They say it’s a slow, horrible way to die.<\/p>\n

This morning my father suggested I seriously consider finding a group home to live in, as he will shortly be discontinuing his aid.<\/p>\n

A group home<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The entire point<\/em> of bothering to have the fucking foot sawed off rather than let it fucking kill <\/em>me was to eventually regain my autonomy, my privacy, my dignity. To suggest I now give these things up indefinately….<\/p>\n

I cannot express the depths of my horror, my revulsion. My despair.<\/p>\n

Why fucking bother<\/strong>? It would be better to be shot like a lame horse. I cannot see the point in an exitance deprived of the things I value most.<\/p>\n

My expenses are about 2K monthly. Things are great as far as Heavy Metal goes, but I have no idea yet how much they pay, and this has not turned into a career, just an opportunity. Teaching and lecturing makes me a couple of hundred a month, but it’s not steady or even dependable. I have no idea<\/em> how I can make that nut on a monthly basis.<\/p>\n

I’m reacting hard right now, gutshot. I feel like a wounded animal,\u00a0 I’ve already gnawed off a leg to survuive, but now it does not seem like I should have gone to the trouble. A group home<\/strong>. No autonomy, no privacy, no dignity, no point<\/em>. I’m sure I’ll be more rational about this later, but I’m not there yet.<\/p>\n

Fuck.<\/strong> I don’t know what to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
