Happy to announce...

I'm a little scared to say it.

At the same time, I want to stand in my 

driveway and scream it at the top of my lungs.

Yes, I said stand.

" I FEEL BETTER!"

"I DON'T HAVE UNBEARABLE PAIN!"

Thank the Lord,

all the prayers and treatments are

working...and I feel more and more

like myself.

I have this chiropractor...I'm gonna

get a picture with him to share later.

He does good work.

So does his massage gal, Sonia.

I have stretched, and iced and 

positioned myself properly and all the hard work

is paying off!!

I just have to say..thanks for listening

to my saga of back pain from surgery.

I have such empathy and sympathy for people in pain now.

I want to go 'be there' in any way for someone in pain.

I want to hug them and say "I know".

 {Not kidding, tell me of someone you know in pain,

I want to do something for them.}

Woo hoo!

I want to dance, but I don't want to mess something up.

So, I'm doing a dance like this...

 {Remember the scene in Love Actually?!}

I am here to encourage you of two things.

1. Prayer--it works

2. Let people help you 

Prayer- I have had my friends and family pray for

healing to happen in my body.  I have had my doctor

pray for my pain.  I have had strangers place their hands on me 

and ask for healing.

Most sciatic pain takes 6-8 weeks

to subside, I am at week 4...don't want to go backwards and

time will tell, but I think that says something. 

Let people help you--I have had to learn a 

tough lesson.  I can't do it all.  I do need help.

It's okay to take help.  Cuz when I do, I help the person

giving the help as well...it makes them feel

needed and that they made an impact.

And friends, you have made an impact!

And for that, you have my deepest gratitude.

Gosh...I think I just made myself cry.

 

Gonna do some celebrating tonight...
