Bill

You get better, I'm not letting you off the hook about coming to Laurel
when you do. They built a nice place on the 1st floor with tv's and can
sit and have lunch there.I heard from a member named Gene who would
also like to join we could could have a mini Pace and Cap gathering lunch
on me

Tell Dad hi and he is always welcome

Thank you again to all my friends old and new

I have a confession. I spent one night on suicide watch this week
I almost overdosed on pain pills and sleeping pills. Luckily I had dialysis
treatment and they caught my depression, so they put me in the hospital.

I am still shaken The good news is now Brooks, my dad and my sister have to hide and distribute the meds to me. They must not let me open and have access to the bottles

My case manager has arranged with a psychiatrist that takes my insurance
So I will be going to therapy

I know I can beat this tough time THANK YOU You people are all in my prayers

Ted Craven · 11-23-2019, 07:26 PM

Bill, you know you can call me anytime day or night - you have my phone number and I hope you will consider using it ANY time you need to talk about anything.

You mean so much to so many people, not the least to me. You are the 'heart' behind this community despite that your own heart (and kidneys) may sometimes be weak. You have helped me make my livelihood in horse racing, and I am eternally grateful for that, among other things.

Besides prayers and best wishes, let me know whatever big or little thing I can do. Breeanne would approve (and so would your family)!

Your friend, Ted

I'm sorry to hear about your Moment but rest assured you still have the strength to move forward.Thank you again for reaching out to your community.

Great news Bill. You are on the list for a kidney. It is important to keep that foremost in your mind so that you will be physically and emotionally ready for this momentous occasion. I know that there are days when you feel lousy and it sure is hard to keep your spirits up. Give yourself permission to feel bad and to tell yourself it’s ok to rest, lean back and enjoy TV, a book, or a movie. Is that hard to do? Yes! Do I take my own advice? Sometimes yes sometimes no. We all appreciate so much you have done for us and the sacrifices in time in you have made to keep the board going. Take all that positive energy that everyone is sending you draw it to you and let it help you through your struggle. Chin up and carry on!

I will beat this. I have heard from my case manager, She came to my house.
She wanted me to do a walkthrough of my typical day.
She noted that one of the things I like to do that she was unaware of, Is to
work outside around the house and tend to my garden.
I also showed here the small backyard that was wildly overgrown with weeds
I have been working on it for a few months when I fell strong enough.
I will spend more time out there. I have many books I have never started
I will set up my chair and spend lots of time meditating and reading back there

Bill V. · 11-24-2019, 02:16 PM

Hello Jeff

I also have gone back to Phase 1. Not so much that it is the best way,
RX3, VDC, CR+, and CSR is a much better method. RMath has a very nice method that he taught me at Saratoga

I will be picking my lines from Phase 1 only because it's so joyful and I don't have any money to bet too much
