A different day of different pain

Hello again

Today is a one handed typing.

As I mentioned I went and volunteered at a community dinner yesterday. This morning I woke up with different pain, in different areas. My right hip was so very sore. And I could barely use my right arm. as my right shoulder is killing me. I can't pick up my tea mug with my right arm.

Church this morning. I left, walked down the street towards the church. The church is three blocks away. I got to the first set of lights and my right leg, right hip and my right shoulder, were and are, so sore, I could barely walk, the pain was so great. I stood there, for a moment. I couldn't go any further, I was in to much pain. I just turned around and walked home, very slowly at that. That was that. Getting home was very painful. I feel so bad that I missed church this morning, but I was and am to much pain.

This is new pain. I knew, or had a feeling, that there was and is something wrong with my right shoulder. Turns out there is. And this pain in my right hip is new. OK I had a problem with my right hip years ago.. But I was starting to walk without my cane. I went to all my job interviews without my cane. I worked those three days, at a job I lost after three days, without my cane. Everything was OK. No major pain. Not until this new accident is when I needed to use my cane all the time again. So now I have a hip problem as well. Again this is new and is directly related to the bus accident.


So my day was just lying on my back. I couldn't turn over on my right side, but my left side was OK.

Some friends, yes friends. I did say I have three friends. They were going to come over for dinner. I was going to make stuffed cannelloni. I do have, thanks to the food bank, most of what is needed to make this. They were going to buy the rest. But I called them and said that I couldn't do it. To much pain. I just would not be able to cook the dinner. Another time I said to them. It is true I wouldn't be able to make dinner.

I also didn't want to clean either. Or I couldn't do any cleaning. Not much to do, but enough that it would hurt to much. And they would not be able to make the cannelloni the way I would. They can cook but not as good as I can and it wouldn't work. I would want to step in and do it myself. The way I am in the kitchen. That you Mom for teaching me how to cook. Mom also taught me how to make bread from scratch.

Some one I know from the hospital where mom was, said to me I should start a company that specializes in cooking for seniors in homes. Binging them one or two meals a day. His father was in the same home as mom was in. This guy told me that everyone was impressed at what I brought mom each day. I didn't know this. I just cooked mom home made healthy, fresh as possible, meals each day.

Now I need to make something to eat for myself. I don't even want to eat, but need to. I haven't eaten anything today. My diabetes needs me to feed myself three times a day.

Not bad for typing one handed. Very slow, but OK.

GOD bless and good night.

Please pray that I receive a financial miracle so I can pay my landlord what I owe him, so as I don't screw him over for rent, before I move. He has been very good to me, very understanding.  I don't want to move without having paid him in full. This is my biggest problem. Besides the fact it is mom's one year anniversary of her passing, coming up at the end of this month. And I wanted to give her a memorial service. Please pray that I am able to do this as well.

Thank you and may GOD bless you and your entire family.
