Laid Flat On My Back
That's right. For the past two days (with the exception of going to the doctor) I've been at home and resting on my back. Tuesday I got up and during this process a sharp pain jolted through my back which caused me to lay back for a minute. I was able to get up, so I didn't think about and went on to get ready for work. As the day progressed, the pain in my back increased to the point that it was taking my breath away. Kimberly met me for lunch that day and I told her what was going on. I decided that I would go and see a Chiropractor. I could tell you all the exciting and painful things that the doc did, but the short of it is the thoracic region of my spine is out of alignment and it's cutting of a nerve. The analogy the doc gave is like you putting your foot on a water hose and cutting off the supply of water.
God is good and I thank him for my wife. "He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the LORD." I have received so much grace from God in the form of my wife. She has put my shoes and socks on, cooked me dinner and served it, taken me to the doctor, brought me a fruit slushy, made and served me coffee (for those who know Kimberly, this was amazing!), and constantly encouraged me to rest. So, that's what I've been up to since Tuesday, thankful and flat on my back.

praying for you bro - tha really stinks.
Ouch!! Back pain is NO fun!
Very sorry to hear that! Any news on if he should be able to help? I have thoracic issues myself, but nothing that demobilizes me...more like a thorn in the flesh.
Anyway, I'd recommend you check out Smith Spinal Center on Russell - he's great!
Just checking on you...how's your recovery going?
Glad to say, the recovery is over. Thanks for asking.
