 in response to daisydu...   Wow,
You have been through alot.
Do you have migraines?
Its very frustrating not being able to find a doctor who can cure us or at least do a good job of treating us.
I hope you find a doctor who can treat you & give you a better quality of life.
I'm not saying you don't have a good quality already, but in nursing we were taught that terminalogy of wording. We just basic want people life to be well & free of pain or at least as much as possible.

I think you are a very strong person. Alot of people couldn't endure what all you have been through & maintain such a lovely attitude in life.

Well, I will go for now. Its late, so I will try to get some sleep if I can.

Have a great day.

 in response to ekikaseven...   yes you may....i take pride of how God made me and how i am....i was born with a cranial facial disorder....that is what the doctor's called it....really they didn't know what it was....back in the 70's they didn't know what to call it....so they named it....tried experimental surgery...it was always....mrs. shavers we will try this and if that don't work we will try that the next time.....

i was born on an army base in hiddleburgh germany....they used forcepts on me to pull me out of my mother's womb....i am talking to mama now.....on the phone....she told me that the doctor told her that, that side of my face could have rested on her pelvus and could have stopped the circulation of blood and it didn't get fully developed....and with a baby's tendar age their face and skull is still soft....meaning the forcepts didn't help much....i have a hemangioma tumor that was above my right eye....wrapped around my jaw bone and muscles...i also have hemangioma tumor on my brain....i have calcifications on my brain where several tumors come and gone....and for those who don't know what a hemangioma tumor is....it is a large mass of bloodvessells that grow fast and come and go.....that is what i was told....

i don't want anyone feeling sorry for me....not that i am saying anyone is....i am a normal person like everyone else....just have difficulties....i had many reconstructive serguries....one they took bone out of my left hip... and placed the bone above my eye...then they broke my jaw in three places....that was suppose to straighten my jaw...didn't work....the next surgery....they rerouted my jaw muscles and i wore a tape on my face....it was suppose to lift that side of my face so it wouldn't have the saggyness...and they said they worked on my nerves to make me be able to smile on that side of my face....well....in my baby pictures i was smiling on that side....that side of my face looked normal....the only thing that even looked to me is that it was lower than my left side....i have theories of what could have happened and what could have happened and what it would have turned out....

for a while i was upset....and thought the doctors messed me up worse....but what they explained was when i grew up....i would change....and that i did....but there is so many things ....other things...to worry about.....like life....really i don't care what people say about me...unless i am just in that depressed mood....i am seeking a doctor...that will help me if they can.....but i don't know...i am scared because with the hemangioma tumor behind my eye and my jaw....well i don't have to say no more....

everyone have a blessed night....and thanks for asking....yall take care

 in response to daisydu...   Hi 'daisydu',

I am very proud of you for standing up for yourself.
I'm glad you made her post public.
You are absolutely right,there is really no difference in people. No matter what the race people are just 'people'.

I'm so sorry that you had to suffer abuse from other people.
I don't like for people to suffer abuse especially for something they can't help. God made each of us the way He wanted us to be. No one should be tormented because of that.

May I ask what type of birth defect do you have?
Not trying to be nosey, I'm curious. Its just the 'nurse' in me.

Hope you have a great evening.

 in response to dogeatdog...   I do not condone what she said, the nigger comment really brings her massage to you to an entirely different level. However, I believe we have all done things in our life we regret. Let's not pass judgements like calling her man a lazy ass, calling her a lowlife, a bully, or questioning her mental status. If she were to apologize and do it with the right heart, we should accept it. If she chooses not to apologize seek comfort in the proverb I posted below. She will be judged just as the rest of us will when the time comes.

God bless

He who corrects an arrogant man earns insult; and he who reproves a wicked man incurs opprobrium. Reprove not an arrogant man, let he hate you; reprove a wise man, and he will love you. Instruct a wise man, and he becomes still wiser; teach a just man, and he advances in learning.

 in response to ekikaseven...   i understand what you are saying ekikaseven.....i didn't do this out of anger....i did that to try to show her she just can't do that on this sight....i like this sight because it has real people with real problems.....people that can get together and talk about each other's pains, do's and don't's...i do feel sorry for her....not because she says she is without....i feel sorry for the mental part of it all....there has to be a reason why she feels it is necessary to call people names and bring others down....like a bully....you know i will be honest with you about something....at first i brought myself down to her level and cussed her back and did the name calling....then i read it twice....i asked myself....is this the way you really want to be? then i deleted it....and i decided to post it publically....for the black people i am sorry you had to see that....i want you guys to know there is no such thing as a "nigger" it is african american.....i love all colors of people and there isn't no difference in us all....we share the same god....pain.....feelings....love....children....life on this earth should be no less or no more than the other....i wish everyone would get along....we are all humans and for years people has fought each other on which race is better....no one is better than the other.....god made us....and we are all his children....
people like that it does no good to try to understand them....nothing can change her way of thinking...but we know that god can....

in the post that i posted her...i simply told her that there are more people on this sight that need food shelter and lights gas water....i said there are people that are in worse shape than she is just be thankful for what she has....if you can't see the post that i responded to....let me know i will gladly post what i said to her....she thinks i was telling her that she doesn't want to work....but i never mentioned anything like that....

you know ekikaseven....i lived all my life scared to stand up for myself....and i lived a very hard life because of my birthdefect....i let people run over me all the time....and while being married to an abusive husband....i lowered myself down to everyone else's level who cursed me.....not no more....i left that life behind....and it is going to stay behind....well i have to go and find something to cook....lol i don't need any negative around me.....so i blocked her one on one....so if she wants to say anything to me....she is got to make it public....and if she sends me an email....then i will just do a copy and paste again....i am not sorry i did that....we want to keep this sight clean....for real people....not for abuse....we deal with people like that enough in everyday life....this sight should be for ones that talk to others to relieve stress....not to stay stressed....you know like a get away from it all....take care ekikaseven and talk to ya later

 in response to daisydu...   Thank you so much for sharing this.
Its good to see how people really are.
There was no need for her to call you any 'names' or use profanity.

And,why would she call anyone the 'N' word???
I just don't understand. I wonder if she is doing that meaning to degrade someone?
There are alot of people that she is calling 'N's -that are very successful, have great careers, have money, have nice homes, educated & have loving families.
And trust me, none would 'change places' with her or would desire to have 'her life'.

Like I said, I just don't understand.
If her 'race or color' gives her some ADVANTAGE over another, then perhaps she could 'use' it instead of being on Aidpage begging for help.

I am still looking for help with christmas. I know there are a lot of people out there with out work, income and hope but there is always hope.. I don't like begging or asking for help. but I have no place to turn. To be honest my 6 yr old daughter has a different father than my 2 yr old. The hardest thing to admit is that she has no family on her father's side literally. I am desperate as many people are. I am even trying my best to start my own little out of home business doing massages just to earn a little cash. Please anyone out there mind helping my two little girls for christmas?
