Just resting. A vent for psychiatrists that don't listen. I know Chiari is in our heads, but its not a mental disorder, it is a physical problem for which there is a treatment but no known cure. Thats why the pharmacuetical companies want nothing to do with us! Dang Earl!

Our pain isn't their pain, and it just doesn't "go away" I wish it did.

I feel blessed today.

Back to AZ, weather is kinda warm. Heck, its HOT!
Oh well, I am enjoying it. I am so glad I still have my flying benefits. I stayed with Julie for five days, very thankful for that!
Visited with Matt at the bank where he is assistant manager at WAMU downtown Seattle. I usually get lost, but this this time? I found the parking right away! Plus they validated for two hours, guess I could do my Christmas shopping downtown, eh?

My PM doc is wonderful. I told him I was having peaks and valleys in the pain department, and he upped my break-through pain meds. Doubled the amount. Crap insurance.
Dennis, my husband doesn't know if he will be home for Thanksgiving, which is also our wedding anniversary this year. And the day after is Dennis Daniel and Britts renewal of vows and Baby Lou's christening. I hope and pray he makes it back!

I go to Eugene for Cousin Alice' birthday party on the 11NOV. Flights look wide open. The cousins from Sunnyside WA are going to meet me there, and pick me up. Uncle Burt and Gwen are going to be there too.
I look forward to it.

Okay here goes I will post, I will post more


Been busy this summer, and been so many places. I need to update my life here in this blog. Things are about the same pain wise for me, but I am dealing with it.


I have attended the ASAP conference in Seattle in July and met wonderful people. I have met my fellow chiarian friends, and exchanged emails with them.

I met my relatives in Sunnyside, WA. I also met a wonderful lady who isn't chiarian, but is having surgery at TCI later this year due to her Jefferson fracture(the same as Christopher Reeve) and she is a lovely woman and her husband is wonderful as well.


I took care of my Dad's ashes in Chelan, WA a couple of weekends ago, and I am a new NANA!
See Louisa Pieta Donohoe. My son Dennis and his wife Britt are the proud parents of Louisa. She was born on September 4, 2007 and weighed in at 8lbs 5oz. Born in Kirkland , WA.
Isn't she gorgeous?

I am unsure how to make things better. I am working on myself.

What did I do to make things so bad? Am I such a horrible person? Maybe I am.

All I know is that my pain levels are through the roof. What to do? what to change? Where do I start?
