~Moods~

Well.. I am in a very bad mood again... I found out

yesterday that Wright Filippis has decided NOT to

provide a chair for me..since I am the one that doesn't

want to do what I need to ..to be able to get one..NOW.

does THAT sound right? I NEED the chair..so I would

try to stop me getting one or make it hard to get one?

That is what my Health Plan of Michigan Insurance

person told me Deborah... Since I refused to accept the

chair that JOHN said I needed they have decided NOT

to pursue selling me another one.. They got caught trying

to pedal a 9000 chair on me..that I did NOT want is what

I think ..They maybe figgured they were dealing with some

old stupid woman that would just accept what they say..

The chair they brought was awful..I looked on line last nite

at chairs..and EVERY single one had the joy stick on the

right..NOT the left like it was on that chair they brought..

They LIED to me and said on the LEFT was the side it

usually came on.. I had to have the front tires to be more

stable in a raising chair..JOHN did not tell me that.. He

did all his measureing and stuff looked over my old one,

and THEN HE told me what HE thought I should have.. I

saw a great one..a quickie..that would be great.. I really

liked it..and it was ONLY 5000...Anyway.. Im back to

square one again...

When I talked to the head guy with the chair dept and told

him I wont do a side transfer..how did he expect me to get

out and into this chair by myself with out a front transfer..

He had NO idea or even would consider the fact that it was

Dangerous for a dak to do a side transfer..well unless there

is something to block the forward fall should that happen..

When I told him this he had NO idea what I meant yet he

was a wheel chair expert..well If you arent IN one..and have

to USE one daily I think part of the education of being an

expert is NOT complete then.. At least in my opinion... Yet

I get accused of hindering my getting a chair..amazing..

I am so furious about this I could just spit.. I have even a hard

time talking about it let alone writing about it.. In 2..as in TWO

months it will be ONE as in 1 year that I have been trying to get

a power chair..and I am the one they say is causing the delay.
Deborah said that's because some of the wheelchair places

wont deal with me..and YES..that's probly true..If I don't like what

they do or say or how they act your RIGHT..I get pissy. and I say

just how it is.. and they don't like it..They prefer to deal with

mousey people that are so intimidated and scared they will lose

what they have they go along with what ever is put before them.

I WONT... I told Theresa today about this..she was really upset..

and gave me a couple good places to go to see about stirring

up a stink about this.. this is WRONG!!

Penny has a job at one of the senior apts here to clean the building

she said many have talked to her..that need someone to help them.

one dear lady 83, cannot get someone to come in there and help

her.. and she is so afraid and doesn't KNOW how to help herself

get what she needs.. I feel so sorry for these people that they are

being so intimidated and made to feel they are just damn lucky

they get a free what ever it is lunch... I told Theresa about that

too.. All these places that are supposed to help..like COA and

they say..no charge..but heres your donation bill..then wanted my

insurance info to bill them for a ride for me to the Dr. yet it was a

ride paid by donation.. I don't understand... but I sure would like

to get on that COA board.. I bet they would all do uglies in their

undies if I did that .. I have thought about it tho.. something has

to be done..these people are scared..and they don't even tell

their family for fear they will say something to coa and they get

in trouble..its sad.. these dearies deserve better than this... So

much crap going on everywhere...

I got some plastic runners for in here on the floor .. I honestly

don't think it will work.. I think they will still sink down and be

just as hard to navigate on.. Penny will help me put them down

tomorrow.. We put risers under my couch yesterday..its so

funny lookin.. The risers are 6 inch ones.. Theresa's feet almost

didn't hit the floor!!! I had to laugh.. I need shorter ones the

blocks of wood I had before were 2inches thick and were 2 of

them.. they worked good.. now with my couch this high you can

see all the crap I have hidden under it.. that's not good.. I had

forgotten where I put my keyboard..so I was glad to see it.. Its

a musical one.. I can play it..one hand tho.. I would give any

thing to learn how to play 2 hands.. I love piano music..well I

like any kind of music.. A friend sent me some cds of violin

music that is just wonderful..so soothing.. Very talented.. I

really enjoy them...

Lunch was awful and I didn't eat it..and of course that means

this mean hateful lady that is sabotaging her wheel chair

acquisiton is hungry..well time to eat.. calm down and watch

some TV and of course..say.."nitey nite"...

Y'all have a good one now Y'hear? love ya..and thanks..

Always,Lois ****

God Bless you is my prayer today,

I'm so honored to call you "friend";

I pray the Lord will keep you safe

until I write again..
