Title: One Year Later.....
Post by Jill on Mar 12^th, 2003, 11:14am

....and not a day pain free. :(

It was one year ago today that this madness all began and I remember that first hit like it was yesterday. :'(

One year without a single day painfree ::) and those painfree days that are promised to come are looking farther and farther away.

Just wanted to vent (or whine - depending on how you see it) about it here. Guess that I never thought that this day would actually come.... :-/

Thanks everyone for all of the support during this and for any support in the future. You know who you are and I hope that each one knows that they did make a difference. I wouldnt be here without any of you....

Thanks
Jill

Jill-
What an anniversary, darlin'. I'm sending out a new supply of hugs for you, and along with them, more strength to help you cope. Wish I could do more-a year is a lonnnng time to deal with these hardcore hits you get.
Keep looking for answers, keep banging on doors. Keep yourself healthy and safe, and keep posting-people need to know what a teeny-tiny 20 yr old GIRL can do when it comes to this nasty, mean-spirited, horrendously painful affliction. :-/
Ya got love, Jill- tons of it.
Oh, and Martin- I know, I have made you my personal whipping post- I hope you know, it is truly only in jest. I have so much respect for you, and what you've done for Jill. I do believe you very well could've saved her life. Thank you- you're quite a guy.
Cathi :-* :-*i

Jill-

We're glad to hear from you, even if you have to vent. So many people here truly care about you.

I admit I've slacked off on my praying, but I've got a reminder to get you back on my list. Unfortunately, that list just keeps getting bigger & bigger because so many people are hitting hard times right now.
I truely understand what you're going through (I hit my 2 year anniversary of daily headaches last month). It's not a fun anniversary!

At least your parents have come full circle now and are supporting you. And thank God for Martin!
I'm sorry that you are going through such an awful time. Stay strong!

Virginia

okay Jonny, that was not right at all. I have held my tongue for so long with you, let things slide that were bothersome but this time, no way.

I guess that next you are going to make some remark about you being 27 years chronics? Going to remark on how great that makes you because you survived without whining?

As I recall in a recent post, you stated this

"1 to 5 aday......with a PF day every 5 days.

With meds.....1-2 every three days with sometimes three weeks PF "

Am I right? And then in another post you say that you are 27 years chronic which means that you get hit every single day...what? ???

To me, you are lucky. What I wouldnt give for two hits a day, heck even five and be done with it. I dont have a break from the pain, for me it actually comes every single day with no break. I have no med that works and the only options that I seem to have left is to either try narcotics or get an operation.

So please dont "Wah" at me. I never thought that you would post under mine and I have waited for this moment as every other time I have not wanted to stir trouble where I need not be. In all honesty, I dont have too much respect for you because of the way that you seem to treat others and maybe some people like that, then that is fine - do it to them but leave me out of it.

To everyone else, I am truly sorry for this. This is not the best day that I have had. Thank you for your kind words, good vibes and hugs. You guys are the true reason for this board.

Jill

Jill,
Keep up the fight. That you have survived is truly a testament to your strength. Prayers are still going out for you. I have been praying for just one pain free day. When that comes I will have to start on two. Don't know what else to do. Have you got to that treatment center yet?
Opus :P

PS Give em hell >:(

Hey Jill, you just keep up the good fight. Some day you are gonna find what works for you and this will all be behind you. In the meantime .... remember ...... we never suffer for nothing .... nothing is ever done for nothing .... it depends how you play the hand you were dealt in life where you end up at the end of the game. Stay strong and play hard.

Jill, darlin'-
Have I told you before not to say SORRY? Let me answer that....YES!! A lot of times- never apologize for venting about your hits!!
It's been a long year, and I have watched you, since, what? October? You have gained so much strength and spirit and FIGHT!! In Karate, they call it the Bushido Spirit- well, you've got it now Jill.
Nope, never say sorry. A year is a very long time to endure the waves of hits, as intense as they are. Keep looking for answers, keep fighting, and let's ALL hope that by this time next year, we will read a post from you that begins with "Pain Free".
