Thank you for setting this up, Starwolf!
Mobidoy, I'm very sorry to hear of your health problems! I hope you'll feel better soon, and I hope the armed forces do right by you.
Until you get your laptop, would it help you to sit on a really, really high chair, so that your hands and arms wouldn't be reaching up at all when you're on the computer? Maybe you could pile a lot of books and pillows on a regular chair, if you don't have a high one?
Thank you Corylea for your support (including the banner in your signature) and for the tricks... I will look at it but, i will still need support to my shoulders so i am not sure :) AS i have said in a PM to someone that was asking questions, i really have more pain lately but this time i know why and, i accept it. As i told him, if i have to suffer to be online with my brothers and sisters of this great family, i will accept it and set my mind elsewhere so i wont feel the pain that much.
I have started the Tech support again and firing up things and really, i am in such a good mental state that i don't care about the pain or the cold hands.... At this exact moment, i don't feel my ring finger and the pinky in the right hand, like they are not in my hand anymore. Can't use them at all, so i use the index to type. Really, it is not a big deal to me now.... I prefer being here typing with 1 finger than to be laying in bed watching tv and being away from you all....
I don't feel good at all in all this, Starwolf did not asked me if i wanted her to do this.... She decide she was doing it. Anyway, she would had send an army of garden Flamingo to attack and destroy my tank :P . I feel like begging lol. I admire the though tho and the support i get from everyone.
My sympathies Mobidoy, I hope you are able to live out as normal a life as possible despite this condition.
I also hope you get the chance to finish The Witcher! Have sent $40 to help you on your way. :peace:
Thank you very much, i will make good use of it and put you on the wall of honor. What are the standards that explain what is a normal life ? i mean, yeah i do have to change a lot of things, i have to forget everything that involves using strengh from my fingers, hands, arms, shoulder and neck, no more sports, no more driving around to look at the nature, most of the activities we were doing, mostly nautics, i can't do them anymore, i am not even allowed to run (impacts on the ground that resonnate in the shoulders) or to ride a bike as i have to put most of my upper body weight on my shoulders and hands. I cannot take my nephews in my arms neither.... Lot of things are to be forgotten but look at those people in wheel chairs, there are numerous things like that they cant do anymore and they live a normal life :)
This is how i take it all and i am good with it :)
When i get downs, there will always be someone here that will need a hand and make me see that i still can achieve things in life :)
