Amputee life before and after...

Friday, April 07, 2006

~My 2 Cents Again~ :-)


I watched a show on TV last night about wannabe's..And I
maybe shouldnt even discuss it as I get really upset about this
subject I feel insulted, I guess I cant explain how I feel towards
them- than they can about wanting their legs amputated.. How
someone would want their legs gone I just dont understand..and
I really DON'T want to ... The one man on that show said..well I
want to be a sak..and I dont want my leg. IF I amputate it I can
get a prosthesis--? Then WHY take the leg off? This is a very
sore subject for me..THIS is NOT easy..the pain and the things
we have had NO choice but to go thru and these people WANT
this inflicted on themselves? then they have to be sadistic. Or
just CANNOT fathom just exactly WHAT this is like..

Amputees that are born that way have NO idea..They KNOW
no other way..Their heads dont know their missing limbs are
gone..what I was told by a quad friend of mine and one that
is a triple amputee...ITs TOTALLY different than being what
they call some one like me a traumatic amputee...This is
DAILY pains..aches, cramps..smushy feelings, needles and
sharp jabs of pain..so hard they make all of your body jump.
And someone says THEY WANT this? well i wish they KNEW
how to do leg transplants..if it stopped all this that I go thru
give me their legs..even a MANS hairy legs i'll take you know?
Just sew them ugly puppies right on the end of these stumps
I have here..I'll take them..(hope he has nice toes) :-)

This is a bad subject for me, and I cant really HELP it I just
dont understand wannabe's..I have tried..and I have even been
approached by some..and I try to understand.. but I just Honestly
cant say that I do..I can understand the DEvotee thing alot easier!
THAT to me is more Logical than a wannabe.. I dont want to
insult these people..but I feel they insult me...and I cant help that.
but I wont apologize either.. I didnt like that show at all..and I
dont think I will ever watch it again.. I think they should have had
an amputee on the same show telling them just what it was like
in case none of them OBVIOUSLY have NOT REALLY talked to
someone like me, and to be honest? I really DONT want to talk to
a wannabe..I just have a very hard time accepting such careless
disregard for their own body, If that was how they were meant to
be one way or another it WOULD happen..

Well now that I aired my dirty laundry on that subject.. I have been
really avoiding it as I have knowledge of the lady in that show.. Not
personally..and I will not judge her or any of the men on it.. But I
just cannot accept it.. and gladly I DONT have to.. I am NOT saying
that Miss Lilly was not a nice person..or those men.. I do NOT know
them personally I know who one of them are tho.. If they didnt want
comments on this..then they should have kept it quiet..and you know
me.. I have an opinion on everything.lol.. and this is MY blog...lol...
I guess I feel sorry for them.. they think they are miserable NOW?
cause they WANT their legs gone? lol..wait...see what they think
when and if they CAN get them amputated lol. THIS AINT FUN...

I can truthfully say, however..I have so many new, good, dear friends
because of my amputations..that I would never have met, had this
not happened to me.. and THAT is one of the good things that has
come out of this tragedy...besides the fact I dont have to go to work
anymore LOL... I wouldnt trade my new friends for anything..I guess
its like I said..there is GOOD in even BAD things..and this subject
for me is a BAD thing..thus endeth this subject NEVER to be
brought up again.. well.. unless I'm provoked LOL.. but I HAD to
give my opinion and we all have those...:-)

Rae was here today and we are squeaky clean for the week end..
I am glad..i shall be very careful NOT to mess it up..lol..well if I do
I just have to CLEAN it up, so if I AM careful..well less work for me.
I am hungry and I am going to go and find some food..I have NO
idea what I want some thing will yell at me when I get out there to
eat it, just got to hear it...so good thing its early i have time before that
movie comes on I want to see.. I forgot the name of it, (I DONT feel
like dancing Heimer..No waltzing tonite lol..I'm tired)... :-) I am
hitting Publish NOW..Nitey nite...

Y'all have a good one now Y'hear? Luv Ya and Thanks !!!
Always, Lois ****

May God Bless you today,
I'm so honored to call you friend,
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,

    Good Morning, I feel a bit sorry for these people..To hate the body that was given to you IS a very SAD thing..and to want to mutilate it deliberately I just have a hard time accepting...

    I dont say these are bad people by any means.. but they do need help..and I wish they would really discuss just what its like to be like this with people that really KNOW and I think that show should have given amputees time as well...

    I'm so glad you are no longer a wannabe, this is SO not fun...trust me....good luck my friend.... :-)

    Rob, your just the sweetest thing, I'll be glad when you get your room back and we can chat again..patience my dear.. :-)

    Always, Lois****
