I have a really cool Navel baseball cap by a very cool relative that was a Navel Officer n now retired he gave me 1) ages ages ages ago I wore it so much I wore it out he then gave me another it is not wore out but I have retired it to hang on my wall 1 it is cool hat 2) proud of his serving us n wish I could have too 3) don't want it to wear out n 4) I have had a few people ask me if I was a disabled Veteran n I always tell no it was given to me by my relative who served... I have heard of some disabled people that are out there that lie to get praise or gifts n I Think That is Super Disgusting n Wrong!!! I still may be asked if I am a disabled veteran because so many service people are coming home disabled but I figured by not wear the cap it would reduce the question to me...
All Active/Retired Service Med/Women are Heroes for answering the call to serve their People(Wars Sux) n Disabled Veterans are Super Heroes for Serving n Surviving n Dealing with Going from able body to suddenly disabled which is a big hardship for many to deal with!!!
Being born with a disability I thought it was normal til I was around non-disabled then I knew I was different n Still Am by Choice LOL but growing up disabled is easier to learn to deal with the challenges n also helped me deal well with my stroke damage but Able Bodied people becoming suddenly Disabled is a Challenge They have hard times with Emotionally n Physically So, Hat is off n Hanging in Honor of my Mike C. n all the service men n women or n the dog's that also serve our country!!!

Hey :-)
Hello :-)
Hope you are doing well/better...
The pulled muscle ion my right side is pretty much healed still feel where the pain area was that got pulled but it there is No pain or Discomfort...
My lower back is having a very minor issue but just woke up so I will take a few Tylenols n think that should handle thee issue with no problem :-) if it still gives me issues I will rub on some Rx pain cream since I believe it is muscle that are being a pain not any bones...
I feel good n Happy emotionally, n good body wise(minus what I wrote above which is very minor n not effecting my happiness) so even though I wish for a few items to make my life easier n a few items I want because they would be cool to have I really can't be upset with my life...
I Am Alive, I Am Relatively Pain Free, I Can Take Care of Myself(as long as wheelchair is running), I Have a Cool Apartment, My Apartment is In a Good Location Stores, Restaurants, Bayside West Bradenton Campus nearby, My Doctor n Counselor are within Wheelchair's Battery Range, I have Made Many Friends Locally(thanks to Bayside Community Church) n I have All the Friends I Have Made on FaceBook(which was/is a Big Gift for Me Since I Don't Travel Since 2009 basically after Stroke n after moving to Florida just too challenging for my body) the Friends I have Made are all over a couple DownUnder areas :-) some in Europe n Many in Asia(I Do Kind of Wish I had the Funds n Ability to Travel to Meet Them all though) So, OverAll I Have it Very Good!!!

This is bull...
This is Bull,
This is not the 1st time I am left outside a doctor's office after they closed waiting for my ride home... The ride itself hurts from the sharp turns n bumpy roads, n making arrangements to have the transports is a pain... Starting to think it isn't worth the hassles... If my darn insurance approved local speciality doctors then I wouldn't have this bull... I did away with the pain clinic trips to St Pete each month n now thinking even though the doc giving me the IV treatments for my bones is a good doc but thinking since in about 2 years there is no sign of the treatment doing anything for me n with the transport issues think this is my last trip outside of Bradenton for any medical stuff...
Don't think it is worth to pain, bull n issues to continue this sh...

GoodDay Everyone...
GoodDay everyone...
I'm off to a slow start, kept trying to wake but fell right back to sleep I remember waking at 9:30am n taking my BP then next thing it was 12noon n then 1pm then finally at 2pm got up but think because body wanted to go somewhere quickly :-)
Now I am fully a wake right side muscle are much better today feel like a warm patch not really painful n more of an annoyance now so I am healing :-) n no real pains anywhere to speak of...
My mother can't understand where my pains went, Well Let See:
I believe along with many n from my church it was a gift/blessing from above, it happened over nite after a Christian Retreat so that is main reason I believe... To help those that don't believe here are a few more thing Faith, Love n Love of others has a help in making one feel less depresses n depression adds to pains you have my mother is a prefect example of that her depression is making her pain maginify a lot, also been getting out more which helps one feel better plus Sun gives Vitamin D which go for bones, I also had that IV treatment in April for my bones to help make them stronger(1year at time) n a few other things I have change may have helped too so a number things have cause my major pains to disappear...
I do believe that how sudden it happened it was a blessing from above!!!
Hope my friends n family are doing well, HUGs

