Sorry but you do have to go through hoops sometimes to get the help you
need. You may not like it but that's part of life. I think I've said
enough already.

valuation I think is enough. It's really crazy. I mean really but I'll do both
of them. I have the one on Tuesday and then I'll have another one. But it's
really crazy why they have to have two nurses come here. One is for the state I
guess to prove that I really need the home care and the other one is determine
how many hours. Why haven't even had the surgery yet so I don't know how many
hours I'm going to need anyway. So I don't know why they're making that
estimation now.

Hi, Kathleen,
I agree with Linda. Try to keep calm and just answer the nurse and doctor's
questions. I don't always like dealing with some things sighted people do but
sometimes we have to put up with some things in life. Getting angry will only
make things worse. I have hypertension and that's been a hard lesson I've had
to learn. Just be honest about your situation and maybe things will go
smoother. It's important to try to stay calm.

Kathleen, I know you're really frustrated with what's going on, but please,
please, dear, try to keep your cool. Remember that there are a lot of people
who haven't been around blind people, and as much as we may not like to do it,
we want to be good ambassadors for other people they meet later who may be
blind, and if she asks you the inevitable question about "do you have sighted
help," just say no, my family lives upstate and aren't in a position to help me
at all. Come up with a sentence or so to explain and then just leave it at
that. Things will go much smoother for you if you can keep your cool even
though you may not like what you're having to go through to get the services you
need.

Some people of left already. Some people from the six floor. They've already
going to Stuyvesant town. The temporary apartment building. Everybody on my
floor is still here. None of us have left. Oh I take that back. One person is
leaving tomorrow. My neighbor across the hall. I guess she decided to leave
early early made the decision for her. But I just hope this nurse is nice on
Tuesday. I hope that she's not patronizing and condescending either. Because I
think if she was I think I would just blow my cool

Here's hoping you get some answers tomorrow.

I'm glad someone from the care agency finally got back to you, and that a
is seeing you on Tuesday and a doctor is seeing you after that. Certainly,they
will understand your need for additional help to move, and it could be thatthey
know resources that can help.
Hoping and praying so, Kathleen.

Well I think I got stuff straightened out. I did call the agency back
hewhatAnd
I did told him I wanted services. On Tuesday this nurse is supposed to comeand
see me. She supposed to ask me a ton of questions. She even wants to see
supplements are used. I kind of wonder about that but oh well. I wonder ifthis
agency is anti-supplement who knows. But anyway I do you some. Let's put itthis
way I'll sure what she wants to know. Anyway that's the way that goes. Then
after she sees me this doctor is supposed to come and see me too. I guess
she'sseesupposed to do some kind of exam here. I never had something like that donebut
oh well. That's her long-term care if I want to permanently. So let's just
what happens. Well I talked to my neighbor across the hall from me and
thentheleaving for the renovation. She's leaving on Friday. So I have no idea whenI'm
leaving. I guess I'm gonna have to go down the second floor and ask. AnywayI'm
going to have to tell them what's going o
n with me too. Maybe I should've done it sooner but oh well I didn't have
that'saroundemotional energy to do it. Not making any excuses but every time I walk
and stuff like that or try to move my right arm it hurts. So basically
how that goes. Maybe it's a bit of minor depression because of pain but
line;anyI'magain I physical therapist says that's normal. But I need to find out when
leaving and I don't have packing help either. I just hope I get to go away.But
anyway I'm going to celebrate my birthday on Sunday. Maybe I'll make the
appointment for Wednesday or Thursday and get that over with so if I have
Sharon,alcohol and will be gone.things
