An apology

I wrote a blog a few weeks ago which I deleted asking people to help me set up a school for blind girls in Africa. After thinking about it I felt ashamed to ask someone to help me. All my life I have shunned help from others except from my family. So I don't want to share the triumph which shall be mine and my family in Africa. Changing the world one blind person at a time. Savoring each and everyone in my new family of blind women. AS I focused on the task ideas came flooding in and i can conservatively say I could keep a patent attorney busy for the rest of his life. Topics like teaching blind people to see colors. I remember my metaphysics class at Cornell University where we built a world out of color patches. Teaching blind girls how to run. Self defense for blind girls. Teaching blind girls how to program. And so on. And I am sorry I don't want to share that so keep ur money. And when the world needs me I will be there with my African family to save you all. Namaste

Going to Heaven

ok now you are saying i am going to get all religious on u but you are wrong. I recently watched a video by a professor on stem cells it seems if we put stem cells in different environment they produce different type of cells. Which means if we have an environment like heaven then we are in heaven. For me Africa is heaven. The climate is perfect no snow, no hurricanes, friendly people, lots of kids not old and helpless. Do you know what it is like having children want to touch you. I passed a school in Kisumu at closing and I am sure I shook hands with 50 children. Everywhere children saying "how are you?" And there smiles always warming my heart. That is heaven.

WHEN MEDICINE FAILS

Hello fellow grasshoppers. I never thought i would be in a position I am in now. But sadly I am. I went to my Dr. as I have an infected toe she prescribe medicine for the toe and f0r a ring worm infection. And also an appointment for a podiatrist. I have been doing well and have $125.00 in the bank so happily i run down to Walmart and give them the prescription well i almost fell over it was $87.00 and the cost of a specialist on my plan was $35.00 my car was reading empty so another $10.00 a total of $133.00 so what do I do? like a lot of elderly I compromise I refuse the prescription and ignore the specialist. Now my Dr is probably most mad a me but what can I do? Id rather eat than have a well toe. After my ssi check comes I will reevaluate in 14 days. I almost cried as a woman behind me offered to pay half of my prescription i thanked her but refused.I can't bend over to change the bandage so if my son were not here i would be unable to change bandage. Now when in Kenya I went to pharmisist she gave me an antibiotic for $1.00 and that got me by until returning to usa. Now if I had to go to emergency room the cost would be zero. you buy a small book for $1.00 and pay for your medicine. My insulin cost $28.00 at Walmart in Kenya $15.00 and my furosimide ten cents a pill. So what is my solution if it gets bad i go to emergency room $65.00 and eat.  Of course the people in USA are considered so stupid that they can't figure out what to do so we have laws to protect us so we don't hurt ourselves by taking medicine. Go figure. At some point our society will grid lock as so many lawsuits will prohibit us from going to a dr. Hey Mr. Romney where is my safety net?
