First, I want to say thanks to everyone who has walked with me, brought my family food and gift cards, driven me to appointments or babysat me while heavily medicated,and prayed for us! We would have been in a much tougher spot without all of you! Thank you!
Today is my last day of morphine! I am praying that I will not have breakout pain tomorrow or in the days following as I get ready to go back to work and increase my activity level. The nightmares stopped, but I am sure the shaking will continue for a few days as the last of the morphine leaves my system. I treasure the thought of a clear head and the ability to walk a straight line. (I walk like I'm tipsy down the sidewalk, swerving and bumping into my walking buddy.) I do feel a funny spot in my back where I know the disc is still out of place, but I'm praying that the disc will slip back into its rightful home sometime soon.

Terri, I think about you everyday and I am so glad you are well on the road to recovery. In Judaism we have a prayer called a mishaberach which is a prayer for sick people. Stephanie and I say it often. Your blogs are inspirational.
ReplyDeleteLori, I miss you too! Thanks very much for the prayers!
