In general, I use people first language when I can, but there are times where I will use other terms. For example, I just finished an article where I used the term "Blind artist" instead of person with visual challenges/ person who is blind / legally blind. It is what it is and that's what the person was comfortable describing herself as.

For me, I call myself an autistic person because the features described by autism (especially the particular subtype I have, unfortunately named pathological demand avoidance) are also central features to my identity.

How exciting! Does she have her school supplies yet? Of all the weird parenting things to look forward to-I can't wait to go school supply shopping (for my as of yet non-existent children)!?! You have some busy weeks ahead for sure...I hope Sweetie takes her friends' move ok...that would be hard:-( Hope you get a nice new set of neighbors too.

Maybe you have to different the good pain, better pain, balance pain, and bad pain that in different scale with the time wave in day and different situations and positions.

Yes, you are all so right! This is really very cool that I can feel now. It's just - different - to have this sensation I've never had before. :)

Hi Sweetie's Mom, Tell us how you really feel! LOL It sounds like a double edged sword to me, but do you really want the "progress" to stop in order to avoid some pain? I wouldn't. More joy is wished for you. Ciao, Carol

I started looking into sound therapy and found it very interesting. So I decided recently to try it to help with some numbness I have left in my leg from surgery. It has been amazing what changes I am still seeing from my first visit last thursday. I can totally understand being happier not to know the pain but life is all about balance so I pray you and work thru to the other side of feeling with little to no pain at all!

Hi S.M. I have to say it's pretty darn awesome! In fact it's a miracle! I have MS and a few years back I had a relapse that left me totally numb and paralyzed below the waist. I thought, that's it, I'll never walk again. Several months later I went in to remission and I was walking again. I had some feelings in my legs again too. I was one happy camper! Me, I'll take the pain any day. In fact I'm grateful for the pain. The pain is from nerve regeneration. Nerves are re growing. For you, after all of these years? That's pretty miraculous!!!!! Maybe you can do what I do. Embrace the pain. Sort of like when I gave birth. It hurt like H- -, but the reward was worth it! Do you know how rare your situation is???!!!!!! WOW!!! bblessed, pambe

Re: Heeeeeyyy, Yoga!

bonniethesurvivor — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 00:51:54 GMT

I hate to be a wet blanket on this, but I would consider yoga to be extremely dangerous for someone with your illness unless taught by a true yoga master, of which there are truly very few. Before becoming disabled, I taught yoga for over 20 years, and no matter what your yoga "studio" says, there are multiple forms of yoga, and very, very few people are adequately trained to teach even able bodied people. I tried to locate a thread we had here some months ago, where I advocated against using pre-recorded classes, saying, at the least, a teacher was necessary. But that was for conditions like fibro, and amputees. For you, I think you are putting yourself in danger. And, I hate to say it, but I don't think the teacher will tell you, because he/she probably wants the student. PM me if you want to discuss this further. It would probably be fine for your husband. Sorry, but that's one opinion. bonnie

Thank you, I will check it out. Although I felt I was very specific with my questions for the agent - asking about any riders that would exclude care for me in re: to my SB. He assured me that, no, I'd be covered for everything right from the start. But - yes - I'm checking the fine print on my own anyway. :)
