Ty honeybug I hope you are doing good as well dear friend. I still can’t walk my hip so bad I at wits end as hurts to sit stand walk and my right leg turns right over to the right cause of the pain my pain doc told me. I woke up 2 months ago noticed my hip was hurting as they had taken care of my kidney infection and that pain was gone and now this and I am ok like positive and scared and wonder how much worse I’ll be in the future? One thing after another is going on my body and I still fighting hard, but mentally and physically I’m worn out. Still doing my leg exercise and I found out I can be getting these compression wraps for up to a year 2x a week and some days I get overwhelmed and cry and pray then I feel better. I sit on a stool to do dishes or cook and my hip pain is interfering with my daily routine so I’m improvising my body to its capabilities and so not to injure ourselves and have set backs. Love 💗 you my dear friend and hugs 🤗 prayers your way everyday amen 🙏 🌹💗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰💜💜😇😇😇🙂🙃

Ohhh sweetie I’m sooo sorry that your struggles are so long and hard.

I know that you are doing all you can and your best to carry on.

One thing you should remember that your current condition was over a long period of time so recovery will take time too. For every one day that we’re incapacitated it takes three to recovery. It’s been since 2012 since my downhill spiral started so I have a lengthy trek back up that hill.

The only way I can take that with positivity is to just take it one day at a time. Sometimes it’s hour by hour but baby steps is the key. I don’t look beyond today to the long term goal as it’s like being at the foothills of Mount Everest and knowing your goal is the summit. To look from this perspective it is impossible to a non mountain climbing person. Sooo I choose to take the intimidating trek a few footsteps at a time because I know I can accomplish that. I also remind myself that I’m not on any time schedule...just whatever I can achieve at the time.

Remember slow and steady wins the game like the tortoise and the hare tale.

You’re doing a good job so don’t give up and keep up the good work sweetie.

Take care and God bless you dear.

Love hugs and prayers.

EJ you are such a wonderful inspirational friend honey bug you are a wonderful person in my life I’m blessed to have you and thank you for that heartfelt message you just sent me and I just love what you wrote and it’s so true I actually did climb mountain one time but I almost thought they were gonna have to call an air ambulance to get me out of there laugh out loud but my husband and my one daughter helped me out it was rough and it was bad and my prom started in 1991 first without atrophy and then I am headaches in that and finding out I had a pituitary tumor and it grew to the size of a walnut and then from then on everything went downhill and Up hill like a roller coaster sometimes swirling out of control but you grab the handles and you grab the controls and you control your destiny I know thank you for reminding me of that because sometimes we forget especially when we’re having a bad time or a lot of pain and for all those out there may God bless you and heal you and lessen your pain and may he wrapped his warrants and his spirit around you and I’m blessed to have you as a friend honey bug take care and you have a great day I got a occupational therapy coming in within an hour and hopefully they’ll have a device on my hip. I appreciate you your insight and your friendship. I need bug use keep on smiling I’m smiling now you made me smile today and I thank you for that and I am feeling better I’m just a hard time dealing with the hip pain and stuff you know we’re all going through something here but some of us are on long long journeys. yeah baby steps oh and don’t forget we go to pick a part see if they got new parts for our bodies but , 🤓😎🤩😂😂😂😂😂😂😇I’m afraid they might have run out of our models 😂 💜⭐️⭐️⭐️☀️☀️🤗🤗🤗🤗🙏☀️

Thank you franklin for your kind words sweetie.

I’m happy that I was of help to you. I find when I’m in the throes of suffering I occasionally pray for death to end the agony. So I truly do understand what it feels like being at the bottom of the pit or the end of my rope whatever analogy one wishes to use. I never lose my faith or hope in those horrific times I just want the agony to end.

There is a place called Body’s R Us where we will get our whole new bodies that are flawless and have an eternal warranty but you have to pass through those Pearly Gates to get your replacement. I’m anticipating that day.

Take care sweetie. I pray that He will meet your every need and that you will make a full recovery as soon as possible.

Stay as sweet as you are dear. Thank you for your special friendship sweetie.