was a bit Upset...
I kind of feel insulted, ???
Well I noticed my internet was having issues kept connecting n disconnecting n since I was on my bed/commend area 1st checked my computer's connections thought they were lose, nope not that so restarted computer n still messed up then turned on my iPad n it also was having issues with connection so turned on my T-Mobile internet device n my iPad connected no problem so Ok was an issue with either Bright House Networks or their service box(for the TV, Phone n Internet) or their router here so checked TV n Phone n those were working fine, so figured turn router off wait a few minutes n turn back on n as I started to do that My Mother yells to me to call Bright House n ask them if they are having troubles I said not yet I am doing basic tech stuff to see if it is a trouble on our side n if it isn't that is when I would call So, I unplug power to router n wait n replug in router n watched the lights start to cycle n as it started up I hear My Mother talking on phone I pick up phone n Mom is asking Bright House what is going on n their tech is like unsure n then I say why you call them the problem is fixed I just restarted the router n Mom was like upset I interrupted her call to Bright House but I was upset she didn't trust my knowledge with computers n network/routers I was a computer tech before my stroke n still do my own tech support n I know to check own equipment before calling the techs of companies because when you call you usually get level 1 techs that know much less then I do n is maddening to talk to :-( :-)
but felt kind of insulted by Mom going behind my back n calling Bright House when I told her not to bother, I was correct on my fixing the issue n there was no need to talk to Bright House...
Oh Well, really Koala no need to be upset it is a very minor issue she did So, get over it...
:-P :-)
Be Glad it was a simple fix n you have the internet connection working again...
:-D

nothing new here, still doing fine YAY
but no energy to do much of anything, was thinking early this when I get up out of bed would go out n catch some sun by the pool area but, looking out my windows it looks overcast right now n my lack of motivation I will watch some more documentaries either on TV or NetFlix :-)
Hope You are doing Well, You are all in my thoughts n prayers(U need not believe in prayers to have someone include U in theirs, it means they care about you as Do I) well my friends n family hope you are doing well/better!!!
I know pains n hardship are terrible things, I have had many in my life n now everyone's is different but I try to turn the bad to some thing good, it can be a big challenge to do so but when done if helps in dealing with the hardships in life...
examples: having broken bones as a kid got to meet other kids with other hardship but still enjoyed life so hey broken bone is not much, also meeting those kids n seeing their hardships helped me deal with my stroke damage later on... I have a number of other bad things happen to me I have found a better way of looking at them to make them more positive, don't get me wrong I hate I was born with brittle bones but it also has had it positive side I just had to look hard for it... the positive side might be seeable right away but hopefully it can be found n it may not be a benefit to you but you are a Benefit to others n Me!!!

Sitting here doing some studying n...
Sitting here doing some studying n thinking about Jesus n what he has taught me n what he wants me to share n teach to others...
He loves us, he loves me, he saved me, he died for me, he died for n saved you n everyone...
He taught us to love everyone, forgive everyone,n turn the other cheek when it is struck so, love those that sin, even if it is a sin we/you disgust you(like sexual ones), He also teaches us not to judge others, which if we know someone is committing a sin or other thing we think is unforgivable WE Have to Stop n forgive those n ask Jesus for forgiveness for our judgements...
Jesus never said that a faith, a people, a person was to be hated or killed!!! Jesus told us that all that want to follow him do so, he did not tell those that followed him to kill/hurt those that don't follow him instead he sent his followers out to teach his love for his father n our fellow brothers/sisters/humans no matter their race, sex, abilities, faith n etc...
I some time feel disgust in fellow Christians for saying they are followers of Jesus but are quick to hate those that believe differently then themselves, behave a way that disturbs them n etc... When those want to stone to death a whore caught in the act of that act what did Jesus do??? He step between the sinner n the crowd n he too pick up a stone n asked what is her sin??? They said she is a prostitute, he ashes her is this true,she said yes... He turned to the crowd n said "Ok, he without sin, or sin in your heart you throw the first stone..." Slowly everyone there dropped their stones n walked away,.. Jesus then turned to the woman n asked where are your accusers??? He then told her she is forgiven, go now n sin No more...
I am learning it is hard not to want to throw the stone but even harder to forgive those that commit a sin in our eyes but that is what he wants me to do n teach others to...
Follow: His Love His Teaching His Forgiveness His Life His Father Our Father; Follow Him!!!

It is such a wonderful thing that my pain pains are gone n my other pains are very low n/or gone too, but body is old n worn out n damaged n brain has damage so signals to body don't work the way they should so I still have many challenges getting this 1967 body moving, it no longer moans to move or take a corner but it's springs aren't as springy, doors n hood don't open n close as well as it was 1st made, horn still works as OEM n Motor is still strong body has some bondo n a number of dents n extra metal supports holding it together but this hot rod still has another 2,000,000 or 3,000,000 miles left on it :-)
Hope All My Friends are doing Well!!!

