I'm unfortunately at Laurel Brook Rehab in Mt Laurel. Waiting over TWO hours so far for a CNA (?) and I'm tired of being quiet about it. I called front desk to no avail. Please feel free to call 856 751 3500. This is unhealthy and abusive. Call tomorrow, too. Disgusting.

For a friend…..

We need prayer…Kinda don't wanna do this cause I'm scared it's gonna hurt my feelings but here it goes ...If you classify yourself as my true friend, or a true family member or Who's in, and has a moment?
Our Father, who art in Heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
forever and ever.
Amen.

if you get into a committed relationship with someone that has chronic health issues please please please understand that that person may not be able to do anything for themselves for weeks to months at a time and a large burden is going to fall on you. Take the time to make sure you're able to handle it before you commit.
I didnt ask for my body to fail.
My favorite quote from my doctor was, “it can’t really be that bad if you are still working and doing everything you do. “ I told him I didn’t know I had a choice. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Years in pain, tired and the many changes in me for no reason or apparent reason ... Hiding everything from someone else, pretending to be doing better than you are; until it no longer works. No matter how strong you want to be.

Then the moment comes when they tell you what you have ... You have mixed feelings: you finally know what you have, but how do you deal with it?
Lack of encouragement, wanting to lie down, taking medication frequently; having a whole pharmacy on top of the nightstand.

Then, the daily responses, "Why did you get so fat?" “I have this great diet, if you just go out and exercised.
That once beautiful hair of yours now awful and it falls out.
What happened to you??....
This is all true and that's why I'm sharing it!

Silent and invisible diseases do exist ...
When you have an invisible disease it is difficult to argue from your perspective with ignorant people.
Life takes a lot of turns !!!

Tired of being told:
* Did you go to the doctor?
* Have you tried this?
* Have you tried that?
* I don’t know what else we can do for you...

Yes! I tried and still try everything !!!
Doctors say this disease is forever. That I will not heal. However, I am not giving up, but I want to make others realize:
* A nap will not cure me but it will help me ...
* I am not lazy, I take medication and it sometimes makes me sleepy.
* I am not angry but sometimes cranky with pain.
* I struggle daily with pain, mobility problems, fatigue, the criticism of my environment.

Most frustratingly, people look at me and say, "It can't be that bad; you look good "
Despite the fact that my body is experiencing excruciating pain everywhere, of course I look good, I always try to look good, it is an "invisible" disease.

This disease affects me physically, mentally and emotionally. Because rare autoimmune diseases cannot be seen, but we feel them.

And they are there ... Silent attack but extra painful.

I AM LOOKING AT THOSE WHO TAKE TIME TO READ THIS POST TO THE END.

A quick lesson about autoimmune diseases. It takes an average of 3 years and 5 doctors for a person to get a proper diagnosis of an autoimmune disease. I just wish more people understood what an autoimmune disease is. It is not a cold or the flu, you will never get better, and even a nap will not help. Just eating a salad and hitting the gym won’t slim your face or get the pounds off. Sleeping 10 hours doesn’t leave you well rested, ever. Last minute changes in plans because that “just got ran over” feeling never makes appointments, just walks in whenever you aren’t ready. Achy joints and bones, dry skin, breaking hair, mood swings, and depression are just the tip of the iceberg. You are also prone to having multiple autoimmune diseases.
The “put together on the outside”, rarely matches the raging battle on the inside.
I am watching the ones who will take the time to read this entire post and react.
Please, in honor of someone who is fighting POTS, MCAD, Sjogren's, Scleroderma, Hashimoto Disease, Hypothyroidism, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Fibromyalgia, Lupus, Sarcoidosis, CVID, RSDS, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Hepatitis, Raynauld's Syndrome, Diabetes, Mold Illness, Celiac, Crohn’s, Ulcerative Colitis, Pemphigus, Neuropathy, SPS, MS, PBC, Psoriatic Arthritis, CIDP, Behcet's, Alopecia, MMN And GPA .Copy and paste to your page and reply "DONE" on mine.
Unfortunately, most of us know someone fighting against one or more Autoimmune Diseases. 🙏🏻 ❤️💙💚💜Thank you!

