Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 Hi Micha, Wow, you sure are sun sensitive. I’m sorry you have been sick. I didn’t know it got to 90 degrees where you live. Good grief, your thumb must really hurt by now. The motor scooter doesn’t sound like a bad idea to me. From: micha Sent: Friday, August 13, 2004 9:36 PM To: LUPIES Subject: tried sun-block/ appointment sle rheumy/ broke thumb between spanners wheel-chair i used a sun-block, about three weeks ago. i sat in the sun for 1 1/2 hour. at first, i hoped it would been a cold. but then my body seems to burn from the inside. it's just if the sun is caught in my body. my glands are pretty swollen, feverish, visual the weather was horrible last week, 90 degrees outside. this apartment-building has a flat roof and the heat stays indoors, even now after thunder-storms. this doesn't help much with feeling not too well. four weeks ago, i broke my thumb between the spanners of the borrowed wheel-chair, from a home-service in equipment. it's a wheel-chair meant to use it yourself with the big wheels. through the brain-fog it took me ten days to connect that my thumb hurt because my thumb got between these spanners. also i didn't give it much thoughts. i thought just such a pain. it was that i just couldn't bend the below part of my thumb. anyways, the occupational therapist advised me to go after the mobile scooter. i stopped this, for i wasn't ready then in February. also i was advised to ask for a wheel-chair, yet one in which i can be pushed, for example when i visit a museum or go to beach. this is the last thing i want, to be pushed. i want to maintain my independence as much as possible. the local governmental organization, who approves such requests will not approve a mobile scooter and a wheel-chair at the same time. the person i need to speak to, is on vacation. when she returns, i will for a mobile scooter. love to all, micha.
