Tom

This use to be my Tom!!!!  Working all the time!!!  He was always doing something!!! Bless his heart he hurt himself 4 months ago now and he is not well from that injury but worse!!!!!!  Last week-end he was so bad he couldn't do a thing!!!!  Look at that beautiful healthy arm up there in that picture.
That arm now is not so pretty any more!!! He has been to a doctor and the doctor has said that he has to stop working for months and let it heal!!!  He can't stop working!!!! If he stops working there would be no income ---only a lots of expenses!!! We live from hand to mouth......  Our savings all went for Tom's surgery 2 years ago.  Business hasn't been good enough to get any more saved up.
Business hasn't been to bad lately.  Tom is working on a big job now.  Tom is having a hard time doing his work b/c his arm and hand and shoulder on his right is hurting so badly.  I feel so sorry for him but there is nothing I can do to help him!!!
Thanks for all your good wishes for Tom getting better-----but he isn't getting better, he is getting worse!!!
We need a wind fall of money so he can stop working and heal!!!  Maybe someone will come by and want to give us a bunch of money for this land we are on!!!!!  It could happen!!!!

Love coming your way,  Tom and Fern

  3. I'm not sure what to say. Good thoughts will only do so much good. Does Tom have a friend, a fellow mechanic who could help Tom out? He must have some friends who'll help. We're thinking...

  4. Dear Fern, a windfall would be lovely but in cAse that doesn't happen, I'm sending you some get well wishes :)

    I know how hard it can be because Cushion hurt his neck on the job almost 10 years ago, was bedridden for a few months, unable to do his job properly after that, and still can't even push the supermarket trolley without it flaring up. I really hope Tom gets better soon. Big hugs X

  6. What lovely pictures of Tom. If you are selling some of your land, I hope you get a buyer. In the meantime, I hope that Tom can get some rest. Such a tough time for you all right now.

  9. Hi Fern,

    I'm so sorry about Tom's injured arm. It's so scary living week to week trying to survive. Can't you guys get Medicare or something?? There has got to be some assistance somewhere for you!
