Finally Homeward Bound

I decided to review select specialty hospitals before I got discharged. It was an honest review, but not a very favorable one to them. Not long after the review it was time for me to be discharged and they tried to send me to Ohio although I live in West Virginia and I would never see my family had I went to that facility. A doctor is not the almighty; they are not infallible. Sometimes you have to be your own advocate and for me going to Ohio was a big no-no. My parents both passed away in Ohio even though it's where I was born and raised I cannot stand to be there at all. Especially because of finding my mother dead in the bed and did something that really affected my brain and I just associate Ohio with pain and suffering.

I would not see my family until I got out of there and I could be there for over a month. They're justification is that I have antibiotic IV but I have to take and finish a course of. They didn't like it when I reminded them the last time I was discharged from the h

Medical Update

I have severe late stage ankylosing spondylitis which has not been treated for over a year. The medications I need to treat it would hinder my healing from the four stage four bed sores that I have on my backside. I'll be honest with you, I'm scared to death! I'm waiting on the doctor to confirm what I already know. My eyes feel like they have sand in them, they are burning, and it's very painful to be exposed to any light. Please say a little prayer for me and my recovery it would really help me out a lot. I'm really in a mess. January 23rd I was involved in the ATV accident, I was traveling at a high rate of speed on the blacktop. I hit a patch of gravel and wiped out rolling The ATV. Originally I had my back broken in three places, on my ribs broken but one, my left foot broken into places and my left shoulder broken into places. Additionally; I had three brain bleeds, a kidney bleed and a pancreas breed. I was in the hospital for 3 months with no issues and I we
