Behind...I know...FEELING GREAT though!

Ok...so it has been a few weeks, but I am all about an update.  Well, last week, I was admitted to the hospital for 7 days of rehab and steroid infusion.  It went very well, and praise God, I am on the up and up.  I am continuing PT as an outpatient.  I feel very good.  I have not felt this good in a long time!  I am able to walk short distances with my walker.  I am driving again!!!  It is so nice to have a bit of independance back!

I am going to continue fighting and working to improve my abilities.  PRAISE GOD!

Frustrated with all the twists & Turns!!!

I am unbelievably FRUSTRATED with the ropes I need to jump through just to get what I need!  I am praying that God will get me through this.  I know he will, but it is really becoming a BIG CHALLENGE!!

So I found out today that even though my insurance said they would cover my wheelchair through the Agnesian Healthshoppe....now I am being told that only 80% of it is covered because Agnesian Health Shoppe is an out-of-network provider even though initially, they were told that they are.

GGRRRRRRRRRR!

I just want to get around.  Why does everything have to be so difficult and then even more difficult on top of that?????????

Turning Point

Well, some turning points have come with my MS.  I am to a point of acceptance to have more of a sense of independance!  Today, I was evaluated for my ultra-light weight wheelchair.  The women who are helping me from St. Agnes were/are very helpful and thorough.  Here is the absolute best part for anyone who knows me well...it  will be an ORANGE chair! 

All is really helpful in my emotions stablizing.

A joyous Good Friday to all!  Christ died for our debt of sin.  Praise be to God for his undeserved love for us!

We have a busy weekend ahead, but it is always nice to spend quality time with family.

Looking ahead, Monday, I will be evaluated/fitted for a wheelchair.  This will just make my life so much easier.  Yes, all...It will be ORANGE!   Yeah!

I received my informational packet from the NMSS so I can go ahead and get started on the process to be able to receive SSDI. 

A somber Maundy Thursday

First off, I only say 'somber' as I am reflecting on what my LORD and Savior was about to face.

Well, today was a pretty good day.  Hard as to get out of bed lately, but I am not giving up the fight, just coming to terms with reality.

I had a physical therapy appt. today.  Due to insurance, I only have  appts. left that they will cover.  Gina, my PT, is going to work with me and my wheelchair when I get it.
