People who tell me theyll take me out for a drink but then never do. Worst is that THEY took the initiative -- without any prodding on my part. Its strangd that it happens to me so much...

yep. muscular dystrophy is a motherfucker. 2 years is what they tell me. Whatever, guess I'm ready.

I went through this topic in class before, mad kudos for you for being able to pull through it. Must be a total bitch getting by day for day alone.

sucks that I'm dying
can't stand incompetent doctors
hate how much my care costs
sucks that my sister has epilepsy
hospital food tastes like shit
to the nurses: take your interpersonal squabbles elsewhere; I don't want to hear that shit

That pretty much sets the standard for things that bother you.

Sorry to hear this, I hope your remaining time is as good as it can be. If I was rich, I'd send you a smokin hot hooker and the biggest bag of blow you've ever seen. Since I'm poor, I'll can offer is my very best wishes.

Just got home from eating dinner at my grandma's. The dog shit and pissed all over the floor again. I don't know why my parents don't put her down already. It's like they are trying to see if she will break a record for the oldest, most senile dog. Or the record for the most number of times having to clean piss off the floor.

Whiny sniveling kids who live with their parents and complain about the things their parents do.

SsupernovaE sorry to hear of your impending demise.

While we all know that from the minute we're born, we start to die, in your case, it's a bit more sudden and definite.

-People who drive any speed under the posted the speed limit, won't signal when turning, think their car is a horse and just stop wherever they want so they can talk to their friend who also thinks their car is a horse
-People who have "meetings" in hallways which block the flow of traffic - that's what Meeting rooms are for! [Intel employees are notorious for doing this]

Supernova has it easy. I lost my dad in 6 months cuz of Lou Gherigs disease.
Actually, maybe its better to go quick. I'm not sure.

After watching my father waste away I know damn well I'm not going out like that. I'd sooner take my own damn life than have it drained from me slowly.

That sucks man. Anything we can do to help?

:( I am speechless. How bad are your symptoms today (if it's too personal a question, forgive me.)

I'm functionally a quadriplegic, am ventilator dependent, and have congestive heart failure. Pretty much the final stages.

It's funny though, everyone I've known with this disease remained somewhat functional until the end. I don't pity myself, in fact, I consider myself lucky. I wasn't supposed to live to see 20. I'm now 32.

How are you able to type? A quad can't move from the neck down right?

There are alternate methods to typing on forums. Have been from one where even fully-legally blind people can post, without the use of voice transcription.

I can't begin to understand what you are going through but I can relate. One of my good friends go shot in the neck when she was 17. She went from being a total hottie with everything going for her to a quad who the doctors weren't able to promise any amount of time to. She's still a quad but she is way happier than before she got shot.

Glad to hear your keeping positive. Again...if there is anything I can do to help you out, just let me know.

I've got another complaint.

I hate it when i cut my toe, then my feet start to sweat, thus stinging my toe.
