mrbigstuff, it's a big deal right now if I can get up off the bed and walk to the bathroom.
A short time ago I was much stronger, but suddenly I relapsed and I don't know why.
Needless to say, I feel terribly frustrated.
One issue that I have is my driver's license has expired and it will be difficult, without assistance, to get to the DMV, much less to make an appointment.
If I manage that then I will be faced with finding a suitable vehicle that runs well and I can afford. That was one thing that led me to ask about a "go fund me."
You can tell how tough it is for me without a network of friends and family that could pitch in and assist me in getting back on my feet.
Oh well...!
... at least I will have a room to myself.
