I'm such an idiot..lost the paper work for my jury duty summons & lost
the paper work from my Dr excusing (he didn;t make a copy just wrote
it up when I was in his office) I;ve torn the palce apart it's not
here

then i thought leave alone...supposed to call the office mang cuz my
tiolet is leaking & they have a fit if your palce isn't spotless

so i go in the bathroom see the bath tub is dirty start to clean

then lean over and screamed why the fuck did you die on me Rick and
can't stop screaming which turned into sobbing

Rick was one who kept me organized and I always took care him, he had
cancer

I have adhd, can't take meds for it it's contraindicted with other
meds I take

i now it makes no sense to be angry with him & know he's no longer in
pain every fucking day and I know he's better off

why the fuck did Rick have to die been 1 year & 4 months but who's
counting

what the hell do i do abt jury duty

why can't i stop crying every day since he's been gone WTf is wrong
with me

sorry about the language don't usally swear like this

You'll have to excuse the ignorance of local US Dr's offices as I can
only speak for the ones here in Australia.

Generally you should be able to call the receptionist and ask for
another copy of the doctor's letter to be sent out. Yes, in this case
the Dr will have to write it again but I'm assuming it was probably a
fairly short note, in which case it really won't be an issue for him to
do it.

As for the jury duty, I'd call whatever place you need to call (the
courts? I'm sorry, I don't know who you'd call in the US) and explain
the situation. I'm sure they'll be able to give you some advice on what
to do at this point.

I'd guarantee that you're not the first person to lose their paperwork.
They'll have a procedure to handle it... you might have to put up with
some desk jockey being all grumbly about the extra work but they'll get
over it and have forgotten about it by the end of the day.

As for the ADHD, I mentioned before that there are ways of tackling it
without medication if you're prepared to do a little bit of homework and
make some choices about the food you eat each day. Now there is
definitely a debate over whether this diet treatment is as effective as
medication... but since you can't take the medication anyway you might
as well give this a shot.

Here are a couple of websites you could try:

http://www.homeschoolmath.net/teaching/add-adhd-diet.php
(This one talks about kids, but take a look at the dietary information
regarding food allergies)

http://www.feingold.org/pg-overview.html
(This site is promoting their special "Feingold diet"... I'd look into
it but take everything with a pinch of salt but I've seen independent
studies which seem to indicate this is genuine)

Unfortunately I can't help you with the sadness and anger over your
partner's death. At least there is nothing I can say that wouldn't come
across as patronising and/or condescending when you consider that I'm
just a stranger on the internet.

Big hug, Lynn....
I think that telling any jury selection people of how you feel about the
loss of Rick might just suffice of its own.....
Of course you ight need thepaper for work.....

Hope you can get another by just calling your dr's office.....

May your day be kind and smooth, and people all wear a kind smile as they
cross your path....

Elonare and Jonezi....you're both very kind, thank you

and an update...I called my daughter she's a paralegal and got the
phone # for the county Jury Office..i was going to ask her to take of
it she has power of attorney because of some legal matter's (no I
haven't committed a crime) : P ....but she's sick today

I called explained what had happened...told the woman I wasn't trying
to make excuses and she asked what my Dr had written then told me she
would excuse me but my Dr needed to fax over another letter not what
he had wrote but an entirely different one they have very specific
guidelines

..they very strict now on Jury duty because so many people worm their
way out of it for years, so they really clamped down...I really wish I
could serve on a jury..I'm not this patriotic person being bleeding
heart liberal and all... I still feel it's part of my duty

but the woman I talked at the Jury Office was very nice and
helpfull...that doesn't happen much when comes to Governement
Offices..but Phew..she gave me their fax and said I would be
exempt...I thanked her so much she must have wanted off the phone

Thank you all so very much

and sorry I freaked out

Hm...Not sure I agree with this thought....I am sure there are quite a few
American poets....;-)
