One Of Our Own In Need...OCScottie

3/14/2022 8:42pm
I see you lurking and liking posts, OCScottie, just know we got you brother.
I hope I speak for everyone when I say we don't expect a "thank you" post. I know, at least for me, it's hard to accept grace when I need it.
We're helping because we know you'd do the same if things were reversed.

No problem, OC was one of the few back in the day that didn't spread my private email around and contact my work and literally try to destroy me. LOL

LMAO!!! I often wondered if anyone noticed that. Vital has been such a HUGE part of my life for so many years it has become a creature of habit, its all part of my daily "routine".

Thanks for the kind words.

Correct Jeff, I started my paypal account WAY back when you had to have a credit card with a 3 digit verification # on the back of it and mine didnt have one. So I used her card to register my account, then just used my bank account info to complete the account.

I must say I am totally blown away at the response this has received, so much so I even upgraded my wheels to a higher model. If it keeps going I may even shop for a whole new chair!

So thanks everyone, like I said earlier, I cant even put into word the appreciation I have for every single one of you, this has been a highlight and put a smile on my face for the first time in months.

The last few months have been some of the hardest times I have ever faced. There have been many times where I just wanted to give up. I have been in and out of the ER over half a dozen times, seen 3-4 new doctors, had two nervous breakdowns and been to two different pain management clinics all to no avail. There simply isn't an answer or solution to the pain I have to endure. I still have one last hail Mary where they want to try a spinal cord implant that administers medication directly into my spinal cord to help elevate this nerve pain. We will see how that goes.

In the meantime. thanks everyone from the bottom of my heart.

Damn man, I have been in such bad shape lately I don't even remember the last time I played! Every once in awhile I pick it up, but just cant concentrate enough to get into it. It use to take my mind off the pain, not so much anymore. Sad

Hey Scottie, I know yours is a way different situation but some "older" folks I know locally have had major pain issues from degenerating spine issues. They've gotten spinal stimulators put in that are basically like a TENS device for their spines. The ones that have it say it was life changing. Just wanted to drop a note on that in case it might could help and you may not have heard of it.

Headed over to drop a helping hand on Paypal. Hang in there man.
