Sorry to hear it, Laura!

Thanks.

Went back to doc. He scoped my sinuses in his office and cut out some scar tissue that was already starting to form. He could be bothered to use any kind of anesthesia. Man, that hurt. I was sent home with some antibiotics, steroids and vicodin- The usual cocktail. I'm starting to feel more like myself.

I had to get my kids on that Medicaid Health plan, which is fine because at least they have coverage until I secure a job. But now that I'm "in the system" I have a "case number", which has brought me multiple mailings from the "Family Independence Agency", with applications for food stamps, housing, clothes, etc. It's humiliating and degrading. I want to write them back and tell them I dont need their damn food stamps and HUD housing. I have the skills and experience to run their damn program- hire me and I'll prove it! But in the eyes of the state of Michigan I am one of the indigent. I dont like that one bit.

My mantra these days is "It's all good".
Its all good Its all good Its all good Its all good Its all good.....

I wanted to call you and talk to see if it would help, I got your phone number from someone here, would that help any? I know how it feels to be down and out, hon, hang in there and I'll keep you in my prayers and thoughts. Brenda "I'll rock the darn boat all I want to, and if it's meant to stay afloat, then it will. If not, then we'll just all go down with the bloody ship!"
