<DIV> I just wanted to say THANK YOU to all the DROOLER'S
who have sent me letters of encouragement the last couple
days. They have helped me feel better as I am on a real PITY
PARTY roll here . I guess it boils down to being stuck in a bad situation
that I have little or no control of right now and I hate that feeling ! The
medrol ( cortisone shot ) didn't help at all, not even a little bit and the
therapy today seemed to intensify the pain JOY !!!!!The therapist said it
would probably get much worse before it gets better, You have
no idea how close I came to wanting to end her life ! GRRRR
%#&*# , My poor husband was at his wits end
trying to help me this morning deal with the pain, he finally managed to get me
to his recliner with the heating pad, three pain pills and a hot cup of coffee
and WHAM !!!!! Annie jumps up into my lap ! that was such a tremendous
help !</DIV>
<DIV>thank god no one wore the hot coffee.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you again for your letters </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Love to all</DIV>
