Do I have ignor my needs written on my shirt?
Ok, It is 12 days after my last phone call to the doctors office where they will make an appointment for me on January 6th and mail me the info... as of today, I have not heard what time it is and I do not even know if it is at one site or the other. I called today and left a message on their message machine. I need to know when this appointment is, incase I do indeed find a ride to take me. So far no one wants to rearrange their work schedule to take me to this unknown appointment, even though I asked them too several weeks ago before work schedules were made. I also told them if I can't make this appointment, they could not scedule me an appointment until the end of March (more than one year since I started this process).
Well, there have been several other situations I could mention, but I feel my needs are being ignored. Can I shout louder than I am?
From Aunt Pam... whose needs ARE important!
AUNT PAM (((((((((big warm hug)))))))))))
Your needs ARE important! If I lived 3000 miles closer,I would be glad to take you
Have you tried laying the good old guilt trip? You know......the one that goes something like........"I changed your dirty diapers and pushed your big butt into this world.......and you cant take me to one lousy appointment??!!" or the ever-popular " thats alright....I'll get there somehow *big sigh*...maybe I'll hitchhike"
good luck Pam!

MAKE SOME NOISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have always taken care of everyone else and you take tons of crap on top of that... Don't sit there being sad and neglected.. get in their face and use the guilt and screaming until they hear you!!
Just see it as you helping them not to be so self centered!! LOL
AND call that dr's office until you get a live person... if you don't have the energy for all of this then post those numbers and your smore's will get on the phones and get you some answers!
Good Luck Hon.. Keep fighting!!
Oh Aunt Pam. What would you tell one of us if that was one of our posts. Of course get in their face and get demanding. Make sure to tell them that this is important and you told them ahead of time.that you would need a ride, where are their loyalties at. you need help and unfornantly sometimes you have to demand that to get it. Good luck, love marie
