Hello all this is Cindy

Hello all!

This is Cindy as you prolly figured by the title...you guys are SO smart! Good Job! Good English words! Er...sorry. For a minute I thought I was in my P-4 Class.

I have been having a lot of pain. From head to toe my muscles have been on fire, my joints ache, and my foot has been so painfully I can hardly walk. Thursday I broke down in morning devotions and just cried telling everyone how much pain I have been living in over the past three weeks especially. I was gently sent home to rest. That evening Ivan called and asked if I wanted to go to the Chiropractor. I said "heck yeah when!" So we went that night, Emily came along as well to get a massage. I got a massage, it hurt really badly, but I knew that it was needed. Same with the adjustment, it hurt and he hardly did much because it hurt me so badly. Friday was NOT fun. I hurt so much I didn't even want to get out of bed. I got up and took a muscle relaxer and went back to bed (after calling Nancy and telling her I could not come in.) Moving hurt so intensely. So I slept a LOT because of the meds.

This morning I woke up and glory be it didn't hurt to open my eyes! I could get up and walk to the bathroom and not want to cry!!!! It was amazing! I could raise my hands up over my head and not cry out in pain. I could bend down and touch my toes and not want to crumple into a ball and cry. It has been wonderful to feel like myself for the first time in weeks! So I am going back to the Chiropractor on Monday and I know that it will be little steps forward but I again have hope that I will be able to live my life with out constant pain, and being on constant meds everyday all day.

So I am very relieved. I am very happy that I have a faithful God. I will try to writ emore later this week.

Cindy
