Off Subject..but asking for help? Please?

[Guest guest]

Greetings...

I used to " Be " on this site regularly..but i stopped.

I stopped, because I had made a couple of friends...we used to exchange

letters..send things in the mail...but, somehow,(how, I can't seem to remember)

I " screwed things up, I guess.

What hurts, because I am a writer, (even been published,with the

Honor of Page One!) is I have never been able to " Separate my Feelings " from

every day life....and, tho I realize that these precious people have great pain

to deal with, on a daily basis...so do I.

That is why I am writing today.It hurt, to see the candle of

friendship burn out, because once I " Love " people, I can never stop.

I am writing to ask for help, and advice: I had a minor operation on

my hand, which has turned serious.I had " Trigger Finger " on two of my

fingers.They were closed TIGHT! Now, here it is ,almost a complete week from

this operation, and my finger is swollen beyond belief,AND the REST of my hand,

along with it! I've been sleeping with my hand on a pillow, to keep it raised

high...and, despite the operation, I STILL can't move my finger much. It even

feels WORSE,because now, it seems to be " frozen' into a curl, which is quite

painful to TRY to straighten it out,and the V.A.Doctor ,who seems to be

" unreachable " ,told me I would see almost immediate relief!Yeah, right!

I can't even stand ice on it.

My name is Ken. My " nickname " is " squarehead. Does anybody have any

suggestions? Will you share them with me? The V.A. is so buisy here, I can't

even REACH the Dr., to ask him anything...and I am in great pain.

Thank you, all, for your time. And if the people whom I knew as

" friends " should read this....please know I am sorry for whatever I did, and

still love you.

Thank you. ken
