The Walking Wounded

I'm having lot of trouble with arthritis. I finally made an appointment with the doctor at the VA hospital. I'm going to my daughter's wedding in Washington state near the end of August, and I'd like to be moving around better by then. The medical appointment I have is only a couple of days before our departure date. I can hardly use my hands presently. It's a real inconvenience, but on the mundane level I'm just in pain 24/7. I don't get much sleep at night because when I roll over the pain can be excruciating. Maybe, if my hands get better, I'll write more.
