Accountable to my Goals Mood
Monday, March 30, 2009 | A General Update story

For the MS first part: 

Today I got a call from the New York Upstate Chapter to see if I was still interested in becoming a Peer Support member. Of course, I was excited. They said they'd call in the spring and I've been waiting for a couple weeks now. I have a class to train at the end of April and I'm on my way!

For the MS second part:

   This will be one of three things I intend to do as my part of becoming an advocate. I'm in line to talk to the Political Activist organizer and I also plan to find out if there is a protocol for addressing misinterpretations in the ADAA, and if not, to develop a system of my own that I can notify, monitor and modify the places I encounter in my usual travels that are not easily or at all accessible to me!

And in the Second Advocacy position:

     - as a Medical Billing Advocate, I have finished my program, but now await approval of my application and need income to pay for membership, permits, and the books I will use to conduct business.

As for goal two, to walk:

   I just started another series of physical therapy to address the tone in my right leg. I will have my chair cushion evaluated as it appears to interfere with my circulation and my feet swell frequently when I sit in it for extended time periods. I also have sit bone pain that gets bad enough to keep me from falling asleep at night and I will work on alleviating that. The theracycle has become a daily routine, but as of last nights running marathon, will address the fact that I may be on it too long or too fast as my legs don't seem to want to STOP moving once I'm done exercising them!~

Namaste
