Congress - they shouldn't get paid if no budget is passed...

We Need to show/tell the politicians to think of the people before themselves by Making n Voting In a law Saying No Congressman/Senators Will Get Paid n Their Freeze Their Funds Until They Balance, Vote n Pass a Budget for the USA!!! They Want to Mess with the Budget They have to Share in the Mess it Causes!!! No Budget No Congressman/Senator Money Either!!!

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!!!

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!!!
