We really are SURVIVORS aren't we !!

And Mel, the baby

won't be far away !!
I'll let you know what it is !.. Makes the bad times seem to disappear when somthing nice to look forward to .

Well, Thank You both for your Encouragement ..
Love to you both

Belle NZ
