• Coping With Healing

  Before Thanksgiving I was exploring my options with jobs. There were a couple of interviews that were done and unfortunately one was good for me or it wasn’t good enough for them and I didn’t get a call or email back. One would have been too difficult to train for with all the driving on…

• 5 Months… Later

  Wow! So a lot has happened since the day before my surgery just five long months ago. I thought I would be posting in the interim but things were much more different and difficult for this 3rd surgery dealing with my long ulna bone in my left arm. This was not quite expected, because believe…

• The Difference of One Week

  Last week I resigned myself to living in limbo. This does not mean I sat idly by and did absolutely nothing just that I simply waited on God’s timing. Mom will always remind me of a favorite saying that is also a favorite family song, In His Time. I would sing this with Dad and…

• The Complications of Life

  For four years I have waited for this week, four long excruciating years. During the past 48 hours law and order has come back to our streets thankfully due to President Trump’s Executive Orders. Tom Homan, is a Godsend and watching some of the first arrests even from Boston has been so encouraging. Boston is…

• The Timing of Pain…

  While preparing for the past weekend familiar pains have resurfaced. Back in October I had a shot in my wrist. It took a good while for that shot to finally dissolve. Thankfully. I only wish it had lasted a bit longer. I am grateful I was able to do both Cantata’s and didn’t realize how…

• Sitting In… The Lobby

  Wednesday was a good day. I was really excited that my therapy was about to start. It has been a good 6 years since I first had to go through therapy before getting to the MRI for my initial diagnosis. Only a month and a half ago was my first time back in this hospital…

• The Timing

  As I said yesterday my foot has been giving me some fits. On the whole I have learned how to deal with my foot pain. However, I’m stumped right now. We have had some colder mornings, but they haven’t been lasting very long. Since last Thursday night something has just felt different. I can’t put…

• My Allergic Reaction

  This past weekend has been a doozy for me. One little pain has turned into something much more than I was ready for physically or emotionally. After living with some pains that I thought would maybe just go away after a couple of days today makes day number 6 of a continuously changing problem. Monday…

• My Appointment

  Surprisingly I didn’t throw up in the car on the drive over even though I have felt queasy on and off since late Saturday afternoon. Then I was in the office in less than five minutes of being in the Clinic signing paperwork and sitting down. It was remarkable, Mom said the last few times…
