Tony Lalikos picked me up and brought me back from Church at (St. George Greek Orthodox Church). I did not attend St .Stephen's Orthodox Catholic Church out on Sumner Ave, I was exhausted. The doctors and nurses said to rest, so I will keep trying. I am so very weak these days. I heard that Joan's Katherin and Jeremie went, so that is so good..

I used them up most of the food stamps. I have cans of stuff I really do not know how to cook or I really do not like to eat much. I might check on a food pantry this week.

PLEASE pray that God provide for me the income so I can get well and do the work He wants me to do. PRAY I am healed in mind, sprit, soul, body and be as HE wills!

Sunday, October 18th and the Western Massachusetts Arthritis Foundation Walk. BUT YOU CAN STILL DONATE. I was/am Captain of a team called the "3 linkers" (click on the name "three linkers" to see a card that can be printed to show the website address) and hope people reading this will come to the website at http://wmaw.kintera.org/ioof and join our team or donate to the cause and preferably both. More information is at this link, click on the image (or this link) to see and print it. If they want to they can send donations to me and I will put them on the website, all I ask is tell me if you want this to be made as a donation in the name of someone or some organization. Arthritis does not just cripple old folks, it hits hard also the young, like the 2 year old. Let's all get behind this and put Arthritis out of business in this country as we did Polio.

Donate or Join the team today, help us reach our goal. We would like to raise over 500 dollars, but set our goal at $200 because not that many folks have joined us yet. Be a help to your community, join or give to the Arathritis Foundation through our team, the "3 linkers", it is NOT o late to donate.

One last note. I have had "electric shocks" go through my body, and a tingling like you get when a portin of your body has "gone to sleep", which for me is almost all the time.

I am scared. Please pray for me. Nerves like electric shocks. I am afraid that these things will be with me the rest of my natural life.

Monday I found out I had to get things for the Dr. and so I did it monday afternoon and Tuesday. They told me Thursday we could have the teeth out Friday. I am expecting a room to stay overnight as the last time I had this done a nurse said "you know we had to bring you back twice last night", so I did not want to take any chances.

Went to class Monday and Wednesday and to the doctors and therapists and orthotics people by Thusday night. So tired and next door had to have one of her Thursday night parties. I slept for a bit with my brace on in the laundry room, it was quieter. Got some sleep from 4pm unt until 8pm, on and off.

What a mix up at the hospital. To tired to tell yo about it now, will next week. I might have to stay for the overnight bill. I will try and talk with Ann Humphries then.

I have made a tri-fold resume like a brochure, saved it as a PDF file,and gave it to the Food Stamp people in case they know of a job when I am able to work . I had many appointments and the people at MART for Pioneer Valley, paid for my MassHealth, have been wonderful at taking me to medical appointments and then getting me to bring me back to my apartment building. But I feel so guilty for taking this help at the expense of my family and friends taxes. I could have done all this with a bus card.

 

Thank you for your prayers. I have placed an image here that tells of my teeth to be taken out this week

The neuro surgeon still wants to do surgery on my neck and take ot the intervertebral items and put something else in and fuse/screw these vertebrae in my neck, and there is a chance that if they do this, I will loose my ability to swallow. I have put in some drawings to show how the things should work, my brace was wrong so mine sticks out some.
