My husbadn was injured in the line of duty 14 yrs ago and has been a chronic pain patient every since. They have to change his pain meds every so often because he has been on everything from meth-opana(his newest is opana) and his body gets use to the meds and it doesn't help the pain.

He had a broken neck 2 places and destroyed his shoulder he had about 10 surgeries and was told he would never walk again-it took 3 yrs but he is walking again ( always in pain but walking)

He has good days -very few and of course really bad days- which is alot.

The meds have taken a toll on him and he is loosing his teeth and we have to have his organs checked every 3 months. He was also told he wouldn't see 50-he just turned 49 July 19. So as you can see it is stressful but we get through it.

I had breast cancer in Sept 05 and beat it- just recently I was diagnosed with it again. The problem is I have no insurance  or the cash to pay for the surgery I need. So for now I just go on daily-keep smiling so people don't know how stressed I am. I feel things are getting worst because I seem to be having more pain lately.

All I ask is for prayer-I have 2 grandbabies  and family that I would like to spend time with.

I also have a husband who is a chronic pain patient(14 yrs) I posted under chronic pain.

So as you can see I am stressed to the max.

Karin,

 We have talked to his Drs. about the pump but since he has so much metal in him and with all the meds he is on and Now diagnosed with severe degenerated disk disease in entire back there really isn't much more they can do per the drs.

We just live one day at a time and NO they are not taking care of us(he was a police officer).

We live on his retirement/disability mainly and I work part time. I am also dealing with breast cancer and No surgery because I have no insurance. No one will do it unless I come up with 800.00  as down payment on a 13000.00 bill which I don't have so I just continue to deal with it.

Sometimes I get really depressed about this junk and I cry.

I wonder why is it the little man has to suffer just because they aren't RICH.

 

You can email me directly @ rc1980@comcast.net if you want to.

 

Take care and Hopefully your new pump is working better.

We don't know all the issues involved so I was suprised you said honor mother & father. I had similar problems with my inlaws as a matter of fact on our wedding day my father in law told me he would give it a yr.(been 27 yrs now)  When the bible states HONOR your MOTHER & FATher  it doesn't mean when they are being nasty to you to take their side. Families have issues. One point in our life We wouldn't let my inlaws see the kids because they did nothing but talk bad about us to everyone. So sometimes you just can't HONOR THEM at the moment. Families have to work the issues out. Life isn't perfect. As long as there are families there will be issues.