What I think, subject Bible:
Hello Everyone,
Want to share something, I have learned some but not all of the Bible during my journeys, I have noticed that it has been though many of men's hands n translated a couple times before it was ever translated to English n if you have ever tried translating programs like Google Translate you know it isn't always a correct translation n also some old old old worlds do not have a correct translated word so men tried to guess the best wording to replace it with... Also the Bible was inspired my the Lord but written by mew(except for Book of Ruth) so the writings could have been influenced by men's beliefs, no saying that it true or not but know how men are n where... Also the Bible isn't 100% correct as we now know Earth was not created 1st nor even our sun our solar system is a younger one to many many many others out there... I also know the Bible is not laid out in the correct order of timeline some parts were written after the scary Book of Revelation n the Old Testament does not contain all Jewish Book that where written before Jesus Christ time so the Old Testament is a bit incomplete... Now don't get all mad n upset at this, these are what I know n I can't turn a blind eye to it but I am human n I have made mistakes n In No Way am I telling anyone to change how they view the Bible, that is their choice n right as it is my choice n right too... I believe there are lost texts, lost books, n misinterpretations in the Bible lost 100/1000's+/- of years ago some may have been hidden because old old old church leaders didn't like or agree with them or thought they where protecting us from something...
Ok why am I writing this n sharing it with everyone n I know some will get upset, mad n maybe unfriend me because of it:
Well I just couldn't continue to bite me lips when I hear some one saying the Bible is 100% correct, Nothing that man's hands have had his hands on can ever be 100% perfect n since the Bible has been though many many many men's hands n many many translation before it got to the English translation I am a firm believe it has errors in it n Genesis is the best example of this belief The Earth Wasn't 1st thing created, n Sun was the was the Second thing created n the Stars were not created last totally the opposite, Universe was 1st many other solar systems came n went before ours was created n the sun was the the 1st part to be created in the Sol Solar system n then the planets formed after time...
So agree or disagree that is your right n I will not try to change your belief but afford me the same, Do Not Try to convince me I am wrong...
I think what we can n should agree on as Christians is that God n Jesus Loves us n want us to love each other n help each other respect/obey God's laws...
Ok that is my 2cents :-)
Love n HUGs!!!

I also know the Bible is not laid out in the correct order of timeline some parts were written after the scary Book of Revelation n the Old Testament does not contain all Jewish Book that where written before Jesus Christ time so the Old Testament is a bit incomplete... Now don't get all mad n upset at this, these are what I know n I can't turn a blind eye to it but I am human n I have made mistakes n In No Way am I telling anyone to change how they view the Bible, that is their choice n right as it is my choice n right too... I believe there are lost texts, lost books, n misinterpretations in the Bible lost 100/1000's+/- of years ago some may have been hidden because old old old church leaders didn't like or agree with them or thought they where protecting us from something...
Ok why am I writing this n sharing it with everyone n I know some will get upset, mad n maybe unfriend me because of it:
Well I just couldn't continue to bite me lips when I hear some one saying the Bible is 100% correct, Nothing that man's hands have had his hands on can ever be 100% perfect n since the Bible has been though many many many men's hands n many many translation before it got to the English translation I am a firm believe it has errors in it n Genesis is the best example of this belief The Earth Wasn't 1st thing created, n Sun was the was the Second thing created n the Stars were not created last totally the opposite, Universe was 1st many other solar systems came n went before ours was created n the sun was the the 1st part to be created in the Sol Solar system n then the planets formed after time...
So agree or disagree that is your right n I will not try to change your belief but afford me the same, Do Not Try to convince me I am wrong...
I think what we can n should agree on as Christians is that God n Jesus Loves us n want us to love each other n help each other respect/obey God's laws...
Ok that is my 2cents :-)
Love n HUGs!!!

Hey Hey...
Hey Hey...
Waking now, have a kink in my back from how I was sleep but think it will go away with some tylenols because it isn't too bad heck just sitting n it has improved :-)
I still have a number of pains but they are so low now a days they are treatable by over the counter meds n some are so low that they are easily ignorable, with a life time of pains have a level of pain that I find is ignorable n in facts lets me know I am a wake, alive n to to be careful in those areas, a little pain isn't bad as long as level is stubbing your toe...
Hope everyone else is happy as I am, I am alive, blood pressure doing well, have great FaceBook friends, Wonderful Church friends!!! n know the Big Guy has me watched over, know he loves me(but I often make him shake his head in wonder LOL), I am able to move on my own power, n have a old but working wheelchair what else do I need nothing else, well I am praying I find a woman that would like to join our lives together with maybe it time :-)

