So..the new doc is great. I really like her a lot. I am seeing her weekly I took two weeks off while getting reading for some other activities, but will be seeing her on Tue again.
The dentist was a bust. They say I need special treatment for my gums, and it runs about $4,000 dollar. Yes, four zeros worth. Then to fix the rest of my mouth, about the same amount again. I simply can't afford that. Not remotely. I found a dental discount program, and I guess I'll see what I can do to get some work done. But it's so depressing, I find myself avoiding working on it at all, just taking more ibuprofen for it.
Good news is I figured out that my 70% is 'static' which means permanent in VA lingo. Whew.
The bad news is that its been since early last Sept that I filed my unemployability, almost 8 months, but that it normally takes about 2.5 years for them to make a decision on it. If luck is bad and its denied, it can take another 3 years to get the appeal done. :-( That's really really sad.
Otherwise, other then dealing with the PTSD, and getting very frustrated over politics I won't mention here, life is good. K had spoiled me by getting me all the supplies to get my garden going just like I wanted to, and I am spending a lot of time in it.
I have another post to make about a recent event I was a speaker at...
Myst,
over and out
