Hi, Yall! I just finished building my website. I sell children's and teen's literature that I write myself. It is available in single story or subscription form. I crow so loudly because it was really HARD to get it done using ZoomText AND unfamiliar software. There was a lot of eyestrain, because I...

Hi, Mike- No, My court date was postponed due to severe weather. I'm too weak and puny to assault anybody, more's the pity somedays, as I know a few folks who desperately need it. :twisted: Fortunately, for me, tho, I have plenty of help and support. AJ takes care of the house and kids so I can work...

HI, Yall! I want to start by welcoming all the wonderful new members to the group, and apologising for my absence of several days. I have been in the process of building my own website, so I can start myself a business. I WILL find a way off disability... :x (We need a "Determined" emotico...

Jacs- Thanks! I hope folks will take the message away that there is never a reason to quit. Quitting just makes you feel like a loser, whether you are or not. Keep trying, you might fail several times before you get there, but when you do get where you're going, it's going to feel that much better B...

HI, There! I had cataract surgery about a year and a half ago. They give you a kit- it contains an eye shield, tape, drops- antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, and I THINK I had a dialator drop. YOu take the drops as directed for a couple days before surgery. When you go for surgery, wear comfy clothe...

Hi, Everybody! I want to welcome everyone to the group. You are definitely not alone in your struggles. Uveitis (all 100 kinds!) is a really rare set of diseases. Sometimes we find an underlying cause, sometimes not. It is the third leading cause of PREVENTABLE blindness in the Industrialised world!...

Hi-

Well, you learn something new every day! I didn't know they still used cocaine for anything at all in legitimate medicine. Nice info!

Mary

Hey, Iwrite- Glad to know you've stopped that nasty stuff! Mike is absolutely right about your eyes and finding a doc. Definitely go see the specialists. Undertreatment of uveitis- not using a STEROID SPARING APPROACH- has made me legally blind. You don't want this for yourself. See the specialist. ...

Dear Iwrite- I don't know any thing about the effects of cocaine use on the eye, as I have no personal experience with cocaine. I do know that cocaine is a stimulant, an 'upper', as it were, instead of a 'downer', like marijuana. Here are my thoughts on the subject- I believe that cocaine is cut wit...

HI, Yall! I finally finished my novel the night before last, and got my submission letter ready. I will submit to Penguin Books next week. I expect a good deal of rejection letters before I finally get it published, but I know I will eventually get there. If it wasn't for ZoomText, I wouldn't even b...

HI, Blackeye- Mike is right- it CAN be depressing to listen to all our tales of woe when your eye is better. DOn't feel bad about being gone for a while. We are here to support one another when we are sick. I am glad you found a cause for your iritis. I have Pars Planitis. I went too long undiagnose...

Anatomy-

I wish you the best of luck, Please keep us informed, if you will.

Mike-
Been working all day on book, 2 articles and a short story. Hands are screaming, face hurts, eyes hurt. Appreciate info, and will read tomorrow. I need to put out more articles, but have to finish book first. Chapter and a half to go!

Thanks, Mikey! This will help my own research as I search for new things to ask about. Also, I found a cousin on my father's side of the family who is willing to talk to me. All my research has been exhaustive everywhere else in the fam, but my Dad's Dad;s folks have been a mystery. So I may gain so...
