Title: People see a Cast...and go "awww"
Post by yikes_another_one on Sep 22^nd, 2004, 7:37pm

:-/
People see a cast, and they immediately
say, "Awww, what happened?"

It's not that they care you are hurt,
they just want to know what you did to
injure yourself.

With our pain,
well, there is no cast....
so most don't even bother to ask,
"Why you cryin'?"

It's the same with insensitive spouses...
which I hope none of you have....

ONe time my sister-in-law had an opperation on
her shoulder....something about her rotator-cup
and as long as the bandage was on, my brother,
bless his ever kind heart
he'd remember not to nudge her,
or hug her on that side of the body.

Once the bandages were off, she was still just
as tender as ever....
and he'd constantly forget,
and hug her or nudge her....
and then act surprised when she yelped in pain.

We have that kind of invisible wound,
the world can't empathize with what it can't see...
and remember that adage...

"Out of sight, out of mind"

Wish I could wear a sign,

"Danger,
Fierce battle rage-ing...."

Or something .

Hey, maybe I'll knit a hat....

what the best colors?

Yellow and black????

lol

wishin us all a few pf hours.....

Good point. Maybe I'll start walking around with 5" nail jammed in my right eye.

Depends on which "it" you're talking about.

Maybe we could come up with a cap with a spike in the top, a nail in the eye and an ice pick in the ear -- that should get some attention.

Maybe then someone would say, awwwwwww!
