Wow that is alot of stuff going on at once. I am glad things have been working out for the better for you and your mom and friend. That is a lot to deal with. Is your mom able to use her hand at all? It gets scary when things happen to your hands.
It seems everything happens all at once.
I am trying to get disability but in the US they treat you like you are someone who is lazy not someone who needs help. All the doctors have told them I am disabled and cannot work and my own surgeon wrote them a letter stating he does not want me to work because of the risk of more damage. Yet they still make no decision. It has been over 6 months with so many more before they decide. If they deny it as they usually do to most people who apply the first time it will be up to another 6 to 9 months to get and appeal and another decision. My mom is being proactive though and has a lawyer lined up in case that happens.
When I got hurt my wife was 5 months pregnant with our daughter. We never thought we were going to be able to have children. We went from being so excited because we both had good jobs and were healthy and wanted a child so much to being very scared for the future.
My daughter is 14 months old now and so awesome. When I fell down last night in the kitchen she brought over her blanket and put in on my head and lay down next to me. It was heartbreakingly sweet.
I won't give up I don't know how even though my body cries out for relief.
My wife, daughter, family and friends remind me everyday how much I would lose if I gave up.
The kindness of people I don't know has been wonderful as well. I could not carry to my car things I had to buy a couple weeks ago and the parking lot was filled with snow so I could not push the cart to my car. Mind you I usually don't shop but my wife was gone to relatives and I needed food and new ice packs for my back.
This couple helped me get everything to the car. I was just so surprised.
Thank you for sharing your own story it helps me keep moving forward.
Thank you very much as well for the tips. I appreciate it more than I can articulate.
I usually get them for helping others out that was why I have them in my sig.
I also mine MemoryCoin because it gives 1% of all mining to charities. It really struck home when I saw the coin how helpful it can be to those in need and being in need myself it still lets me give as well now that I cannot afford to give directly anymore.
Thank you again and my best wishes for you and your family.
I feel very sorry for you.
We have a family friend that broke her back and has had similar issues with neurological problems and nerve problems.
My Mum also has neuralgia in her Jaw and about 1 year ago now my sister's dog pulled her down on a rocky slope at my sister's house and she has severe nerve damage in her hand as well.
My Mum has not been able to work and my Step Dad just passed away during the end of December so it's been a really rough time for me as well.
I lost my job as a Network Administrator for a friend who owns Multiple Data Centers / Co-Located Servers and DDoS Mitigation Services so it's a significant amount of money that I'm not making each month.
I thought everything was going badly in December but then everything good and positive and improving happened.
Our very good family friend received her Disability Status with the Canadian Government and got her first cheque from the Canadian Government.
Our other family friend who broke her back and has severe nerve damage sold her trailer and had enough to move elsewhere where she found a well paying job.
Throughout the weeks after my Step Dad passed away everyone helped us out financially and gave us as much love and support as possible.
Then within the last 2 weeks I have been able to trade my 4.4 Bitcoins into over 15 Bitcoins and it changed from being the person desperate for money to being the person having more then enough and being able to share with all my friends and family and people that need it.
I guess the moral of what I'm trying to say is that you should never give up.
Things will get better and There will be brighter days.
PS: I'll be filling your tip jars right away
Yes my Mum has use of her hand but she has severe nerve damage in it.
She's been going to physiotherapy that isn't covered by Canadian Government Issued Medical but because she really needs to do it to improve mobility , strength and movement I usually pay for alot of the extra times she can go.
I myself am Bipolar and have Anxiety Disorder and when I was around 17 years old I had my first and only manic episode. I literally lost my mind and remember none of it. According to what I was told that I did. I hacked an ATM and managed to get a balance on my ATM card of $38,880 which I have no idea how. I also was in the hospital for 30 days in solitary confinement and ran out of the Hospital in anger , rage and trying to escape what I considered torture. Being handed handfuls of drugs in the attempt to "correct" whatever was "wrong" with me.
I'm happy to say I'm 26 now and have had no issues at all anymore. I'm the healthiest I've ever been in my life even healthier then when I played Rugby and Soccer in High School as the Captain of both teams.
I can honestly say I've lost my mind and regained it again in full.
I've gone from being completely mentally and physically sick (Medically Diagnosed) to being physically healthy (Medically Diagnosed).
Hang in there man it'll get ALOT better.
Tips will be sent as soon as my wallets sync