Sending you healing hugs 🤗 love 💗 kisses 😘 and prayers 🙏.

Oh honey bug is such a blessing you are such a dear friend and I really value our friendship. You’re a wonderful woman you inspired me I’ve been a little down I’ve been at wits end and for that because sometimes we have to suffer. Not every day will be a good day but will all have a good day and yes we have bad days, only to Look forward at the great days and the precious moments that we make every day. to have a great day everyday, but it’s because I’m in agony with pain in my hip which we don’t know what’s going on it’s really damage from the Ostio so I’m going to get Cortizone shots that my RN requested as her husband has a bad hip too and he gets Cortizone shots and they work for him and I’ve had Cortizone shots in my knees and my ankles and my broken knee, that has broken four times, well the Cortizone just kind lasted so long and then broke apart my knee. However, the hip it’s different and I’m willing to try it it’s painful getting a needle into your joint but they’re very good over here and they give me freezing before they do the actual poke into the joint into the bone or whatever. My spirits are lifted yesterday, but last night I woke up 3 to 4 times in agony as I had my legs wrapped again yesterday but on the left leg, it rubbed the skin off the top of my ankle so I suffered with it all night as well as my hip I can’t even walk in the house as it hurts so bad and yeah like you I do ask the Lord to take me home and I know he will when he’s ready and when that time comes I hope that for all of us while we’re sleeping in peace. But I feel deep in my heart that I’m here for a reason we’re all here for a reason And when it’s our time to go home to the Lord he will call us home. Honeyb you’re a really good person and all your advice and input that you’ve given me I’ve really taken in an absorbed that information and I relate to you so well, like many other’s, but you are a kindred spirit and we can relate. Occupational therapy is going to put in a rack and a pole by my bed to help me get out of bed easy in the mornings and getting into bed at night. They’re putting a bench in the bathroom so I can shower as my legs give out. I also have an occupational therapist physio therapist coming in with my occupational therapist again and they’re going to put me on a backboard as I have degenerative disc disease in my back to see how they can make me more comfortable in my bed because I’ve been laying on my left side for years because I can’t lay on my stomach because of the stomach being wide open and held together only by a thin layer of tissue protecting my internal organs so I can’t lay on my stomach which I So miss and I can’t lay on my right side as it’s very painful and I can’t lay on my back because my spine hurts so bad. so for years I’ve been laying on my left side my left side as both of my shoulders are torn and the bone on my left shoulder is like sticking out my mother had the same thing as she had Ostio too. I am feeling blessed in the Lord is looking after me through the actions of the medical staff that have been really wonderful here helping me helping me at the clinic and my pain doctors work so hard to keep my pain under control but they can only give you so much medicine and I don’t ever want to be comatose then my doctor promised me that would never happen as he is a very good pain doctor and I’ve been seeing him for years and he knows his stuff and he’s wonderful and we pray together and he always looks out for me. My inspiration I get from this support group and from you are very dear and sincere to my heart hugs and prayers are sent your way for every day is a new day. The Lord is watching over you he is protecting you he is giving you the strength to go on even when we think we can’t. His grace and warmth surrounds us even when we think he’s not there as he is as were still here Lord is always there and you’ll he’ll be there rate of the ad and beyond. So I say this prayer to you my good friend you are a blessing and inspirational heart and a strong 💪🏼 Woman like me. I made a joke with my nurse yesterday. I said let’s go to pick a part where they do car parts and see if they got any parts for my body but I said to her unfortunately they don’t because they discontinued my parts and boy did we laugh and laugh over that one while she was wrapping my legs. That made me have a better day. The wonderful care I’ve received from the medical staff is phenomenal. That is self makes a world of difference when they come in there helping you and giving you that extra support needed and most of all their caring and they are very warm hearted individuals. Well you have a wonderful day my dear and I look forward to talking to you again soon God bless amen 🙏 🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😇😇😇🌹⭐️⭐️💗💗🤩👍👍💜💜🤪☀️☀️☀️🙏🙏
