Disabilities: Visable and Invisable

The gay agenda - I forgot that one. Rosie and I won't talk about it, or even bring it up. But yet, somehow, someway, it comes up. Like grass in the springtime.

Rain,

I apologise for not responding sooner to you. I am so sorry.

I have TBI as well. My older brother dropped me on my head. I was a day old. It was an accident, pure and simple.

No, having tbi is hardwork. What is inside never comes out. I am more vocal online than in real time.

Hi Everyone,

I hope that everyone here is doing well. Please watch the heat. We are having a heat wave on the east coast, and my boxers are just sticking to my a**. It is just that hot outside. So please keep drinking your water!

Love,
Andrew

I too suffer from both visible and invisible disabilities. My visible disabilities stem from MS, 2 strokes, and RSD. I walk with a cane for short distances and use a motorized scooter in stores, plus I wear a patch over my right eye, My invisible disabilities include cognitive difficulties like short term memory loss and inability to handle complex matters on things like computers, cell phones, etc.; partial complex seizures; and severe depression, PTSD, and GAD. I don't drive due to all of this. I am extremely isolated. I am caretaker to my partner who is as ill as I am. He sleeps or is almost catatonic much of the time. I feel more like a nurse than a partner. I do my best but did not expect this. I feel inadequate to this job but do my best. Sigh. I would like someone to see me as a femme sometimes.
Namaste,
Lady_Wu

Hi Lady Wu,

Welcome! I am glad you are here with us and posting. Please keep coming back and posting.

We are all connected. I know what it is to feel alone, isolated, and feeling like crap. Always having to give all my energy to just make sense. I can't live my life out loud as some people do. It is a very strange feeling. And putting that into words even stranger.

My short and long term memory are both shot. When I had my heart attack it was like taking a tomato and just squeezing it with my hand. That is the only way I can describe it. It was pretty bad. The after affects caused even more damage.

I have seizures, and am diabetic as well. So, like you, I never thought I would have to choose weather to put food on my table or choose to get a prescription or go to a doctor. When you have your health, it is a blessing.

You are not invisible. No more than I am.

Namaste,
Andrew