Charlie Brown was left on the VAO’s doorstep with a note from his owners saying they could no longer care for him. And we are going to do our best to help Charlie Brown find a forever home. This beautiful boy is a gem! He enjoys curling up in his little cave bed. And when you pay him a visit, he pops out and says hello and is ready to be loved. If you believe in second chances like we do, please stop by the VAO today and give Charlie Brown a chance. We think you will love him as much as we do!🧡

My mom posted TwoDay that it is a year that she got another baby cat. It kinda hurts me and I know it hurts my mommy bc she is the most emotional woman on earth... but Sunni saved her life ! I knew she would get another baby especially after she lost SO MANY of us within only like 5 years. ... she was so lucky to get Sunni and make her happy again.
Sunni I’m watching you! Be nice to my Mommy. I see you have scratched My Daddy a few times and I kinda liked it. 😂
But he loves cats.
Mommy isn’t having a real happy day today bc I think she is thinking about me and she feels guilty.
Don’t mommy! No matter what else you are upset about in life... and lately that’s unending... don’t feel bad.. you didn’t replace me. You pet my fur every day (mostly mom hmmm) and say hi to me and Randi’s ashes. You were the best mom.
I’m jealous of Sunni bc I miss being with you. But she loves you.
I’m always here with you if you look and I’ll always in your heart...
til we meet again but love you and my sister Sunni Lyn
Miss you mommy! Stop crying! We will meet again at the Bridge. 🙏🏻🥰💐🌈

PLEASE READ IN ITS ENTIRETY AND SHARE!
Every time I read this I cry...and I cry even more because Christie has been trying so very hard to get someone to love her...and still she keeps getting passed over. Isn’t there someone out there who wants to be Christie’s happily ever after??? 😿💕😻
Hi Everyone, my name is Christie and I’m one of the Awesome Adoptables here at Jersey State Animal Rescue. I am a 5 year old Tortie girl and I’ve been here since 2017…wow, it’s been 3 years already, but it’s a gazillion times better than being homeless in Camden where I was found! When I first came to the rescue I was nervous and I didn’t want to make friends with the other cats…until Wendi arrived. Wendi wasn’t nervous at all and she made friends with everyone…I was in awe of her. Wendi always took the time to hang out with me and she gradually helped ease my nerves and anxiety about the other cats. We became fast friends…I called her my BFF and we were always together in the cat tree watching the birds in the yard. We were so close that Linda thought we should be adopted together…but the cat gods had other plans. One day a lady came to meet all of us Awesome Adoptables and Wendi went over to greet her. I think I was jealous of the lady for paying attention to my BFF and so I stayed away. The lady fell in love with Wendi, but didn’t fall in love with me…I take full responsibility for that because had I known that maybe if I had been nicer...maybe, just maybe she would have fallen in love with me too. Wendi was very very sad to be leaving me, but I finally realized that “if you love someone, set them free”…and I told my best friend that she should go to her furever home with her new mommy…because that’s what being rescued is all about…and I would always remember her. Once Wendi left, I remembered everything she taught me about being friendly and sweet…and Linda said she was so proud of me for doing a complete turnaround! Now whenever potential adopters come to the rescue, I make sure to greet them with a smile on my face and a loud purr…and I even rub against their legs to try and get their attention…because that’s what Wendi did…and she found someone to love her. I’ve been doing this every time someone comes over…but I keep getting overlooked and I don’t know why. I know I’m not the prettiest cat here…and I know looks aren’t everything…but it’s usually what people see first…and I’m trying really really hard to not let it affect me because I don’t want to get anxious again. I’ve been praying to those cat gods every night that one day soon someone will walk in the door…and when I come up to them and purr and rub against their legs…that person will say, “I just fell in love with Christie and I want to take her home and make her mine!” I bet Wendi would be so happy!!! 😺💕😻
Please note: Christie’s adoption fee will be waived for an approved applicant. If you are interested in meeting Christie, please call Linda at: 856-753-9115.
