Re: To Debra B.-- disability//Judy

Judy,

We will keep our fingers and toes crossed. Don't worry about what

anyone says about this judge you will have. You know on any given

day, anything can happen! I know that if I sit too long now, I

get " stiff " and look much older than I am walking. I cannot help it.

I may be 45 but I'll tell you what, I physically feel older (and am

older according to " real age " ...lol). I don't know when my hearing

will be.....I have started accumulating my own medical records, even

though my attorney will be ordering them because there is stuff from

way way back showing that I was likely COPD and possibly fm even

then. Lots of spasms. Anxiety. Depression. I'm a basket of

diagnoses......

Thanks Darlene,

It is good to hav the support from all of you. It is so scary because it is so

important to keep my fmily afloat. My husband feels he isn't doing his job by

being able to pay for everything. He makes good money but so was I and without

it we have been struggling to pay for things. We finally managed to pay off the

oil company. We haven't recieved any oil in months but we've been managing

without it. We've had to do some old fation things because of it. Oh well, what

doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

I feel that I am not doing my share of our marriage. I can't do (don't) any of

the housework unless someone brings me the clothes to fold then my arms get so

tired that I have to stop. My husband works hard. He is an electrician at an Oil

Refinery here in Tyler so his work is very demanding, long hours and very

dangerous. I pray for his safety everyday and night. They push them really hard

to get stuff done and it's scary to think of him being in that place. It is an

old refinery and they are trying to bring it up to automation.....it's just

scary. But anyways, I just never feel that I am doing my part anymore and that

is very depressing for me. I have worked since I was 15 years old and up until

last year was pulling my part.

Hi Debra,

That's a really tough thing to go through. A lot of us have been there - I

know I have.

I hope you feel better about it soon. It's something you have no control over

and that makes it worse I think. I really hate my not being able to work,

either at a job or at home.

I'm sorry you are feeling so badly about this.

Take care of yourself,

Marti
