OMG! Where to do I start? I can't believe today is a year since the accident! It has been a pretty emotional week for me...all the memories flooding back like it all happened yesterday. It still seems surreal to me to think that this could've (and DID) happen to US!
I am still doing GREAT! Most days I feel 100%, but lately it seems that afternoons seem to effect me the most. I think it's just because I do more than I should during the day, so I feel it later on...nothing Ibuprofen doesn't help. I can't believe I have been off all of my heavy-duty pain medication since MAY! Who'd have thought that 6 months after breaking my back, I would be "pain-free"??? I know I say this over and over again...but I guess I just assumed recovery was going to be a lot "worse" or harder I guess. It hasn't been a walk in the park, of course, but you surely won't hear me complaining...about anything!
I never would've been able to be so positive if it wasn't for all of you...your prayers, thoughts, visits, and meals will never go forgotten. So again, THANK YOU to all of you who showed your support!!!!
I am still scheduled to see Dr. Hynes in January...so there is still the possibility of taking the hardware out. But I am just thankful to be here for the holidays and actually be able to enjoy it, so I am not thinking about January...just yet!
I would love it if you could post a comment at this post...maybe something you felt or thought when you heard about the accident? Or even just a prayer or your thoughts about anything.
Hope you all have a safe and restful Thanksgiving!
