I've had this leg injury for 3 months now and its not getting better. its in my sciatic nerve in my right leg and it'll flare up horrifically and it makes it a bitch to walk and sometimes i have to lean against the walls at school to get to my classes while kids stare at me and whisper. i bring this up to my mom, telling her the stretches are not working and that i may need a cane even if its just for a little while. I'm not talking about getting an EXPENSIVE cane either, just like a 5 dollar one or hell, even a widdled stick!
You know what she says??? "You're a bit young for a cane! :-) Its not like you're disabled! :-) Just keep stretching! :-) You shouldn't feel like you're 70! You're 17! :-)"
well the pain is disabling to the point i have to drastically slow down to get to my classes.
but my friends actually care. My friend's dad is gonna let me use one of his old canes he doesn't need anymore and if it works, i get to keep it, and if it doesn't, i can give it back.
Ain't that some shit? Some man i never met in my life cares more about the pain i'm in than my own mother.
