Everyday Is Brighter

It’s now been exactly 84 hours since my steroid injections. Overall, I’m a whole new person compared to my previous state. I can sit up myself with no problem. I can now do some stretching exercises. Everyday has been more promising than the day before.

I can tell that due to whatever these shots are masking I’ve got to still be careful. This shot still has a few more days to work even pain. However, overall pain wise I feel as good as I’ve ever felt over the past 8 years.

My nerve pain has stayed completely under control even through this season. The pain in my surgical area is the best it’s ever been since 2015. I’m now only having to use my heating pad on the absolute lowest setting. For me that is 66% lower than has been the case for many months.

All I can say is it’s like being let out of prison. For now, I’m not a captive inside my own body. I can do anything I need to be able to do by myself. I can think, see, and pray with much greater clarity. I’m so thankful for the relief God continues to bringing. Please keep praying I continue to get maximum relief from the shots and for these steroids to help me long as possible. Wherever life finds you there is always hope to be found in Christ.

“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” Psalm 27:1
