Hi everyone!
I've missed you all! I've been in Rochester, NY because my Husband had a job interview in Syracuse, We still have not heard back from Allen's interview. I am growing more and more anxious as the days pass by. I am getting the feeling they don't want him as they just seem to not care that we are waiting for an answer. His interview was on Tuesday and today is Saturday. I am feeling well physically but NOT mentally. I feel so defeated and hopeless. My insurance co. from work is on my a** about paying me. They don't believe my surgery and illness qualify to add up to payments from them. They want me to fill out Social Security Disability forms. I tried to do that but Allen makes way too much
money for us to qualify and I won't be disabled for the rest of my life. My doctor won't fill out the paper work either and I don't blame him. It's a nightmare that I don't need to deal with right now. The insurance co. said they will not pay me unless I fill out SSD paperwork. If Allen gets this job, I won't have to use them and I won't need them to pay me anymore. I just want to know if Allen got the job or not, then I will know more about where I need to turn. If he does not get the job, I obiosuly will need the money.
I'm still cathing every 3-4 hours. It's so nice NOT to be aware of the new bladder. I can't feel anything down there!! I love it so much! I'm so darn excited. I want to get out and have a life. We stopped one time on the way home to NY, usually we would have stopped 10 times. The only time I am aware that I have a bladder is when it gets too full. It pushes against my other organs down there and causes discomfort but it's no big deal because it goes away as soon as I cath. When we arrived home I had some wine with no problem. I can go out and drink now! I can drink anything I want to and I can eat anything I want to. The scar is healing up nicely.
My mind is so scattered right now with everything that is going on but I am happy to say that my new bladder is my new best friend!!!!! I NEVER thought I would say that!
I'm here for you all if you need help and or have questions and concerns!
My heart, mind, and spirit are with you all!
Love,