The Differences in Churches...
The Differences in Churches:
LDS - Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
BCC - Bayside Community Church (west campus)
Both have very good people...
Both have a good spirit in the service...
LDS is run well n respectfully n joyful but dry for my taste, music is also respect but old fashion...
LDS is very formal, n their music is old old fashion, like most older churches they stay the same n don't like change like in dress n music... I feel like I stand out because how I dress n all the stuff around my neck n stuff on my wheelchair...
BCC is run well but more relaxed n with smiles n joy n the music is modern n cool n way more upbeat...
BCC has a casual dress n more relaxed, I still am a stand up at BCC but not too distracting from the others there...
I feel more at ease n in the right company @ Bayside...
The LDS try to make you feel welcome they are very loving people I can not fault them, they love Jesus Christ n it upsets me when people say that Mormon's aka LDS are not Christian being a member of the LDS from 10/1990 to 10/2011 I know they love Christ...
Think many that say LDS are not Christians just never took the time to research the LDS church n people, they are a very family minded group with strong morals n passing on those moral on to their children...
Think many Christians forget what Jesus said "Judge not yet yee shall be judge" aka how you judge others will be how you will be judged by Jesus n best not to judge at all n remember what Jesus wants us to do, Love our neighbor as we want to be Loved!!!
I feel understanding other's faiths helps a person better know other n be able to get a better interaction with them, if we nothing or just know rumors of what other faiths do or believe we are truly blind to the truth... I believe 1st Love n Respect others n 2 take some time to learn what other faiths believe n I mean read books that are written about that faiths, I am not a reader(reading is hard n challenging for me) so I research by simple books like 'Complete Idiot's Guide to...' or '...for Dummies' books n also watch documentaries about faith n beliefs n never go by what others think/believe... I dislike when people put down n say very bad stuff n from my own experience I have heard untrue things about different faiths because 1 I was a member of a faith that was bad mouthed 2 I researched about a faith that a person was wrong about n it happen more then you might think... People are easily swayed by what others tell them with out even checking the facts, many humans judge on rumors alone which is sad/disturbing... I also dislike people calling a faith a cult when it isn't, think of this: what you think the Jewish people n Pagans thought of the early Christians they most likely believe Christians were a part of a cult n I know for a period of time were killed by Romans n also know different Christians often disagreed with each other n even killed each other n most likely believed the other was following a false belief so, since we are not all knowing we should follow Jesus original teachings Love/Honor God n His rules n to Love Your Neighbor n Not to Judge Others that includes their lives, faiths or lack of any...
My advise HUG a fellow human that believes in Islam, Muslim, Jewish, Mormon, Hindu, Atheist, Pagan, n the many Christian faith n etc...
So, I(Giovano 'Koala' Fusco Jr.) believe that Jesus wants me to spread/share/teach LOVE each other n give Big HUGs to Everyone, Everyone Man n Woman!!!
HUGs!!!

Feeling Very Good Today...
Good Morning Everyone...
I am doing well this morning a few minor aches which should be easy to manage with over the counter pain med, I think I will see pain clinic one last time this month n chat with doc n explain I no longer want any Rx pain meds YAY!!! I would cancel next appointment but there is a med he also prescribes to relax my muscles(n that med is called Flexitol my family can prescribe n has done so in the past) n since I don't see my Family Doc till Dec n I have an appointment scheduled with pain doc will see him explain that just need him to do one last prescript for me n that I don't see the need for any more visits after this month's appointment...
Yes I am doing that well, I still use Rx Pain Cream n thanks to a family member have enough of that n cool thing my Insurance has finally decided to cover future refills of it, took them some time to decide it So, that is good... The cream I use on some areas of my back once in a while but mainly use on left shoulder n left thumb n wrist areas...
I wish I could share the miracle I got with my friends/family the are suffering with pains, I have you in my prayers n praying you all the same feeling of reduction in pain... I said reduction because still have some minor pains n aches but are easily manageable with over the counter meds...
So, Hope you are doing better/well, if you are having pains n would like m to include you in my prayers which I do twice a day now comment about your request or inbox me if you want it to be private(but by commenting my fellow Baysiders would also pray for you all) n those that don't have the belief in prayer I can still try to ask for sharing of the freeing of pain for you n is only my time wasted(not wasted to me it is my pleasure to pray for any of you in hopes to share what is happening with me with you) so if you don't believe in the Big Guy I do n I an try for you, we never know stranger things have happened like me being part of your lives...

I never want any of my friends to feel I am pushing my love for the Big Guy, Son n Spirit on to anyone just what I believe like my belief JJ Abrams will ruin Star Wars too, like the US Congress n Prez are ruining the USA n we need all new Congress that will stop killing the country n thinks of the people above themselves n a Prez that really wants to help the USA, oops started to go off my main thought, remember friends can believe different things as long as neither try to push on to each other...

Good Day Everyone...
Good Day Everyone...
When I woke up I didn't want to wake, I was depressed about the wheelchair batteries n other odds n ends n I didn't want to make calls today, like I knew my pain doctor's office would forget to make the call for my ride next week which they didn't call on but luckily I was able to make the arrangements for my transport YAY me :-)
2nd call didn't want to make is to Batteries Plus because 1 the receipt I have doesn't show any period of a warranty n 2 it has been 6months this I got them n either thing I figured Batteries Plus would say "sorry can't help you..." but hey they said the batteries have a 12month warranty so bring them in. YAY again for me today I will see if Russ Wallace or another member of my church would mind bringing the batteries to Batteries Plus for them to test for 2 day n then return to get the new batteries... My roommate Mark n I will put in the spare batteries that only hold a charge good enough to get around the house so I can still move about the apartment ok but no trips outside till they decide to give me the new ones n etc... but hey it is looking better now then when I first a woke YAY :-)
Body n back seem good today but my left thumb feels very sore even the slightest touch n movement is painful but it isn't broken unless it has a micro-fracture n no will no go to hospital for it, I have a split here I can put on 1 no way to get to local ER(Blake Hospital) with the wheelchair the way it is going n won't call EMT's for a thumb that is a waste of money, waste of EMT's times, n I couldn't stand the time in waiting to see Doc n him/her say ok put split on it n see your doctor in a week or 2, n how mom has been lately she really couldn't give a ride home from the ER so nope No ER from my thumb pain :-)
How are my great friends n family doing??? I hope you are doing well too!!!

