California My passion is Writing To give of myself to others, because I should, to be a light in other's lives, to avoid Cancer if I can...to inspire others to reach for their goals,even if they are small goals, at first! [email protected]
I was hit by a drunk driver head on going 80 in 1974 and am a disabled vet, age 55, a long time writer, just a quiet soul. I try to help everyone I can. Because I have had IBS for 6 months my diet changed drastically and I hope my Cancer risks have been lowered! All one can do is try to eat healthy and hope for the best! I am for the most part pain free, having to wear 2 back supports 24-7 , but I am happy and that is all that counts. I wish you all a great day. If you like ghost stories feel free to drop by my author website at www.whendarknesscomes.com
 
If you have lower back pain, believe me, you do NOT have to accept that back pain. The 2 $25.00 back supports I wear help me to escape 90% or more back pain. I wear them 24-7 and hardly notice them. Mine came from wal-mart and you may only have to wear one, and perhaps your life will be better. I hope it will. If anyone would like to learn more about what you can do to help prevent Cancer, please e-mail me. I can e-mail you several files and you can be much more informed as to all the little things that will make a big difference in your health.

I'm a 50 year old female. My 20 year old son lives with me. This arthritis has affected my life. I don't want to go anywhere or do anything. My doctor says that if it's not RA, I have excessive wear and tear on my body. I am currently being treated for OA...but the medication does not help. My fingers are starting to disfigure. To all who post me I will return an answer. It gets lonely being in the house all the time, doesn't it?

States are very lax in mandating accessibility laws ( federal ada laws ).
states and county's quote "we don't enforce fed law".
Fed law is minimum requirement for the country.so follow them by adapting them and enforce your own law instead of grandfather clauses .
