Thanks Wendy. I have missed you. How are you and what are your summer plans? How is the education going?
My Rheumatologist turned me over to the spine dr. (pain management) about 3 years ago saying he couldn't do any more for me. (He does treat the Lupus) I got good results from the spine dr. for the first 1 1/2 years and then not so much. I saw him in Jan., Feb. and March. He did MRI's, CT's, x-rays and a Myleogram along with the rhizotomies. He said he couldn't do anything else for me and that he wanted to send me to the Neuro Surgeon so here we are.
I can't walk far at all and get just so bent over and in a lot of pain. It is pretty painful right now because they are having me cut back the pain meds so I can have a better response after surgery.
I get to dreading it and then have a day like today and I will be glad to get it done.
When you have time, I would love to catch up with you what all is going on in your life.
Thanks for the encouragement.

Hi Possi,
I miss you too. When I've finished my degree I should have lots of free time to get back on KA more often.
I posted a brief update on the main forum about my hip injury and hip damage from RA.

Hi possi Good luck next week, I will be thinking of you often as I always do out of concern. I was doing lawn repair and watering today and my thoughts drifted in your direction wondering how you were doing. Hope everything goes as planned and hope the road to recovery is straight and smooth. Fingers crossed and prayers coming your way. 
I can not defeat you but I will not let you win

Oh Magician,
You are so sweet. I appreciate you. I don't know that I am all that brave. I just want to keep moving and get rid of what pain I can
I have missed talking with you. How are you?

Thanks Jeff. I appreciate the thoughts and prayers. I am feeling well covered in prayer and I am happy about that.
How are you doing with your working?
We haven't had to do any watering in a while. We have had tons of rain. We are about 17 inches above normal for the year. It is in the 90's today so watering will be starting (for someone in the family). :o)
I appreciate your friendship.
