concerned about you, Izzy
« on: February 16, 2010, 10:01:18 PM »
I think about you often, how you've been through more physical suffering than I can comprehend,
and intense long-term pain.

I am worried about you, Izz.

If you can, send us an update...

love to you,

Hops

Thanks Hops,

Me too  :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :x

I just had a back x-ray to see if my 40 year old Rods had been displaced in any way, but not by  Dr’s or my eyes! (One was taken the day of the accident , but I didn’t know, so there was a comparison on record.) Dr. is referring me to a Neurologist regarding the tremors, and tics and gnashing of teeth.  

In 10 days it will be 11 months. The pain is much less but dressing that leg requires twisting into a pretzel, in trying to prevent too much pain in my groin and back…shoulder blade area at tip of Rods there--and am exhausted afterward, too tired to go out!

The therapist is great and I keep improving , yet still have a  number of months more to go. I had 2½ months last summer with her, then no therapy until January to date., to heal from 3rd surgery..

The rep for the driver’s Insurance Company keeps cutting down my home care person’s time, so I am currently mapping out the necessities and they are spread over 3 Tuesdays in a row. No more fights from me to keep the time. If I need to, I will hire my own, as my lawyer recommended, and bill it back to the Insurance Co., so they pay one way or another. My way they will have to pay more! I do some things ,but nothing that aggravates the healing of painful areas, as recommended by my therapist.

If therapy is cut again, to have me exercise on my own, I will hire her privately and bill back to the Insurance Co. I will improve faster with her help plus 5/9 exercises are therapist-assisted anyway.

My sister is coming out from Ontario in April and she wants Reiki and Reflexology me! She has a new piece of ‘equipment‘, a MRS1000 mat (Mrs. Mat is it’s name) and she healed her husband’s painful knee and her painful tooth with it, and there is a ‘magic wand’ involved.)

I mind is constantly on the whens and hows of everything--when will I have my dead battery boosted. When will my car be on the road? When will I finally see my dentist after 1½ years away? and MUCH more, but I still offset those circular thoughts by immersing myself into far more traumatic things, such as still investigating others’ theories on 9/11 and am pleased to see more and more big wigs meeting and talking about charging Bush and Cheney with murder, plus I now have my own scenario, having read so many others and taking the best, most likely parts from different sources. The main media is owned and the truth will never 'out' there.

I dare to say that no planes hit any buildings, not 757s anyway-- and the big black eye is building 7 the really intended target, but Towers 1 and 2 were in the way and had to be taken out first, for a most dramatic ending of a ‘plane’/ drone roaring in to demolish #7, but it was shot down, the drone not Flight 93, and therefore the delayed plans and pulverizing #7 so late after the towers.

See how I take my mind off the issues? Before I know it 2011 will b hear and we’ll go to court over this “simple broken leg’ that ought to have healed last June, (from the rep’s actions! She must go by the book, but I am NOT in any book!)

Love………….. to all
Izzy

Ahh well, I feel better!

If you're healthy enough for....errr....rather remarkable fringe conspiracy theories (imvho :P), you're doing better than I'd realized.

I should never be left alone with my imagination.

It does sound exhausting but you're working with every one of your marbles and it sounds like progress, Izz!

thanks for the update, hon.

Izzy,
Do write your state's insurance commissioner and file a formal complaint against the driver's insurance. That usually gets their attention. The claims agent is often paid by what they can get away with. I had someone back into my vehicle in a parking lot once and the agent tried to refuse to pay the insurance on my rental car. When I mentioned the insurance commissioner he called right back.

Sending healing vibes your way!!

Thanks sealynx

I am in Canada and in the Province of British Columbia. We are all insured by the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC). After that we can buy more Insurance from private Insurance Company. *MY*  Insurer was, and will be again, ICBC.

I didn't renew my Insurance while not driving, but will when I can get the chair, and me, in and out of my car with no pain to my hip or back. I use hand-controls, and have for 40 years. I, in essence, am suing my Insurer, but the driver who hit me is paying through His policy. ICBC is $loaded$ and only 2% of the cases go to court. They don't want the publicity.

I have a good lawyer and my broken leg led to more complications than just a broken leg----so the private rep, hired by ICBC is supposed to keep expenses down, and if she is mean enough (and she is) she will exasperate me enough to say "I quit", but I won't. This left leg must be returned to the condition it was before I was struck, or I add loss to a pain and suffering, had to quit my job, have been 'isolated' for  _________, have the twitches and tics, lost the ball of my femur, 3 surgeries, ---yada yada. My lawyer won't settle for a $25,000.00 broken leg claim.

My left leg is just beginning to move again..... as the muscles strenghten, the pain lessens. ortho surgeon suggests I will always have some pain. 

I have kept a journal for my lawyer, but he comes here every 8 weeks for an update so he has chronlogical stuff to built my case for me. I think he would like to see THIS one IN court!

It's just that if I am cut from services, ICBC might expect I will stop trying, or because they know I am 70 in my 71st year, that I am frail, gray-haired and on death's door. AHA! but I am not!

Thanks for the healing vibes!

Hey Iz (you trooper you!)...

Reiki just might help... but don't tell your Drs or Lawyers!  :D

Lovely pic Izzy!!! A friend does Reiki. She once healed some toes that broke and then healed wrong. Over night my foot seemed to "settle down" and I could run again. Its all a bunch of atoms dancing around. They just need to dance in the right direction!

for your comments. My sister seems to be very successful with all her clients. (She is like a little old grandmother--well she IS a little old grandmother,  :D :lol: :P,.... 69, and 5'4", while I am 5'10") She said I must relax for Reiki---well my therapist is always at me to relax. We laugh about it, and a video we saw, called 'play dead baillie', has her now saying "Play Dead, Izzy"!


Cheers and Onward Ho!

Thank you Beth

I appreciate your comments.

The go-between with the driver's Insurance and me has the job of making my life miserable enough to give up, then no claim. She is coming on Monday and hope to not cut off my therapy, after 2 months. She did that last year after 2½ months and I just had therapy again beginning January.

I have to play my cards close to the vest and not let her know some of the basis of my claim, i.e. if the Insurance Co, and she, had believed my stating that my damaged wheelchair was stolen, I would have had a loaner sooner, and not had been infected by my 10 year-old rundown chair, and might have healed and not lost a body part to the garbage pail.

Instead, I might just say that she must be a sadist to hold down a job that allows her to torture old women! So, sure let the therapist go, but I need one and will hire my own, that the Insurance Co. will pay one way or another.  (Then I will hire Karla privately, as she is good and makes me laugh!)

Love
Izzy

They certainly don't know our Izz: )

Glad to see you're hanging in there, my friend.

You look so cozy in that nice ivory sweater.

Mo2, my friend

Welcome Welcome back! Surprise. I trust all is well with you?

You've been on my mind, and that I why I never left the group, as I am so far away from Ns now, just so not bothered by them, and only dealing with my Mar 27.09 injury that is dragging and dragging!

Love
Izzy

PS. I love that sweater and have one in blue as well. I bought them about 25 years ago---------imagine!! Ever have favourites like that?

Hi Izzy:

I check in now and again, to see how everyone's doing.

Wish I could say I'm as unbothered by N's...... but I can't, unfortunately.

About your sweater...... most of my favorite regular wear clothes are 10 to 15 years old and I wish I could buy more just like them: )

Keep healing, and moving towards getting health and legal issues under control, if not behind you.
