So if you can help me, even if it is $5, please do. Pretty please. Even reskeets are helpful. I put my QR codes below. I am not receiving any disability, if I were I wouldn’t need the help. Thank you and I’m sorry again. 🥺😭 #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest #PleaseHelp

Was exhausted when I got home. This is a lot to process which is why I’m up at 3 am doing so. All of these years of begging some of these damned doctors to listen and I was right damnit. This has cost me so much time, money and sanity. So much fighting on my own to get the help I needed.

Got a headache, took my meds. That was a lot of time sitting up today. Then I heard my mom complain about me not moving enough. 🙄 I’ve said a million times I can’t trust my legs to just go on a damned walk.

And I definitely need that damned rollator with a seat. Can’t get it but to walk longer distances, yeah I need it. Used the cane this morning and it hurts. I don’t trust my legs. 😂😂

I have my appointment with that health company that’s supposed to help with appointments tomorrow morning at 8 am.

So nerves aren’t firing right and it’s different than before neck surgery, not carpal tunnel and more upper levels involved. I have an appointment in January and need to bring my MRI results.

Freaking cane trucks, nearly caused an accident this morning. If you’re turning and cause someone to have to brake hard and come to a complete stop to get on the highway, you’re an asshole. You knew damned well you shouldn’t have turned!

This is an overt policy of white supremacy. This man is a fascist. Republicans have told us who they are. Democrats in office need to stop pretending this isn't full blown fascism.

i've been buried under a migraine all day but it would be awesome if we could hit yesterday's goal while I'm making another attempt at sleeping. 🙏⚒️💕💸🏳‍⚧♿💜
No luck yesterday, and what we collected before is already eaten up paying bills and putting in bulk medicine orders!

We have a cell phone bill due tomorrow, AND the few days worth of groceries we keep buying DO only last a few days!

$200 goal for today's collections as we attempt to pick up momentum!

Haven't been speaking about it much in the struggle, but we do have plans to expand our disabled folks' co-op once we are indoors and can start working again!

Getting there is just the first step!

I’m going to miss her so much.

MRI tomorrow, in town fortunately, and EMGs and follow up after on Wednesday. Those are unfortunately out of town.

I can’t ever mention anything to my mom about affording things without her jumping in and bitching. Ma’am you can actually buy things every month, even though I agree your SSI is too low. You actually have money coming in and you have furniture and your car is taken care of while mine is not.

Thanks for the $5 yesterday, got an unexpected donation that’s honestly a big help. I’ve been driving so much for appointments and I’ve burned a lot of gas! Thank you! ♥️♥️♥️

The DreamTree Project is our local shelter agency. The shelter serves everyone, but DreamTree itself particularly serves at-risk youth, with emphasis on 2SLGBTQIA young people. They're trying to fill 100 holiday stockings for them. Can we clear their wishlist? www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

The freaking nerve pain that my pain management doctor activated has been yelling at me for the past few days! I didn’t have this particular nerve issue until he did that medical branch ablation.

I have a puppy sitting on my shoulder and chewing her turkey tendon. This is one of those life is good moments.

I did joke that she should be named Polly. 😂😂

Important thread 🧵
I went to an "ojos" training tonight hosted by New Orleans DSA and Union Migrante and thought I'd pass on new things I learned:

1. Low/old info ICE sighting posts are wreaking havoc on immigrant communities. Basically, incomplete or old info is actively harmful (even if ppl have good intentions)

Made my pharmacist actually throw his head back and laugh when I told him that I got a letter from my insurance that they may actually pay for it, so I wanted to tell him so he didn’t fall down from surprise if it happened 😂

Yesterday was a lot. We went to my sister’s in-laws house for what was supposed to be a few hours. Well, her dog fell in the pool and had to be rescued from the pool, thank you to the 2 women who jumped in after her! My sister was worried she’d hurt her spine so it was off to the emergency vet.

Oh god, I just realized that since my doctor wouldn’t let me fill my prescription today because my fill date is Thanksgiving and the pharmacy isn’t open, I now get to to go on Black Friday. That just pissed me off more.

I’m having to lend money to someone who makes 100 times what I do in a year and has a husband that makes 300 times what I do in a year. Make it make sense.
