Please take this as just an expression of concern from another VW enthusiast...

There is mounting evidence that addictive tendencies may be genetic. I am NOT saying that you will get addicted all I am suggesting is that you might be more likely due to your genetics. So some extra caution may be warranted. Talk to your doctor about your family history and do not take pain meds from your primary care doc.
Lots of alternatives out there like acupuncture, meditation and even yoga. |

well.. I was praying I would get disability as I have so many things wrong with me .. its not that I can not do things.. its WHEN my body allows me due to the amount of pain.. in feet.. ankles.. legs.. lower back neck.. massive fatigue and insomnia ... 3 sever pinched nerves.. 2 in neck one in lower back.. but I do keep trying to make something of myself and survive.. It was the insurance from disability i was praying for so I could get some of these things fixed.. but o well .. its on appeal.. ok so enough of the pity party.. lol
So.. here is a short vid of the 3d printer i made... feel free to comment on it....

I've heard it is worth the money to hire a disability lawyer to help you file for SSI disability.

I have one.. free one ... I have literally been fuked up since around feb 2006 when I have a near death experience violent reaction to bactrim.. everything changed that day..
I get a free one because.. I am also a 30 year survivor of hiv... yep.. you read that right.. |

| Friend of mine filed for SS disability he had to hire the attorney and it still took over two years. I remember him telling me everyone gets denied first time around. Once it started he was paid back to when he applied minus legal fees but what a shame they make it so hard on people to obtain benefits from something they’ve paid into all their lives. |

sad part is.. I just want to get FIXED.. and then go back to makein money and not worry about breaking down.. i feel like a robot with screwed up parts and some idiot on a throne is deciding who get new parts who gets used and who gets shit... .
my main issue.. dependability .. who is going to hire someone in my condition ... i would not hire myself.. period.. but.. I do try..to make what i can with my mind and hands daily |
