Its odd in a way- but I couldn't focus on reading, or watching tv, or wanting to talk to anyone- the only thing that is on your mind is the pain. So I've conceded to using pain meds, and will have a better plan after I see Dr. P. You're right- I will try next time to ask for prayer as it truly has seen me through so much!

Your boys - oh, you must be so proud of them. Young men. :) Your words are so full of insight, wisdom and such love. It just resonates from you onto the page. I don't understand how you can bring so much to others when you're feeling so much pain. I don't get it. But you do, and I pray that you get relief from this pain. Wish I could do something more, but I will pray for you.

If you look up what each of your medications depletes from your body, including Advil, replacing those vital nutrients might help you to feel better.

I hope that whatever is causing that pain will be diagnosed and fixed (yesterday. )<br />You have a beautiful family.

What a brutal pain you had in your shoulder. I am so sorry. I just know that Dr. P may have some idea of what is going on. As always, you are in my prayers! And those pictures...I am smitten with them all. I especially love the one where Nolan has you wrapped in his arms. And Colton...oh my, how he has grown. I love the smores shots, a perfect reminder of summer fun. <br /><br />I love you, Vicky Held Westra, my dear soul sis, and I so appreciate how honest and transparent your words are!

You're entitled to that, but I wish I had known so I could've prayed. I hope there are those you text with a word or two so that you know you're not struggling alone. Hugs and prayers. The pictures are fantastic, esp the one of you and Rick.
