Well I went back to the clubhouse after my "bedbug" episode yesterday. I was so quiet everyone could tell I had an attitude probably but I didn't care. I think I was just insulted because I've known the staff for years and I think they would know I didn't have bedbugs. I was trying to be proactive and not reactive. I can't believe they sent me home for 2 freaking hours, because of policy.I think sometimes policy is more important than true caring and that is what hurt.I really trusted the staff and for them to put "policy" over caring is what is devastating me.I am going to continue to attend the club and not let this get to me. I am really hurt though.I am afraid to talk about my hurt over their though because I don't want to cause a scene.

It's raining out againand I can't get you off my mindbut no longer is this the gentle rainof when I wrote that …
Sorry hun. You know the truth so dont let them get to you. Good for you still attend the club but if they say something like that next time tell them they better be prepared to prove it or quit insulting you! Then if they still do it maybe get some advise from a group for the protection of disabled people but then be prepared that they may not let you come back . However you have to weight this the principal of the thing or just let it roll off your back. Good luck

Maybe their policy needs to be discussed? You are strong but what would happen to someone that wasn't as strong as you? Eric

Hey sweets, I understand your upset, but do try to see it from their point of view..In there mind they were probably thinking that bed bugs were like lice and worried that it would be spread to others. So i dont believe that it was an attack against u but I do believe that they should have gone about it another way. They should have researched bed bugs first and pulled u to the side if they believed that u had some sort of bugs that could be spread to others. Do not let this episode upset u, now that they know that u dont have bed bugs and that they arent contagious, hopefully this wont happen to other people at the club. Just try to think of it as they were tryin to look out for the wellbeing of everyone at the club. I really hope that u can discuss this with a counselor and be able to feel comfortable at the club again. I"m here if u evr need to talk to me. Big hugs!

I think it is important that you get your feelings out. I'm glad you have us for that.

Ok, this wouldn't be really a good idea but it would be kind of funny if you ran into the room with a bunch of fake bugs on you yelling "GET 'EM OFF!! GET 'EM OFF". But on a serious side - maybe you can just talk to ONE staff person and let them know how you feel. I think you need to get those feelings out to THOSE people!

Sorry you had to go through that. It must have been embarrasing. People need to be more considerate. Hope the episode is over for you. Hugs. Beth

IfI agree with the others that it sucks what happened. I would talk to one person you are comfirtable with on staff and let them know how hurt you feel. Can't let those feelings fester. XO :)