Hello, had great day yesterday...
Hello Everyone...
Yesterday was a great day n last nite didn't want to go to sleep because I didn't want it over... At dinner had great friends from church join me so the was a blessing, had a wonderful time at church last nite... Wheelchair concerned me because it charge didn't hold got to Publix n wheelchair felt really weak so asked Publix if I could charge up n they were fine with that so, I plugged in n charged up for about 20-30 mins n made it home with a good amount left YAY...
I will have to take it easy on them till I can figure a way to replace them again, it is a pain that this wheelchair eats up batteries every 6+months one it is $300 at a time n insurance already told me they won't help n really don't want my church to keep helping because I feel embarrassed but blessed each time they have helped... Might have a plan to replace them but can't try it till next month...
Yesterday was so great all the wishes from my online friends n family was a super gift, social media(like facebook) has helped me make friends n connect with old friends n family that I can't visit now so social media is a true gift to me...
Thank You that wrote on my wall for my birthday n was great to have so many friends/family writing birthday good will/wishes YAY Thanks!!!
Today I am going to sit back relax n also not use my wheelchair so it has more time to charge up(yes U electronic nerds it can only charge to a level n more time doesn't add to it just going to let it be for today) since it is my only decent means to get around I need to respect it n not abuse it...
My body is doing some what ok today, a little sore but nothing I can't handle or manage so I am good :-)
I hope you all are well today, HUGs...

YAY YAY it's my birthday...
Hello everyone...
Think today is going to ok, body is having very low pains, right arm is cold again but a lot should say instead of cold it has a slight chill to it...
So today I have to update my ages:
legal age - 46 (was 45)
n let say body's age - 76 (it usually feels like 85)
my mental age, well for today - 13 (usually say 15)
n my 2nd birthday/rebirthday/stroke-survival-day (which isn't due to 4/2014) is still: 35 (aging backwards from day I survived figure gives me excuse to acted younger n figure the older/younger I get the more I will not make sense n will need many naps n will be easily distracted n etc...) :-D
Now since today I am praying n hoping for a miracle which is 'I pray n hope my PowerBALL number comes in, so I can say good bye to Social Security n Medicaid (after they take a cut of my winning not sure they will but might as well plan on it n same thing with Medicaid) then I can afford a new really cool electric wheelchair, also get my month fixed all the broken teeth removed was thinking I would be able to afford replacing all the broken teeth but don't think my jaw could handle the surgery because things are so brittle in my mouth so safe bet just get dentures, get me mother a good electric wheelchair too, n have a house built the Koala Compound :-) give 10%+ to Bayside Community Church n a bit more to help build the west campus own building, then setup a foundation to give aid to people having wheelchair issues(like needing repair work n/or a new chair) n also give some fun money to people that have been of help to me though the years n also to friends n family that might need a little help... Also have a special convention with stars n music n only my friends can go to(n would cost them any money to go) this would be: KoalaCon :-)
Up I have put some thought into this n figure I might even need an accountant n lawyer for some of my plans...
Well hope your day good as well!!!
HUGs!!!

