It was a blessing in disguise it turned out that my meals on wheels lady also works at Companion and Homemakers,part time i have to use them for rides to my doctors because I cannot take the senior bus it has steps very hard for me to go up and down the step,as they say I have to take one STEP at a time.Yes the nurses at nursing homes could care less,when I was in mine this one elderly man keep yelling and crying for help and the nurses would just avoid him the poor man was blind for gods sake they have no compassion.so if i ever need help I am sticking with companions and homemakers,no nursing home for me no way.You couldnt pay me to go into one

I remember when I was sick once, I had to take to my bed. I was sick for a while and it felt like I was under house arrest, I hated it. Even though I don't go out so much, I don't like to have my freedom taken away.

It is highly possible with any couple when going through getting married to have some niggles. You will both be stressed with all the plans and because you are close you will take it out on each other.

At least you know that so you can give each other support instead. I hope you're enjoying the preparations, it's all part of it!

We've been arguing a lot less the past few days and mostly enjoying our time together
I came home from work today with mud and paw prints and grass stains all over me and my fiance was like "You smell like you were living in a cave with a thousand dogs for a month" lol.
At work today I was evaluating a Rottweiler who was in custody because she had killed another dog. I wasn't scared at all. There is no dog in the world that scares me! I love my job and I love all dogs. I had a long day at work though so I came home and walked my dogs and took a hot shower, and now I'm curled up in bed with my fiance and my dogs watching TV and I have my heating pad for my pain issues and drinking a glass of wine. Life is good lol.
My fiance and I are fostering two Dobermans named Bartek and Bella, who I think we're going to end up keeping. We're moving into a bigger house in the suburbs soon so we can foster and rescue more dogs. Needless to say, I'm not nervous at all walking around at night with two Dobermans, a Pit Bull, and a German Shepherd! Lol.

That's awful, I'm sorry you went through that
Sometimes I have really bad episodes with my medical issues where I have to stay in bed for long periods of time or I end up in the hospital or in a wheelchair. I hate it because I have to take medical leave from work and I can't go anywhere and I get behind on my schoolwork. My fear is that I'll end up permanently in a wheelchair and I won't be able to work with animals or play sports anymore. I try to get a lot of exercise and eat healthy and make sure I always take my medicine, and don't overwork myself or overexercise so that's less likely to happen.
I guess the only upside to being in a wheelchair would be that I could have a service dog and I could still play the drums as long as I can still use my hands. I'm thinking about getting a medical service dog anyway or maybe having my Shepherd puppy trained as one.

Believe me I know how you feel.I absolutely hate it having to depend on someone but what else can I do? I miss my late husband he was always there for me even when he was so sick he could hardly move.

It is worse now if I am sick as there is no-one to care for me. I have to do it myself. If I was terribly sick and couldn't care for my pets then I have someone 10 miles away who would help. Otherwise, if I just have flu or something (God forbid) then I have to care for myself.

You Hubby was good to care for you even when he wasn't well. I understand how you must miss him. Sending you hugs Carol, my friend.

Awww, I'm sorry that you have to stay in bed sometimes. I hope you don't end up in a wheelchair because that would be horrible. Sometimes when I give my thanks, I thank God for all my limbs and digits.

Although I could never have a service dog, my dogs do give service. They give me lots of love and cuddles which keeps me going on a daily basis. They keep me in the life because without them I would be lost, sad and lonely.

 

[XmasCarol52]

I worry because i had a few doctors tell me that if I dont take care of my legs I could have them cut off,talk about being scared I dont know how I would survive without my legs,

Thank you, I really hope I don't end up in a wheelchair either. It would definitely be horrible. I'm a really active person so I would feel like my freedom was being taken away if I couldn't walk.

I'm so glad your dogs are there for you My dogs keep me going too. Dogs are so amazing.

That's such a terrifying thing to hear from a doctor! I hope your legs are okay and you never lose them.

I have diabetes and they weren't ver nice about it either matter of fact one of them called me a liar when I told him I do elevate my legs I cannot help it if the swelling won't go down i have very bad dry skin on my legs from around the shin area to just above my ankles sometimes it gets infected so I have to watch it,one time even a nurse yelled at me because I wasnt wearing any shoes just had socks on i kept telling her that i couldnt fit into any shoes because my feet were way to swollen.She didnt believe me either that is why i have no use for doctors,I don't need to be called a liar,needless to say they had no manners.You dont go and yell at a patient.If I were a doctor I wouldn't it does not help any when they do that especially when you have anxieties.
oh one more thing did anyone ever tell you that you are a nice person?Well you are.

It was such a lovely morning to wake up this morning. No different to other mornings either. My pup Carly marly came and poked his wet nose in my face at about 5.20 AM (AM!!!) I get a lovely cuddle as I wake up. Then my Loopy loo gets up and shakes herself before doing a bit of yoga and I know it's time to get up. Then this morning at dawn, I heard the birds singing! I thought to myself, my day was started by nature today, and what a beautiful start to the day it was too.

I thought I would, or should be, lonely. With just myself, no family or children but my dogs make me feel loved, valued and cherished. I recommend getting a pet if anyone feels lonely or depressed. They are wonderful medicine.

They should not be talking to you like that, or anyone for that matter. You aren't a child but you do suffer from anxieties so that is a horrible thing to say.

 

[XmasCarol52]

The doctor are so cruel.They wanted me to go to the wound clinic so they could rub cream on my legs and massage them i told them I cannot go because I have agoraphobia and yet they still told me I should go right after I just told them that,they screw you of your meds if you need them and now this crapI have totally had it with doctors, I dont need any clinic to put cream on my legs and massage them I can do that myself and i told them so the doctor was so mean he immediately called me a liar the minute he walked n the room i was about ready to cry and on top of that I almost let him and his nurse have it.they had me in tears the big dopes,

That's a horrible way for a doctor to treat a patient
I have a lot of issues with doctors too. I'm in and out of doctors' offices and hospitals a lot and I'm not a fan.

Aww, thank you Has anyone ever told you that you're a nice person too? You definitely are too

 

[XmasCarol52]

The doctors now a days just dont care all they seem to care about is getting there money,i cannot tell you how many times i have tried to get meds even after I just went to see them and they will not give them to me,case in point I went to see my primary doctor she forgot to give me some meds she would not fill them because she claimed I needed to see her that is bs i was just there only three weeks ago,when this incident happened,I guess they think we are loaded.I hope someday these doctors get treated as bad as we do.I am not a mean person but they make me more sick then they help matter of fact one of them fired me because I couldnt come in when they wanted me to i told them i would come in a month but no,it seems like you either do what they want or they can you.I am so sick of the attitude.That is nice to hear that I am a nice person,I try to be.My mother always told me if I am nice to someone they will be nice to me but I find that is not always true.

That's so messed up Doctors can be really awful!
I used to think that if I was nice to people they would be nice to me too, but I've found that it's unfortunately not the case I try to be nice to everyone though. If anything it puts a smile on my face to be kind.

 

[janemariesayed]

Some people are just bar stewards. They seem to revel in other peoples misery. God willing they will get their karma in one life or another and then they will know what it feels like.

They sure are,I agree being nice doesnt always work,sometimes I find if you are to nice people tend to walk all over you

Yeah, exactly. It's unfortunate that that's the case, but being nice only goes so far when there are so many awful people in the world

It makes me sick when i see how cruel people can be.I have been nice to people and they were mean to me.It isnt right.That is why sometimes I tend to stick to myself.
