Thank you so much, Jay, for the kind words! The hardest part in all of
this is resentment, and you know as well as I what that does to people
like us. I don't have that luxury, so I am trying to deal with it.

One day I was fine, getting ready to have my baby, the next I am poked
in the back three times with an epidural and then the symptoms started
to happen quickly. I have no history of any back problems, and so now
I am trying to just stay out of my head long enough to put it all in
perspective.

I have gathered all of my medical notes and labor notes, copied the MRI
pics and feel a little better knowing that the pain is not all in my
head. This really puts a new twist on
"One Day At A Time" huh?!! :) Life is good, and I am truly grateful I
am alive to even feel the pain...there but for the Grace of God go I!

Thanks!
Christine