Think me n roommate repaired the problem w/ the wheelchair...
Well think me n roommate(Mark) fixed the problem from last nite... When we opened up the battery n motor compartment I barely touched a connection between the the two batteries (the black wires/connectors) n the connection came apart so, we used some Gorilla Tape to secure the connectors together n noticed the red connectors seemed was fair easy to come apart where these connectors used to snap in place but seems the snapping part hold them together has worn down so I Gorilla Tped the red connectors together also... We sprayed a number of areas that I know needed it... After putting wheelchair back together we went outside Mark ran beside me while I raced up n down the street n sidewalk n went over a number of things that chair had issues with last nite, the wheelchair functioned great almost felt faster(might just felt that way since it suddenly slowed down last nite) the real test will be tomorrow when me n Mark go to Walmart to get stuff for my pantry/refrig; think that is a mile, mile n half round trip...
So, right now I am feeling good about me n Mark's work on the wheelchair...
So, right now I am feeling good about me n Mark's work on the wheelchair...
A very cool day but at end something happened that is very concerning...
Hello Everyone...
I had a great day, counselor's appointment went well, I discussed some issue concerning my roommates things I could discuss here but think it would make the issues blow up from an ant hill to a mountain... Told her(my counselor - Mary Stahr) about my recent changes in habits n the things I am improving(praying more n reading more n watch a lot less TV) n she really seemed to enjoy my things I am doing... I told her about the guy I saw last nite n what I did n how my 1st thoughts of the guy with a bit of fear/concern n then my 2nd opinion when I saw him in the light... We discussed it n my 1st reaction was understandable because it was nite n it would be easy for someone to attack me to stale my iPad, even my wheelchair n she was cool with my 2nd reaction, n then I discussed how at 1st I was super proud of myself n then thought about that was not cool, but then my 3rd reaction about me thinking I could have done more...
Then talk her about other odds n end going on, it is so good/cool to have a counselor to listen to my troubles n discuss them n work on what to do with stuff...
Then I had my good early dinner at AppleBee's n resisted the prompts to have some alcohol I was asked a few times(BTW I am no longer taking a med that I was told would make me super sick if I drank any booze but a couple months ago read info on all my meds n saw that what I was taking only makes you sick if drink too much so a couple drink nothing would happen n with once I have 1 or 2 I don't care about things except getting more booze, both my doctor n counselor know I am no longer taking the med n are ok with it seeing I have been doing good at resisting the desire to want to drink); back to AppleBee's I did have a beer a root beer :-) oh n because the manager didn't visit me (if the manager doesn't visit you before you get the bill you get $10, they try to do that to see how you liked the meal n how you liked the service) before the bill was given to me I got a $10 off my next visit YAY might go Saturday before church n have a desert (because will have pizza after church so don't want to fill up n also I am down to $12 in my budget have more in my account but have checks I haven't sent yet but have the funds to cover those checks so $12 is what is left that I can use) there was a desert I saw n was very tempted to have but was way to full, it was a chocolate moose n Oreo cookie sunday type thing for under $3, boy now I want it :-( :-) So Saturday I can get that n another root beer n that will cover that but don't think it would be good towards a tip so even if there is extra left on gift card would need to use my funds for a tip which should be ok...
Saw a couple sisters from my former church n had a cool chat with them, they want to visit me some time which is ok with me, they might try to re-recruit me but that isn't in the cards :-) Bayside is way to cool n the spirit is so great too n Bayside members have been so great making me feel as part of a super big family n have had n having inspirations in things So, if they try to re-recruit me I will politely explain that Bayside is where I feel wanted n as part of a family; in the Mormon church felt as the black sheep n I never liked their formal dressing n the music always put me to sleep @ Bayside the music is so good n moving I wouldn't be able to sleep unless I stay up for a few days n went to church :-) At Bayside the dress code(there is one) is casual/relaxed at the Mormon church it is all stiff dress shirt n tie n etc n really Not Me as must of you would know by how I dress :-D but I respect anyone devoting their life/time to the Lord, when I see a priest, nun n missionaries I go towards them say hi n chit chat... So I welcome chatting with the missionaries if they want to visit me...
When I got to Bayside there was a feeling I felt of so much positive energy n spirit n seemed like everyone including me was super happy(which I was) n the serve was very good n seeing n chatting with friends was so cool n uplifting...
A friend was concerned about things he saw n thought I posted, I don't post (his words) 'half naked' women but if one of the pages I like posts photos of models in swimwear n etc I may click the 'like' button as a former model photographer I still like seeing good pictures... I am constantly submitting reports to FaceBook of posts that violate FaceBook posting policies... I don't know how to stop other's feed from seeing my likes but to put a light on this issue: People on here (should) know I hate sports n online gaming should I get all upset that someone posts info, pics n etc of their favorite teams or player, should I get upset because someone wants Mickey Mouse to run a prez, NO shouldn't get upset at a persons likes, beliefs n etc... I thank my friend for letting me know some are concerned about my 'like's n posts but everyone needs to be cool/relax you won't see naked women on any of my posts n likes... I report offensive posts that violate FaceBook's rules but FaceBook doesn't have an poison to share the reporting I (or any1) does but they share yours/my likes but I am not ashamed of my likes... I love women in many shapes n many different shades of skin color, women are a great gift of God n Nature :-)
I also was thinking, anyone that sees a woman in swimwear n etc n they think 'Oh No, Oh My a Half Naked Woman that's so bad' ??? If they think that then I guess they don't go to beaches n pools, right 'Oh No, Oh My Half Naked Women Walking Everywhere' if a person says "Half Naked" I think they are the ones with a train of thought issue, if you see a picture of a woman n think 'Half Naked' they are the ones looking at the picture in a wrong way because I know many that think it is a bad thing still go to beaches/pools with no issues... Think that if someone has no problem going to beach/pool then they shouldn't be offended by similar pictures... Now I am not faulting anyone but think people have to examine how they are looking at picture n the women they see at beaches/pools... n just thinking if the pictures, beaches n pools are showing things they think are wrong, what about their daughters, sisters, n cousins shouldn't they be cover head to toe so they aren't showing concernable image of themselves...
Also as a former retired model photographer I have a great respect for good photos of models n a respect for the models n the female form n so I will continue to 'like' FaceBook pages n their pictures that I think are really cool... But same note will continue to report Fb pages n Photos that violate FaceBook policies...
Sorry this (originally meant as a post but now a note) is so long but covering a lot in it n have a feeling might lose a few FaceBook friends over it but I need to explain how I felt today n how I felt about my posts n likes n people can't change me or others...
Should I tell others that their posts about the Klingon baseball team beating the Romulans baseball teams butt is against my liking n please stop sharing/liking it; stop sharing/liking supporting Mickey Mouse's nation free busing system proving free bus rides coast to coast because it is against my views; or say stop sharing your views about the Force/Karma n etc because that's not right you have to do as me n follow George Burns as the creator... These aren't real but trying to give example without getting into a real debate over who is the best James T. Kirk the original one(1966-2008) or the new guy(2009+)...
Remember we need to be true ourselves n not try to be something we are not...
Expressing one concerns is ok/cool as long as you take the time n understand my views...
Now on to something that happened on my home after church, about 10' before entering the apartment complex my wheelchair suddenly stopped n started cycling it's LED's n wouldn't move as I went down a curb cut n when I turned the chair off n on again it started acting like it was having low energy going slow n barely able to go up other curb cuts that I had to go on... The wheelchair worried me with it acting n feeling like it is having power issues I called the apartment asked my roommate to come down by the complex's office building incase it stopped totally n might need a push home, I did need a major push into the apartment n once in side chair seems ok... Today Thursday after Mark's stuff he needs to go out to do when he comes home me n him are going to open the chair up... I think a wire/connection might be lose n not giving the wheelchair the power it needs... I think this because 1) in the last three days have done a lot of travel in the wheelchair n over some areas it wasn't meant to wheelchair though, 2) think the bumps might have loosened battery cables, 3) the battery LED power level gauge still showed I has a good charge, showing it has a good charge makes me think the gauge has a connection that it knows it's power level correctly but if the connection is not right/correct/good might be why I am having power issues n know batteries are good since a member from church just got the batteries brand new a few months ago...
My mother thinks it something worst(negative nelly) but I am hoping it it is just lose connections(thinking positively) if a connection issues should be an easy fix but if it is like mom thinks I am out of luck...
I would really dislike asking for help again or asking to borrow more money again...
I will continue to think positive about this n keep praying n hoping n wishing that I win the PowerBALL so Have the income to get new wheelchair n repairs when ever I need that...
So sorry again this so long, I hope you understand me more n better...
I hope the person that shared his concerns with doesn't get upset over this post n I think there are others that share his concern so the part of this note that covers concerns about my likes n posts isn't targeted at anyone but for all to understand where my frame of mind is...
Ok Nite Everyone...
HUGs!!!

