Well, Sunday is here and all is well. I went to bed last night WITHOUT taking my Imitrex for a headache to see how things would do. I did not sleep real good, but made it through the night without getting a headache. This is great news for me. I woke up still and sore, but I am starting to get used to this feeling. I am not sure if rehab exercises started any of this or it's just my body adjusting to this new life style. I am not sure which way to go with myself. Friday, they did not do much in rehab except heat and stretching muscles, so I can't see how this did that much towards the pain.
I get all kinds of notes from people. This is always good. I heard from many people that tell me I am doing good, but my body tells me different. I ran into a guy from work on Friday night and it was good to see him. Then, I get all kinds of notes sent to me. I am still here and still trying to make progress toward where I need to be. It seems like the progress is slower than what I want, but I knew that would happen. My family and friends seem to be supportive on where I am and the direction I am going, so this is a good feeling to have. I need to be thankful for the things that are most important. I am alive and well, moving in the direction of where I need my body to be in. I will just have to learn to be patient will the slow progress I am making and take advantage of the little steps that I am taking. Hopefully, the plastic surgeon will give some news tomorrow that will be good to hear. My surgery to remove this metal plate in my back will be two weeks away come tomorrow. I am really looking forward to this move and hope to be ready when it finally gets here.
I appreciate everyone that takes time to read my notes about my progress and to those that say a prayer for me because those make a big difference in my life! I love you all so very much.
