      From ChristineInCleveland Yesterday

      Hey thanx 4 the friend request- I just recently thinned down my friends list to just the people who actually stay in touch, so I can manage it easier! Sure I would be happy to get better acquainted. One thing to tell u: I don't use a laptop/desk PC- only a BlackBerry cuz of the convenience/portability. But being a small device, I can't do certain functions like use the "chat" feature on DS, or put up a personal avatar. Just duznt work in my device! So otherwise I can surf the net, send/recieve Email, GPS locations, etc. Seems a good fit 4 me, cuz I'm not a PC user @ all!
      Anyway write me anytime, I'll answer soon as get chance... Luv, Chistine

      From ChristineInCleveland Tuesday

      Oh I forgot you don't live in the USA right? So u wouldn't know the org. I mentioned. But still there must be soc.servcs in your area to call- & even some Churches come to pick u up to go on Sundays, or have members willing to vollunteer for the sick/disabled- u just have to get on the phone & start searching! My prayers are with u! :)

      From ChristineInCleveland Tuesday

      It sounds like u are having a rough time with pain u suffer with in your back. I hope u are careful with Rx drugs, as many lose effect after awhile & u can't keep raising dosage. All pain meds have to be carefully controlled or hurt other internal organs, even Tylenol! U probly know all that. But in your cond I would think you are on Disability, right? Who takes care of your groceries & stuff? U could call Easter Seals in your area- they can give u all kinds of organizations to help u. Plz don't suffer with your situation cuz there are people in your area to help! Just ask! :)
