Jackie, you are not alone, even tho at times it sure feels like it. You need to get plugged into your community. That requires some help.
I was going to do voluteer work.(part-time) Found out today that I have 2 bulging discs..with one herniated.in my lower lumbar area of the back..So that is definitely out. Very down about it...but I refuse to be counted out. Jackie..refuse to be counted out in life...starting with your community. Try calling a church or your local humane society, or look in the paper...especially the Sunday newspapers. Everyone is screaming for volunteers. Ask if they can work around your schedule. Ask, ask, ask. You can do it! Release yourself!
