First I have to say I am sorry I guess. You do not realize or understand how down an uncaring you can get when you are in pain and coping. I have just been so selfish for lack of a better word, that mail, email, nothing has excited me for past 6 weeks in my trying to cope with and deal with the reality of the physical trouble I have, no thanks to the do nothing medical service that previous genertaion Vets have to and have had to deal with. In the short term until we get a truly seeing and caring batch of congressmen back in our country's service will the situation be rectified and adequately funded. So until then I will try to deal with MY problems, accept them and live with the vicious pain - depression cycle.
Next of all, we in this group let alone even in our own 'offline' lives do not know the friends we have that can 'help' in times of need, i.e. cry on their shoulder when you need support of some sort. Thank you so much for the MANY in here for that. I personally can attest that after several years have acquired the trust and close friendship of several and do not still fully realize that friendship, adoration and trust. THANK YA'LL!
I have checked the group a couple times, but was not compelled due to other distractions to try and post, the last time being the first of the month. I am so sorry to miss welcoming new members, wishing the best to those having special days, being supportive of those who have needs and trials too, and just being amongst real, understanding and fun people!
As the fall and winter season is again upon us and our great group picks up in activity I will also try to pop in as well. In spite of dealing with my own personal discomforts I am working daily. After a LONG, DRY summer for work, we are busier than three bee hives!! I will post in another thread about trips!
So with that I will run for this post, as I am getting ready to go to work, as usaul for the weekend. I have not enjoyed that this year but it has been easy per se but just what I have had to put up with, and not all DT either!
Miss all ya'll LOTS!! Big (((((hugs!))))))
