I’m Weakening Because….

by Valerie ()

My mom passed away September 26th, 2023 in the ICU hospital. I’m in agonizing pain.
I’m getting little to no support e.g. I’m left alone in my apartment, I have a friend who is a few years younger than me, that friend has a grown daughter they live in a huge home but instead of inviting me over to stay at their home overnight they choose to keep their distance. Makes me sad, angry. I want to move from:
Florida were I currently live to: New Orleans where my mother has her few surviving relatives she came from a very large family. I also want to finish my college degree, volunteer, join a church.
I’m hoping that God willing, I will be able to do that. I am very ill.
Florida is not for me. I’ve been here almost one year (in a couple of weeks).
I’m not being treated very well since my mom passed either. I’m being talk at, instead of being compassionately talked to. E.G., told to: Make friends, find activities to do, go ride my bicycle, go take a walk with the neighbor & her dog. As if that will help with the pain of losing my mother!
I’m in a battlefield it would seem. I’m also at odds with the Veterans Administration for help with possibly getting me relocated to New Orleans LA.
But I was at odds with a government worker at the VA, where she called the Sheriff on me.
My crime? I asked for help but couldn’t articulate just what type of people in what dept that I wanted. I was polite, real courteous but at the same time I felt that the government VA worker was intimidating.
The government VA worker snapped at me, I said to her that I would hang up & that I give up.
And that was all I said. The VA is extremely bureaucratic & everything falls under one umbrella.
Today, was a 100% disaster!
I need miracles to happen..
