Out of energy-full of pain

April 21, 2006

Hi all to those of you who were asking about busy days and ending up

out of strength to do anymore afterwards. I just took a short trip

out of town. Just going thru the airport and getting there wore me

out. I got to get out a little each day but as the trip went on my

days got shorter and shorter, my nites got longer and more painful.

The day I came home I got stuck in the airport for over 5 hrs and

then had to practically run to the gate to catch my flight, then a

guy cut me off right at the gate rushing to get there himself, hit

my cane with his bag and almost knocked me down. I wanted to take my

cane and smack him over the head. I was sore and hurting like heck

by the time I got on the plane and even worse that nite and the next

day. Today I can barely walk at all, so yes doing more does wear me

out totally. But it was worth it for the few hours I got to enjoy

being lazy and out doing things I never get to do anymore. Luckily I

had a wonderful friend with me who helped me out alot when I ran out

of gas or got to hurting tooo much. One day I woke up and it felt

like fireworks going off in my sciatic nerve from my back to my foot

all over the place for over 30 min, was NOT fun at all thank heavens

it finally stopped. Also this trip showed me something else, how I

need to have this next surgery to try and get rid of this pain that

is increasing daily and pray that it will go away. Even at home I

can never go anywhere for most of the day running around without

payinig for it later in spades. The cost of a few hours of enjoyment

is days worth of increased pain I guess. Sometimes it worth it

sometimes its not, everyone can only decide for themselves. Anyway

nice to be home again with all my babies (animals). Hope everyone is

having as painfree day as possible. Sharon Group Owner
