Savingdogs-Saving the chickens

I think that is why you all help me so much. Here, where I can communicate and understand, I can be a normal communicator and a part of the group in the same way I used to be the part of groups of people when I could hear, use the phone and have normal conversations in groups. I cannot tell you all what a lifeline it has been for me to have you to communicate with especially when you are all so interested in what I am, and in my lifestyle. Since I can no longer drive I cannot just pick up and go visit a friend or call someone to chat.......

But you all fill in nicely for that. There is always at least one of you out there, listening. I just wish sometimes I could hug you all.

Thanks, , SD for you being here, too. There are so many good folks here, it's almost like a great family in itself. No matter what we're all going through, someone here has "been there, done that" and is usually willing to try to help.

But it feels like I'm getting paid to feel awful and not hear, so as much as I'm celebrating, it is a defeat too. I would never have chosen disability as the way to retire, it runs counter to my nature. I'm more of a worker bee and a talker and love to be in the center of a group of people....or did.

I understand that statement well.

When I got a note from the doctor for a handicap tag on my car I felt quite a bit of relief ... at first. Then I read the part he had signed about this being a PERMANENT disability tag. I just sat down and cried and cried. Sitting around is not my cup of tea either.

I am glad you are in the center of my group these days.
