Your Friend, Christina
Christina:
Thank you for asking about me. That was very sweet. I'm okay. It's the end of the year bull c##p paperwork, closing out sh## at work so I'm getting a little overwhelmed and a little overworked. The good news is, Tuesday is my last day of work until the 4th of January and then we're back with a vengeance. I have to go to San Francisco for business for a week when I come back in January but for now I am keeping my eye on the prize of VACATION, Yeah! I still need to finish shopping etc. How are you doing? We're you able to work out the pain medication that is suitable for you with your Dr? How long are you off of work? Are you able to get around or just rest? I hope you are getting better each day.
Love,
Rach

Rach, God its so nice to hear from u. I kind of miss u on here. I know that sounds stupid, but when u think about it, you were the very first person to help me in this long prosses called recovery. I will never forget u for that. Each time that i hear that your on here, it makes me smile. and when u write back to me it makes it even better. Anyway enough on the crying part of everthing.... Yes, i think that i finally worked out the pain issue with the Dr.'s. Although it wasnt what i or anyone would want. I had to go to the E.R. yesterday and they put me back on Vic's. I told them that i couldnt handle the Pecicets and that i didnt realy want the Vic's ...but what choice do i have in the matter right now. However, im not abusing them.!!!!! I have made DAM sure that its not gonna happen like that again. I kind of liked things better when i got that smile from my fiancee at the end of the night when we would read the log for the day and see how great i was doing everyday. He was realy proud of me. And that is what makes me happy in life. But now that this has happened, all that kind of changed alittle. I have to take one pill every 4-6 hours to keep the horrid pain out of my body.!!! I wish that i could say it was better, and its getting there, but not there yet. My guy has even left them here when he went to work and the erge to take more dosnt even hit me anymore. Thats good right???
This has gotten long, Ill let you get a word in before i go on. Lots of stuff to tell you though...........

Hey Rachel, I've been looking for you. How are you? I've looked everywhere for your email address and can't find it. Could you write me so I'd have it again? I've started to email you a couple of times but then when I'd see you online I would forget to ask, lol. Thanks! Take care, love, Kat
Hey Christina:
I hope you get to feeling better soon. Just take it one day at a time. Listen to your body.
Kat:
I don't have your E-mail address. You and Sharon had it from the other board that you had. I'm like you, I don't like putting it on the board so how do we get around that? Hmmm. How are things?
Love,
RAch

Rach, i know it will get better. And thank for the advise. Its just the "man made pain" at least thats what the surgen called it. He ment that all the pain is from them moving around the muscles and cleaning everything out the way that they did. IT WILL GET BETTER. i just have to wait.
I hope i hear for u again soon.
Your Friend, Christina
I hope i hear for u again soon.
Your Friend, Christina
Well man, this is a drag, lol. And I wanted to talk to you too. Are you on AOL by any chance? If you were I could Im you by your screen name. Or do we have any friends in common that might know both of ours? Sharon wanted your address too. I must have just had it on that other group cause I can't find it in my address book anywhere. Well, if we can't think of anything I'll just stick it on here for a few minutes then delete it. I'm doing pretty good, how about yourself? Only problem is it's so darn cold!! I envy all these lucky people on here who live where it's warm! lol Love, Kat
Kat, where do you live?? Is it cold were you are too??
Just looking for someone to talk to.

Hi Christina, I live in Alabama. It was 19 degrees here last night. Where do you live? Is it cold there too? Love, Kat
Okay, here it is: Kathamp1980@aol.com
Got it! I'm sending you an E-mail right now.
Rach
Rach
Ya, its cold here to. I live in Michigan and we got alittle bit of snow the past couple of days. I didnt think it would get that cold there. Funny, i always though that Mich. winters suck, but i guess that people have it bad everywhere.
Your Friend, Christina
Your Friend, Christina
Cool Rachel, I don't see anywhere to edit this, how do you do it? Kat
Guess it's to be expected Christina, being December and all, lol. How are you feeling these days? Are you getting better? I know you've had a hard time. Love, Kat
Kat:

Rach

You dont even want me to start on that.... It gets to be long posts whenever anyone askes me that question tonight. I had started talking to someone on another post, but i think i may have scared her away cause she has stopped writting. It sucks, just when i start to get all the feelings out, the stop wanting to talk to me. I know im problobly a drag to write to right now and everyone is tired, but my heart hurts right now. I know it will get better, it is just a bad week i guess. Im scared im gonna go on and have a bad month. AHHHhhhhh
Oh, well any way, have you gotten all the x-mas shopping done?? I still have alittle bit left to do. But because of the surgery, i cant go out and do anything. What a christmas.
Your Friend, Christina
P.S. I saw that you and Rach are talking...Am i interupting??? Its o.k. if you need to jump to something eles. Just let me know if your to busy right now to talk. Bed is calling my name soon. I just have to find someone to help me up the bacement stairs.(ha, ha, ha)

You're not being longwinded. If you need to talk, here is as good as a place as any to get your feelings out. We, as addicts, tend to numb ourselves so we don't have to feel a damn thing. So, talking about your feelings is a cathartic experience and definitely a step in the right direction of recovery, my dear. That's why when you are up to it I really think you should check out an AA/NA meeting it's a good place to get some direction and talk about those feelings and all the fear associated with what made us use in the first place.
Love,
RAchel

Rach, i dont know why or how come , but whenever you write my brain seems to listen.!!!! Isnt it funny how you can always make me feel better about myself?? Im not a stalker or anything, but you realy have been my little angel that sits here every now and then. Your right , if i need to write then ill write...
But i just was able to scream loud enough to wake up my fiancee and have him help me up the stairs out of the bacement(he put the computer down here so we could move the new dining room furniture in the dining room)
Im afraid that if i dont take the help now, ill get stuck down here all night. I cant go up the stairs by myself yet. My left leg dosnt seem to move up and down with out pulling at the stitches.(ooooouch) So he carries me up them.Im starting to call him my "HULK" He's not that big but his arms are HUGE and it is very helpful in my time of need. He tells me that working out helps him releave alot of stress...Maybe i should start doing that more when i can move??!!!!
Well, not ment to be , but that was another long one huh?? Sorry all(have no idea why i keep saying sorry)
Thanks again for the words that you all have given me tonight. And Rach...I know it will be alwhile before we talk again, just know im always looking for you and that your in my prayers and thoughts this x-mas.
