The temporary gofundme link is embarrassing, but I’m having major medical problems and need to see a specific specialist who doesn’t take insurance.

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Put me with a bunch of my old clothes, music, and a microphone, and I’m a happy person. I put two versions of the mashup-things. Couldn’t choose which one I prefer.

Also, you can tell my hip is partially out of socket. I didn’t realize it was so visible until I saw the photos. The left one..my pant leg lengths are different. It hurts a bit, but it will (should) resolve. Always does.

Oh and I guess Pantone loves me and a third of my closet(s).

Well this is mortifyingly embarrassing but I have to swallow my pride because I’m physically crashing out. Tried to make the post look less like a “help me,” but that is what it is. My best friend @nicojohn is being sweet (she’s always sweet) and set it up. I currently have almost 50 specialists who are basically throwing their hands in the air and deferring to what is essentially palliative care. Last year, I was referred to a specialist in Rhode Island who deals with complex cases like mine (Dr. Pradeep Chopra, The Center for Complex Conditions Expert care for CRPS, EDS, & Complex Chronic Pain Conditions). He is expensive (5 hour evaluations), so I have not seen him. He doesn’t take Medicare. He gets over 150 emails a day from patients trying to see him. This week I emailed him and he chose to see me and even had a cancellation on October 28th (very soon) so I don’t have to wait months/years. I haven’t publicized this, but I had another stroke-like finding on a brain scan recently and things are very shaky and disturbing for me. I woke up without vision in one eye yesterday. I do have someone who can drive me there and back, but I have no way to pay for the evaluation and treatment. I’m letting go and letting the Universe handle this.

[The link is in my bio with more information. The goal is $5k, eval is $3k plus follow-up. I know finances are shaky for a lot of people these days, so if you can’t donate, pray or something. Love you guys. Thank you.] by @smsowell

Not feeling like writing a caption at the moment. Here’s a barrage of random stuff from this week, including the wearing of a lampshade. Yeah idk. 🐋🌿 by @smsowell

Wasn’t going to post this, but after I asked, I was told that I’m “too unique to look like a tramp,” so here you go—just me with no makeup in a partially-finished lampshade shirt thing with my lovely medical compression. Everyone knows I’m an oddball nun with circulation issues. Or 5% Prince. 💅🏼

Thank you, @jobst_usa for keeping me standing upright. by @smsowell

I lost my little boy two years ago today... it’s been pretty rough without him, but I know he is free and no longer in his tired body. Ollie always wore his birthday crowns out here on the balcony (his birthday was 8/15/2007), so I thought this was fitting for today. And that’s one of his favorite toys.

I’m not sure if I’m finished with the helmet-looking thing (probably not, but we’ll see). I think it’s pretty. And yes, I’ve been crying a bit.😖 by @smsowell

Yeah, I’m a clinical psychologist with very old books in towers of very cheap boxes. Margot looks regal up there. by @smsowell
