Got to a doctor, finally.

Thanks to those that made that possible.
They're at a loss. They are sure it's one thing causing it all because everything wrong happened at the same time. But the legs not wanting to work, double vision, my right fingers still numb, add the lumps that are not there, got her scratching her head.
She took a lot of blood and sent it out for test.
All I can do is wait.


Add- I should add a thank you to my doc. She talked to me yesterday and told me to meet her at Banner hospital today.

Anyone know a good place to sell short horror stories?

Need to find a place that is a real publisher.
Many online aren't.
You guys have any leads?

Anyone else having issues with their tax refund?

I was told by the State that my refund was going to come in today. It didn't. Called and was told that they are backed up and have to wait another 2 weeks.

My jaw dropped. They gave me a due date. They could have at least sent me an e-to notifying me.

Anyone else? Or is it just my bad luck?

My PTSD, depression and anxiety are running ramped.

Trying to handle some big issues right now and my mental issues are not helping.
I need my brain to work, stop crying, and get my mojo going.
Got 1 month to make everything right. How can I with the triple threat running ramped?

So word is getting out.....

How is beyond my. I've only talked about me becoming an Atheist here in this forum.

But here comes people to help me in my " crisis of faith" (their words). I am fine, I have way more to worry about than my soul, as I posted yesterday. I don't even want to answer my door!
Any advice?

I feel for the immigrants, they are a mirror to me.

Buses are coming into Tucson. And I see myself.
Many of the older members remember my struggles not to long ago. Tucson was a foreign place to this small town refuse. Nothing but a suitcase, pack and a will to keep going.
I was lucky, I knew English and had DU as my Cheer Squad. Many of these folks don't have that. But we have the same drive to find a place to feel safe, that has justice, to truly live. I had nothing, they have nothing, we're all chasing the same dream.
Big difference between us is many are coming with families. Their children taken away, put in cages. I slept in some bad places, but never a cage.
My heart breaks so much. They are running from Hades and ended up in Purgatory.
It hurts more when I think of what is written on the Statue of Liberty, “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
