Yeah they have a few agencies here relatively local. I did in 2013 sign up n work a job for 2 months I was in walking distance from. This is before my eyesight went to shit. But I lasted only the 2 months. I was sick too often; got fired.
Volunteering is about all I could do n there aren't too much for opps on that, locally. Even then with my health I can never guarantee I will be well enuf on a given day, to make promises in advance. I'm in VERY poor health.
But a little test: I was recently called up for jury duty. Where I live its not just one trial--- they commit you for a full quarter of the year: easier however as trials begin a few weeks apart. I next report on Nov 14 for example
If I get picked it'll be a daily thing for however long the trial lasts. I have a few dates in December to report as well. Now if I'm successful at showing up, being well (which takes a lot of planning ahead for ex I won't eat for a full 48-72 hours prior to being needed some place ).... if I show up n don't get sick n do my duty successfully and am Able to see whats going on.... then hey maybe I will convince myself I'm not such a sick person and I can do some things.
I can in theory control part of my illness by fasting. But I can't fast forever. I will eventually have to eat. With food comes sickness guaranteed.
Other aspects I can not control
Debilitating migraines can occur with no warning. Docs don't give me any meds to abort one, only preventative meds that also do not always prevent one.
I know I could bitch n moan n get outta jury duty on the irritable bowel alone. But I don't want to do that. I wanna participate as it's a good Test for me (*can I even be well and responsible any more?) And it should be interesting.
Aside from those dates I am needed to take care of someone's home for a week while they travel in late Nov. That's easy enuf
That's not a job; that's helping some loved ones.
So at least I will stay busy n not sit around sorry for my self "woe-is-me-ing" gets So old, so quickly.
