@shortshot80 I am very sorry you have two kinds of Lung cancer and more is growing. What you said to @wandajo44 was done very well. I know there are some people that don't believe in taking medicines. My sister is one. She had a stoke and has many other health problems. The doctor told her she wasn't going to get any better. She has pain pills, but waits till her pain gets real bad to take one and then it's hard to continue the pain. I have told her that, but she does what she wants to do.
I feel for you. How hard it must be for you, but it sounds like you have excepted it. Bless your heart! My prayers are sent your way. Hang in there and wanda you need to take your pills too. I know it must be hard being so lonely. Both my sisters are a lone. My oldest sister who is 80 has the most problems. She has a lot of pain. My other sister was the one with the stroke and has pain.
Take care my dear, it must not be hard being disabled too.

@shortshot80 I agree with her, take the pills. I suffer with depression and anxiety and take klonopin for my anti-anxiety and Lexapro and Lamictal for my depression. I take them every day or they will not work. I'm getting anxiety about my fusion surgery, but also happy. I have waited so long and continue to have more pain. I go to Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN. They are wonderful and my surgeon has 4 degrees and one as a Professor and another one Co-professor. He is well qualified and they tested me to see if the surgery will work and I came out positively it will work. I'm sorry you arre disabled. I think I wrote to you before.
