Kristie, Please don't give up, I can relate, my significant
other just got into a really bad car accident last Friday.
He is injured pretty bad, but he will be ok, just gonna take
time to heal, he has a couple of broken ribs and a broken
sternum. Anyway I have been running myself ragged the last
few days trying to take care of him. I already have a bad
case of ARD, adhesions related disease, and am in pain all
the time, I am suppose to take it easy, but he needs care.
Anyway the other day I just couldn't keep moving, but I had
to, I was forcing myself to keep going, the pain and stress
was so bad that I was gagging trying to hold back the nausea.
I know you thinking, 'what's the point', well the point is
that I have been in that place "I can't take it anymore, God
please take me!" I am fairly religious too and I wouldn't
commit the ultimate sin of suicide.
Last week I went to see my Dr. because I was starting to
get the headaches that had put me in the hospital last year,
I was scared, I didn't want to go there again. I told my Dr
that I was so tired of being in pain all the time, I pleaded
to her "if I was a horse they would have shot me a long
time ago to put me out of my misery, the fact that they
won't is discrimination" she found that kind of funny
and said she didn't think that the Supreme Courts would
support my argument. Then she looked at me seriously and
asked if I was going to be ok, not going to do anything
to hurt myself? I said "no, you know I am not like that,
I'll just pray harder that God will deliver me from this pain"
So I know what you mean when you say, "I want to give
up but I won't." Kristie, we just can't for whatever
our reasons we just can't. I have 3 children with the
significant other that I was telling you about and I
guess I have recently come to the realization that I
can't even ask God to take me, because I have always
thought that even if I wasn't here that the children
would still have there father, but with this close call
accident, I have to realize how easily he could be take
out too and then the children would have no one, so
it is not right for me to wish to die prematurely.
I guess this is just my point of view, I just want
to tell you to hang in there!
Take Care, Many Pain Free Hugs and Wishes
to you and yours,
Tammy Lynn

.....I am so anxious. So much is going on. I want to be medication free
but
I can't. I can't sleep with out something. And tonight the pain is so
bad I can't seem to get to relax. I took an "Aluna" which is a natural
pill.
I sure would never take my own life because I have seen first hand what
death does to a family unexpectedly. Besides I am very religious.
But man I hurt so bad. I just want IT to end.
Sorry for rambling..........I just am so tired. And hurting.
Kristie