on my way home...
on
way home I saw a guy that looked homeless n very acting in a way made me
want to get away from him ASAP which I did n then I stopped at TacoBell
for something for a late dinner when I got home, as I waited for my
food the guy entered TacoBell...
The guy asked the clerk for a cup so he could have some water, n as I looked at him the person I was 1st concerned n guarded about change from a better view of him in the light, then I saw a guy way down on his luck n even saw sadness in his heart/eyes... I went to where he sat n asked him 'Hi, hey please don't be upset at me but have you had anything to eat today???' he said he had not... I said 'Here dude it isn't much but is all I have on me' I emptied my wallet of my cash which was about $2 +/-cents, figured it was enough to get a value taco or something else on the value menu...
I started to feel good about what I did n was started feeling to much pride in what I did, I was now 3/4 way home from TacoBell n I started thinking hey pull that pride back Koala, too much pride isn't good n then I am like yeah n I could n should have just given him what I order n then just reorder for me so that humbled me in realizing I could/should of done more...
Now some may think he will us what little I gave him but I could see his hunger n truly believe e will get a little something to eat...
BTW, the small group study went well was a bit of challenge to get there because 26th st doesn't have complete sidewalks to where the small group is being held but I found n made a route I can mange without being on a major street with cars/trucks/etc... n met a number cool people...
Now I will finish my late dinner do my 2nd part of what I did this morning n then head to bed, I see my counselor tomorrow n have a number of things to talk over like my new daily routine...
Hope you are all doing good n TTYL I am hoping to be up about 8 - 9am...
HUGs!!!

Hey new start today :-)
Hey everyone...
Yup I am up, been up for a while trying to change some patterns in my life:
1 - wake up in the morning instead afternoon/lateafternoons...
2 - started doing prayers before I head to dreamland n also when I awake...
3 - started reading the Bible (setting at least 30mins n will try it 2x a day) I started today reading 'Matthew'
4 - leaving TV off n will schedule times to have it on for some of my favorite shows n documentaries TV shows...
5 - with new wake pattern I am doing will be going to bed earlier :-)
6 - I am also scheduling in some time to do some reading of other books instead of wasting it on the zombie making box(TV) will be trying to do at least 2 1/2 hours sessions a day maybe more or even longer will see how my brain handles it :-)
7 - been noticing some weakness in my limbs n my movements n that I don't think/blame on stroke damage think(pretty sure) is from lack of activity so am going to do a few leg lifts n arm lifts with all my limbs not a lot at 1st just need do get body moving move maybe help with my spare tire too :-)
So, I feel good today, a little sore in mid back n left side of ribs think I slept in a way that caused it to be sore but put some pain cream medication on my ribs n on my back, it is starting to feel a bit better YAY!!!
How are you all doing???

hello everyone...
hello everyone...
doing very good today, though sleep times are messed up, body seems to be active from 5pm to 9am need to try to change that to 10or11am ti1or3am...
body is doing good medium pain levels vs the amount yesterday that was high...
thing with my roommates that was upsetting me is a bit better too now YAY
So I say thing are ok, the only thing that has my nerves on edge is congress being jerks n threatening a freeze of paying the budget, which I am concerned that Social Security will be one of the things placed on the hold list, why I say if Social Security is frozen so should the funds of congressmen n senators be frozen they should suffer along with everyone else for their pettiness n their bull!!!
Hope you are all doing well, HUGs...

