Hello Everyone

[Sammantha]

I started working as a medical assistant of all things! The job is most perfect and is right around the corner... I have Friday's off, but work long hours...... I am getting so drained, i cry everyday i come home then realize to stop otherwise my sinuses will get clogged and i will get sick.... This job could not be more perfect, if only i was healthy..... My GP sent my pulmonary tests to Duke ALS but i said i did not want to go back there. Friday i will be going to yet another new neuro. I really wished she would have referred me to a pulmonologist instead. I did not do the rehab as i would have had to miss work, and i do NOT want my new employer to find out that i am ill. So far i have put on a brave face but do not know how long i can keep it up....... I have to, i have to, i have to,,,, because of no diagnosis my disability wont cover me STILL and i just recently got the pulmonary diagnosis or restricted lung disorder. How ironic i am working for a doctor now! I really take pity on the nurses and secretaries out there. I had no idea! Sorry for the boo hooing but this is the only place i get to do it! Much love, Sammantha

hey Sammantha,
Congrats on the new job, just make sure you take it easy when you can!

And by the way, at my house it is now midnight, you should try to get some sleep-tomorrow is only thursday, one more day before you're off for the weekend! Wow, what am I doing up this late?

Oh gosh, don't I sound like an old mother hen now?, oh, yes, but I am OLD!:lol::lol::grin::lol:

take good care,
brenda

I think I might be a little older but will not dare ask any one their age. As most of my 15 grandchildren tell me,
gramps you are older than dirt. :lol:
From a Grandpa point of view, take care of yourself and congratualtions on the job. Sounds like a blessing.

Hey, Sam ... it sounds like a great job, but PLEASE put your health first. Take it easy when you get home, and just get as much rest as possible. You're still in the recovery phase from your surgery.

PS ... I'm older than all of you, including dirt !

Sam,

Please don't burn yourself out! Is it your long term disabilty from your job or SSD that will not go through?

April-
I love that advice, "looking" busy! lol
I left work today at 130pm after only 5.5 hrs, just too tired, or something. We have our office Christmas party tomorrow, and I'm thinking I'll just go in late, then pick up kids and travel about 2 hrs to my graduation destination!
I'm looking forward to my margarita celebration tomorrow night!
take care,
brenda
