Well here I am again sitting around being bored and waiting. I just can't
stand this no more and I'm not gonna be able to handle it much longer.
Right now my legs are sore and I have no idea why they are. And anything
that touches them makes them feel real weird. And now I'm starting to
wonder about the way I could raise my leg because I could only do it when I
sit back and my chair and really try hard other wise I can't do it and
once I bring it up the tone kicks in and It takes a good ten seconds for it
to come down. I just hate sitting around and waiting for things to happen.
And if I can't walk I don't know what I'll do. I pray all the time but it
hasn't came the way I wanted it to yet and I can't take it . You see befor
this happened I was a wery active person allways on my feet and always
running around and I can't do that no more. And I just don't know how much
longer I can hang on. I just need some hope
