Janis,

JK>>I can't bend over to pick anything up without nearly passing out.

JK>You need something to grab things with... IIRC, I've seen such contraptions.
JK>I'll have to look again for it.

  There's a thing that I call "The Reacher"...I use it myself. I think I
got mine at Walgreens...but you can order it through the Dr. Leonard,
Carol Wright, or other catalogs.

JK>Ok that's what you have to look at.. Take things one day at a time.  Let you
JK>body heal.  Don't overdo..

  You have to know your limits. When I had to resign my job of
silkscreen printing in 2004, and file for disability, I had to face the
fact that "my body won't let me do it anymore". I've seen people at
square dance festivals "overdo it", and the paramedics had to be called.

  When I'm at the computer, and start to get fatigued, it's time to go
take a nap. Usually a 60 or 90 minute siesta does me a world of good.

Daryl
