Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,
Possuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuums!
Coming to you from the Celebrity Suite of the Wyndemere Condominiums at Turtle Creek. Today is Wednesday, August 16.
Keep the heat on, Possums, at least through the night. The cold front remains in Dallas through today. The high today is 96 degrees. However, tomorrow we are back up to 108. Uuuuugggghhhhhh! And we will remain over 100 degrees for the next TEN DAYS.
Happy Birthday to:
Calvin Ku
Katie Phan Simon

Good Afternoon, Possums and Happy Wednesday and Happy Hump Day - we made it half way through the week. Is this week creeping along or is it just me? I have been quite busy - taking care of this and that - but time seems to be moving slowly.
I think it’s time to visit the eye doctor. A new, stronger prescription is in order. But I am not a fan of the eye doctor or putting anything near my eyes. And all the tests and the eye drops? No thank you.
However, if it wasn’t for my (then) eye doctor sending me to the emergency room (and my Bestie, Roger R Carbajal,making me go) my MS might have gone undetected for a while longer. It all started in my right eye with what I thought (self diagnosis via google search and WEB MD) was cataracts. Turns out, it wasn’t cataracts. After all those years of watching ER, Grey’s Anatomy and even Scrubs, my personal diagnosis was way off. But I digress…
But back to glasses…picking out the frames is fun. I still have a gift card I won in a silent auction for $250 (I bid $30 or $40) for designer fames. Field Trip!
In other news:
Wheelchair Status - I checked online and a new tab has been added (it’s a good thing). The Tab is labeled “Equip Ordered” and it says:
“Your order has been approved by your insurance provider or funding source. Your Numotion team has now placed an order to purchase the necessary components for your order. Once we receive the equipment, we will begin assembly and contact you to confirm delivery information.”
I finally have confirmation that Insurance has covered he cost of my new wheelchair. YAY!!!
SSA Case Status - Up from 18% to 19% Complete
Supplemental SSA - Up from 9% to 10% Complete
Kankle News -I have a right ankle/foot and mostly a left ankle/foot but it feels like it could blow up at any moment. Call me crazy but I think that faulty valve is just messing with me. It pumps the blood to my heart when it wants to and only then.
Podcast - waiting to meet with my cohosts. Yesterday, I made a spreadsheet and started laying out the episodes, segments and confirming guests/topics. Pardon my French, but Merde is getting real. Stay tuned.
For any new Possums joining in, I know this is a lot to read through and it may seem like rambling (it is sometimes - I blame the meds), but I am documenting my journey with MS so anyone else with MS that stumbles upon this knows they are NOT alone.
Anyhoozle, that’s all I have for today. I hope you all have a GREAT day!
Whatever your day holds and whatever your plans may be, I wish you all a SPECTACULAR day. Do everything today with kindness in your heart. The world is full of kind people. If you can’t find one, be one!
To all of my fellow MS Warriors, keep fighting the good fight. And to all MS Warrior Supporters, Thank You! Your support means everything.
Peace, Love and Blessings to you all. -AJ
