Hey Folks, Glad to be Back!
As many of my friends know, I haven't been around for the past 3 or so months, but that hasn't kept me from missing everything concerning WA and the friends I have met here.
And while being away, I never thought for one minute to cancel my monthly membership her at WA. My fiance at times would ask me why do I still have a membership at WA when I'm not doing anything with WA.
As many of you know I have been battling severe chronic pain and physical disabilities. I have been traveling back-in-forth to my neurosurgeon (416 miles) and my pain management doctor (233 miles). It's really been physically and mentally exhausting when you don't have any help especially when you have a child who has Autism. I have been taking him to every appointment with me because his mother can't or, should I say, won't look after him even though she doesn't work.
Many of you know after I had my last back fusion that it didn't help with the severe pain so my neurosurgeon wanted to operate on me and put in a Spinal Cord Stimulator implant in. After the insurance finally approved it, I went for the temporary trial on August 20, and had it in for 3 days before it was taken out. It helped with at least 60% of the chronic pain and I felt like a new man. Since I have had this pain since 1990, I welcome any help I can get.
And Friday, I finally had the permanent Spinal Cord Stimulator implant put in. I was discharged from the hospital this weekend and with the help of my fiance, she got me home OK. I don't know what I'd do without her. She is such a joy!
The permanent one also has helped alleviate the pain by about 60%. What a difference.
But, I still have severe pain in my neck with limited mobility, migraines, pain and numbness down both arms. But things are looking up!
Hopefully, soon I will be able to "Twerk" as they say!! LOL! (Even if I was in perfect physical health, that would never happen.
But, I will be getting back in the swing of things very soon! I realize I haven't been making any money yet, but things will turn around soon. I have always remained POSITIVE and I will continue to be positive no matter what life hands me these days!
Have a great day and keep your nose to the ground!
Danny

Good or you Danny and welcome back. A good woman should help. I had to go 5000 miles to find one. Good luck and much success to you in all your making money online endeavors.
Thanks brother. Thanks for the greeting. Yeah, I had to go back when I was 5 years old to get her. We, at one time played together when we were 5 and on our 40 year class reunion got back together.
Thanks again,
Mark
Went to my 40-year reunion Saturday night. I am the only one who is retired. lol. Bunch of losers. I did not like most of them anyway. I told them they should have smoked more weed, drank more beer, slept thru the advanced classes, and partied like I did. I was stoned for my Valedictorian speech. Good luck with the comeback.

Hi Danny, I happy to hear that you made it through the surgery what a scary procedure. I too recently had my first surgery on my heart and it was terrifying but I'm fine now and you are doing much better, I hear. Much luck and glad to see that you are back.
