I hope you get good sleep tonight, least, and glad your feeling slightly better. I hope you get the MRI approved, the Dr needs to know what’s going on to make sure you’re on the right track.


what a sweet brother and neighbors. Glad you find solace in Billie.❤️🐶

Yes, Billie is kind of like a shield for me, she buffers the noise and disturbances from the outside world and makes our little corner of it a peaceful and happy place. (well, Billie and my two cats also are very soothing to my spirit. Tonight I'm grateful that Billie helped me out by doing her business (a LW) right away when I took her out. It's like she knew it was painful to stand and move around and was saving me time. We were only outside about 3 minutes so the pain went away quickly when I was sitting down again.

AT, how's your little doggie doing? Didn't he have a health scare a while ago? How's he doing now?

Yes, I do have very kind neighbors and a lovely brother. That's another reason I don't want to (be forced to) move. This is a good neighborhood.Well lit and safe, as far as I know.

Still asking for prayers that I can stay here and keep feeding my stray cats. They depend on me, I can't just leave them...

pets can definitely sense your emotions, they just know.

Least, I hope you start to see some improvement with your pain. And, I also hope you can stay where you are living. I know how important that is to you.

Thinking of you Least and praying your pain lessens
and that you will get x rays to find out what is causing
that pain.

My husband has had extensive back work done with
surgeries and nerve burns in his neck over the years
and still experiences pain depending on the extent of
the work done around our home.

Today he is careful with work and allows time for his
body to heal after each days work or project and visits
his pain doctor once a yr. for follow up visits.

Anyway, I just wanted to send good vibes your way.

went to er but all they did was make me wait a lot and gave me two pills that didn't help and a scrip for norco, which isn't doing much. the pain is unbearable.

the norco seemed to be helping but the pain comes in waves and right now it's unbearable.

It comes and goes and is horrible when i'm having a wave of pain. trying to relax the muscles in my left leg cause i've been tensing up all day. every time it hurts bad, I tense up, which makes it hurt worse.

the norco is really making me feel weird. dopey and woozy and strange. i don't like it.
