The End of the Year
Hello, friends!
I had planned on ending the blog's year on a high note, going over a review of the high and low points of the year. I even assembled a photographic journey of my own physical metamorphosis throughout the year, which you can see on my photo page.
However, I am actually ending the year on somewhat of a downer -- the spinal pain has just simply spiraled out of control. I am working diligently to get an appointment with the neurosurgeon in Nashville to see if anything can be done to fix the problem. At this point, I would settle for just proper alleviation of the pain for a little while. Records have been faxed back and forth, and now I am waiting to hear from them at the first of next week. In the meantime, I am hunkered down here in my chair, trying to coax myself from one day into the next one.
So, instead of a full-blown celebration of the new year, I offer a simple toast: here's to the people who make my life worth living, my fight worthwhile, and the future worth facing -- come what may. I love all of you very much, and I dream of better days in 2009 for all of us.

Insist on proper pain meds. There is no reason to be in pain in this day and age. It is also psychologically damaging which then delays healing. Tell them that.
Sorry to hear about this. Things will get better and hope your new year is filled with love and much joy. Yes there will be pain, physical and mental, but we all go through that in one form or another. You're not alone.
Many prayers.
