@kimspr3 I can understand your anger, but it doesn’t help you. Is there someone you can talk to? Your minister? A therapist? Support group? Can you look around? It would certainly be helpful. You also mentioned wanting to volunteer. Have you checked with your local hospital? Or day care centers? I know you don’t drive, but many towns have ride services for those who can’t drive. Good way to get to a volunteer job!
Or maybe you can research assistance for the disabled. Will you try some of these suggestions? We really care about you

Hi Becky, When people care I appreciate it so much thank you so much. People caring is so rare It always makes me cry. I see a Psychologist only when my husband can bring me. About once a month I can't sit long, stand, long, bending I use one of the handicap sticks for laundry etc. Hard to shower, bending, twisting so sponge baths. I would like a support group, clergy, it's getting there. I live in the country everything is spread out. I called clergy, there was no one close to pick me up. I never thought of calling Assistance for the Disabled. I promise I will do that after the holiday. I will look into what you suggested. I"m here also for others. Will you be going to a BBQ? Hope you, are feeling good today?
