My journey with scoliosis

Don’T Give Up

So my hands are hurting today more bilaterally I think from the surgery. They were both numb prior to my decompression, but now they are rebounding from the decompression. When
I spoke to the nurse she seemed to agree that this what was happening along with my spiked blood pressure. “Cindy, things will get worse before they are going to get better.” This statement is the whole foundation of how I’m healing.

So please forgive me for the short blog today. There are so many things I need to write about, learn about, heal from and grow from in this blog. I can’t wait for each and every one of you to share with me, so I can heal, also. It’s like a symbiotic relationship.

Wherever you are, wherever you go….please know that there are people just like you and I who are struggling, but continuing and pushing forward to grow.

Today I choose Courageous…….

    Cindy, OMGosh I don’t know where to begin? But let me say, thank you for your blog I do feel so alone, embarrassed about my physical appearance, the pain, and the depression seems sometimes intolerable. Let me correct that, it’s intolerable most of the time. I’ve had to change my entire wardrobe I can no longer wear the tight fitting cute clothes l that I use to wear. I have now increased my size from a small to a large and only wear loose fitting clothes that hide my body. I have so much I want to share with you, you are not alone. You help me to feel that I am not alone. Thank you so much for your blog and your journey.. so many nights I have sat alone and tears run down my cheeks not that I feel sorry for myself but it feels like even my family has turned their back on me when I need them the most! When I went to the specialist for the first time and the only time so far, the only thing that they said to me was surgery or no surgery, no other options were offered to me. No consultation nothing our meeting lasted about 2 minutes. I have so much more to share with you. Yet, I am afraid to bare myself on the truth of it.

      Amy, you just made my day! Thank you! It’s hard to know if I’m blogging the right way. These are experiences, not a chronological format. I’m hoping I can touch at least one person to let them know they are not alone…..and then grow and heal.
