Kilauea episode 15
The first pic. March 15 at night.The second is March 16 in the afternoon, lava fountains were 1000 ft high. The air was bad. I got pelted with fine volcanic rock. The last picture is Pele's hair, which is fine volcanic glass, & it looked a little like snow was falling.

I attended Georgetown until developing a painful nerve disease, I may not have graduated from there, but I am so proud I was able to attend such a great school.

I have a rare disease that has had little research. Now, it never will be.

And then what? Do we all move in with our kuds? Or live on the streets?

I'm also a former nurse, struck down by a painful, chronic nerve disorder that isn't curable. I tried so hard to stay working.

If we ignore it, maybe she will just go away. She wants the attention.

Every day. Some days it isn't as severe, but they are few. I now added heart problems to the list. Medicare helps me get needed medical care. I am scared, there isn't much I can do, I can't fight, I have trouble being able to even care for my home. I am the type of person this regime wants dead.

It took over 3 years and multiple times of applying & a lawyer to get Social Security Disability. I would really rather be working at the career I loved. The $ helps make sure I have a home, it is significantly less than what I could earn. There is no cure, I am in pain every day, I feel sick...

Not fit the narrow areas they were obligated to help accommodate me. All I wanted was a chance to continue working away from the bedside, to see if I could keep going. I ended up with no other option than disability. My 28.5+ year career was gone. My sense of self was shredded. I felt defeated.

Such horrible pain. I understood why so many with this disorder choose not to live. My nurse manager was as helpful as she could be, & hospital HR was not. I couldn't give the same level of care I prided myself on, & HR said they wouldn't help me find a place I could work because my diagnosis did

I didn't have time off to be able to go get treatment, so I worked my 3 12-hour shifts before I went to the ER. At first, they had no idea what was wrong. It took months for a diagnosis, multiple doctors, and a lot of medical gaslighting. Nothing helped. I tried so hard to keep working. I was in...

In Sept of 2018, I went to work as a NICU nurse feeling okay, just a bit of a weird headache. By the end of the day, my life had changed, & I had developed a painful nerve disorder. I have bilateral occipital & trigeminal neuralgia & feel like I have a viral infection all the time.

That's why a bunch of people are calling his son Kevlar.

It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. After all there were "good people on both sides" in Charlottesville.

I don't want the U.S. to consume Canada. Even though I am in the U.S. I hope Canada stays united and gives the U.S. a black eye. Boycott any products from the U.S. and boycott travel here. Please!

Apparently, even though I worked at social security tax paying jobs from the age of 13 until I developed a nerve disease at age 51, I am one of those "parasites."

I'm considering going back to my maiden name just because of this.

There also need to be incentives for healthcare providers at all levels to go and live in underserved areas. For anything beyond basic care, people here have to fly to another island, if you can even get in to a provider.

How do I completely get rid of Google on my phone since it is hardwritten into the hardware? I'm not terribly knowledgeable on how to do this.
