I've got "People"

Post by Bluebonnet_Gal » Wed Jan 14, 2009 4:20 pm

Have ya'll seen that commercial from a popular tax preparer stating if you use them for your taxes, you're never alone - "you've got people"!

It dawned on me today that I'm NOT ALONE in this. I've got People! You people!

I'm so thankful and grateful for all the help I've received here. Also thankful and grateful to read many of your stories and realize that the way I've been feeling for years (tired, exhausted all the time) wasn't because I was lazy, unmotivated or a loser. It's because I've suffered so long from OSA. Also, very thankful that I'm not alone in this!

Just wanted to send out some THANKS and some *HUGS*!!!

Gail

Everyone has been a great help to me. I can't imagine trying to figure this out on my on. There are so many things that the doctors and the DME do not tell you. Thank goodness for this forum. I'm so grateful.

That is one of the plus's of the internet. It brings people together. Not always in a good way but this is a great group!
By the way Bluebonnet Girl, I am from Texas too.

Just imagine what if 100 of us ganged up on the CEO of a DME or a doc for some nefarious practice... or sent an open letter to the NY Times about it.

Yes, I feel like "I have people" too. Thanks for letting me just vent here too. As far as participating in some "jobs", I am 1 1/2 hours from the Chicago South side. I am sure I could recruit some seasoned professionals... Thanks for the humor also, Lovey

Oooooh, this is feeling kinda deja vooey. Might this friend have made a somewhat disappointing trip to Gettysburg in the past few weeks?
