Mirage, thank you for your insights. I will check out your story.
S14 is back with me. He spent last night at W's place. W made Beef Wellington, twice baked potatoes, and cheesecake, and she said she said she "spoiled" s14 with this meal. I still feel pain when W offhandedly tells me things about her life with om - the meal was made for om.
I have a week of several doctor's appointments and tests. Tomorrow I have an MRI scheduled, along with an x-ray, and some lab tests.
They have pin-pointed the c8 of my spine as causing the continued loss of strength in my left arm. The burning in my legs is also caused by my spine, and the pain continues to grow, and so I am hoping they can also pinpoint the cause of this.
Tuesday d19 arrives in town. W called me and she was stressed out, saying she has "$5" to her name. She wanted child support so she can go out and have some fun together. One of the past month's child support was intercepted by the IRS, but for some reason the money was not given to W but put in "suspense". I don't know how to get the money released.
Thursday I see my lung doctor to find out what can be done about a lingering lung infection. So hopefully this is a good week for getting my health going in a better direction.
