What a vision I am these days. Paul laughs at me. Most evenings I can barely walk because I have been on my feet most of the day. I am in physical therapy three days a week for that. Before I go to bed, I have to put on these cast like splints. Oh joy! By four am, off they go. The right one pushes pressure on my ankle bone and so far, they haven't been able to fix that. So it's been three weeks, nearly. And now in the morning I have a little less pain when I get up, but my left ankle clicks as I walk. And that doesn't feel too good either. I could get frustrated, but the PT people remind me to be patient.
This week I have a new gadget attached to me. It's a halter monitor. I get to take it off today, halleluiah! I have sensitive skin cause I'm a redhead and so the sticky lead pads are very itchy and irritating. Oh, the things we take for granted! One o'clock can't come soon enough!
And then there is this new pain in the neck. Literally. I don't know what the deal is, but my neck is just killing me! It's not relieved in lying down, stretching, nothing. So at 36, I'm feeling like I am falling apart! This too shall pass, I know. I can't wait till the simple days are back, when I can go for a walk with the kids without pain in my feet, when I can race Tayton to the house, sleep without out anything attached to me, and try...try to not take it all for granted again!

What can I say,other than to keep trusting.It seems you have had so much to contend with for some time now.I know sometimes it seems useless to keep trusting but we must remember that satan wants us to doubt and give up but that is giving him the victory and I for one am just too stubborn to allow him that.I knew about the monitor but not the problem with your feet and neck.I am sure you have many who pray for you and so do I.I have several unanswered prayers No, not unanswered maybe just 'wait' He may have something better.So hang in there dear girl
