hi everyone. I went back to the speaker meeting and took a new comer chip. ive never taken chips before but i felt if everyone does it then im not specail so i did it to. maybe i needed to start at the beg. who knows i must not of learned something so god is having me re-do it?
im trying to see the positive in this but its hard. ill be going back into the hospital after school tommorrow and im really scared. and my husband wants to be a dick. so i wasent able to tell him about it. why do they pick the worst time to get on there periods? see you guys mon-tues

Congratulations! Good going! You're in my prayers always, whichru. You're gonna be okay! God didn't let you come this far to lose you now. Hugs for you!

I have a similar disease to your lupus and I've had surgery and had to take drugs. You can do it. You just have to want to. And don't forget to ask for injections of Toridol for pain. It's absolutely great pain control. I had an incision from my breastbone to my pelvic bone, so I was afraid to try it for fear I'd have too much pain but it worked way better than the narcotics. The pills don't work, but the injections are wonderful. I'm always here for you, girl.

Good for you Witchru I am so proud of you. I know it took alot to do that but maybe getting the chip will give you hope, and strength in your times of need. I remember when I took my desire chip someone told me if I could put it under my tongue and it melted they would buy me a drink. LOL It never melted but it did give me hope for the day that I could do it and it also helped with my inward committment towards my sobriety. You go girl and don't worry with your hubby you just take care of you right now. hugs cherrie

I am so glad you've done this, whichru. It's a sign of having gained some humility (not the same as humiliation, btw); a very healthy step for you. Congratulations.

congrats whichru...you are in my thoughts and prayers. Today is a new day, and remember when the day is going bad, nothing seems to be working, you can start it at any time you want to.
