[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 687406, member: 1514"] Thanks everyone! Ponygirl, I was hoping that was you! Okay more of my update. On the subject of Buck....well about the time we moved out of our trailer he moved back to SC. That is where most of Tony's family has lived since the early 70's. We got him on SSI and Tony's sister helped him get it transferred there and got him into public housing. Well that didn't last. He wore out his welcome with everyone there and sometime around the beginning of 2016 he showed up here again but we refused to let him even enter the house. He is living with some girl in this county but we don't have anything to do with him because he is back to being an addict. He will end up in trouble because he is attempting to get pain medications from both NC and SC. I have been in a whole lot of pain ever since the car accident but that also caused me to develop almost incapacitating anxiety. I freak out when cars and especially tractor trailers are near me on the road. Makes it hard to go anywhere. I was hit by a tractor trailer that was turning and didn't see me next to him. I was in a tiny old Toyota and he dragged me about 20 feet before he stopped. In October of 2015 I fired my pain management practice because they just ticked me off...lol. I hated being on very strong pain medications and they wouldn't listen to me. I did get a new family doctor who sent me to a new rheumy not that it did any good. Basically I found out I have diabetes, HBP, high cholesterol, and not much is doing any good for me. All doctor's have told me the only thing that may possibly help me is to have gastric bypass.