Pains ??? Abuse:
Pains ??? Abuse:
Since I was 6months old I have had broken bones, a lot of which happened between ages of 1 year old n 12 years old... In High School had a number of broken fingers but kind of my fault going very fast in my manual wheelchair n making fast turns by grabbing one wheel n sometimes getting a finger caught in a wheel's spokes but fix those with plastic knife n tape...
I was in the hospital a lot as a kid so much knew the nurses names still remember head nurse name Darcy...
I have talk to my past counselors n in a way they say I suffered the effects of child abuse but there is no one at fault it was caused by my bone disorder OI...
Suffering from broken bones as a kid n not having the drugs they have now I learned to live an amount of pain...
Over 40+ years I have had many injuries including over 50/60 broken bones, compressed back bones n broken teeth n not to forget being electrified which cause my muscles to crush my left shoulderball so I know pains... So I have suffered alot as a child but it exposed me to others that had it harder then I did so I learned to deal with what I have n be thankful I have good days too, kind of like having Yin-Yang type life can't have the good with out some bad...
So I push, crawl n wheel on though the pains n hardship n enjoy the days I am able to be around to smile, love(hope to find a wife to start a family ASAP), laugh n make people smile or look at me in wonder "What the Heck is up with that guy is he sane" Nope LOL n don't want to be LOL I may try when I start a family but no need right now :-D
When I post an update n list my pains it is ok well some what, I mean I got n was able to post how I am doing the days I don't get online are my really bad days...
Every day I can interact with my online friends is a blessing to me n thank you all!!!

my wheelchair broke last nite n now it is unusable...
Well the control unit broke last nite, the joystick is no longer communicating to the control board something broke internally so I am now apartment bound with no way to fix the wheelchair because I have no funds to do so...
I am wishing someone out it the world would get me a new wheelchair since my insurance company (Medicaid - Amerigroup) refuses to repair anything n told me they will not put any funds in repairs but will replace wheelchair in 2 more years which leaves me stranded at home...
here is my FaceBook page that has been setup to try to get help for my mobility:
https://www.facebook.com/easieraccess4giovano
please check out the Fb page n 'like' n share it n maybe someone out there can help me get a new wheelchair ASAP!!!
Thanks for any help in this, like even contacting news station in the Tampa, Bradenton, Sarasota area about my struggles with Medicaid n my broken wheelchair n maybe someone somewhere will be able to get me a new wheelchair...
Thanks...
UPDATE!!!
Got used control unit for my wheelchair so it is running again, thankfully!!!

me, info, my issues n etc...
Hi all, my name is Giovano. I am single, I am Half-Italian the other half is English, Irish, Scottish, and Native American. I was born in Virgina. I was born with a rare bone disorder called Osteogenesis Imperfecta aka brittle bones.I have Hearing loss in both Ears 80% left 40% right linked to my OI. I was electrocuted at a festival in Portland, ME (7/1992) and had my left shoulder ball replaced because the electric current caused my shoulder muscles to crushed my shoulder ball... I had stomach surgery (12/2001) to lose weight, I lost over 160lbs and have kept it off. I was hit by a Car while crossing the street in my Wheel Chair (12/2007)... Between 2003 n 2008 I was an extreme drunk wanting to drink myself to death because of very bad depression... I had a Stroke (4/2008) which has effected my right side of my body, I lost all use of right side but have regained a lot of its use. I have to use an electric wheelchair to get around... I have been though alot in life but have seen others having it worst and they still enjoy what they have...
I have pains in most of my joints but mainly my lower back, also have pains in my left arm. my thighs, mid n upper back n others here n there mainly from many many many broken bones during my life with brittle bones!!!
So I say enjoy yourself, have fun look for the bright side of everything... and when ever possible do something fun and silly and laugh!!!
Let the teachings of Jesus&Buddha Guide You!!!
The Meaning of Life is to do your best at whatever makes yourself feel forfilled & Happy...
but Do No Harm to Yourself/Others, Be Kind to all God's Creations!!!
some say I have bad luck but I look at it like this being born with the brittle bones got me to deal with hard challenges at young age n meet other kids dealing with even hard things but still enjoying their childhood so learned to except hard ship at young age n see how others dealt with immobility helped me later when I had my stroke, n the car hitting me was good luck because it gave me the funds to move me n my mother to Florida after my stroke n being bound to the powered wheelchair, n the stroke was good luck to because before my stroke I was in a deep depression n trying to drink myself to death(like Nike Cage in movie 'Leaving Vegas') n when I had the stroke it reawoke me to wanting to live n stop being a drunk n stop smoking my cigars(was smoking 5 big cigars a day), so I see my luck as being good but wish my PowerBALL number would come in soon :-)
Let the teachings of Jesus&Buddha Guide You!!!

3rd I still enjoy beautiful things like: beautiful scenes, pictures, n women(n their great smiles)...
4th Friends n interacting with them in person or online n HUGging them...

12th that I live in a country n time where my basic needs are somewhat cared for because I know their are countries I would be dead or in an awful hospital so glad to be born here n live in this time because know this country had it's bad history with disabilities So, I am lucky to live here at this time...
