Hi Special Family and Friends,
It's hard to believe it's been almost a month since I posted. I really wanted to wait.... praying to have some better news.
I have to confess I was really discouraged for almost a week after the injections in my spine....no relief at all.....until I think on the 6th day I woke up that morning and the pain in my back was gone. THANK YOU LORD....it has not returned at all!!
The 4 hr. trip (down and back) to south Denver for therapy is slowly helping....I think.
I have some days that are some better and then some days that aren't....but I'm thankful for any change for the better. I think she has magic hands....and the EASY exercises I'm doing to strengthen my shoulders is helping also.
I'm scheduled for a weekly trip until we leave here in Oct. Looking forward to less pain.....and hoping time will make it something I can handle.
I never feel I have the right words to express how much you each have meant to me an my family on this journey. I only pray that God can use me as an instrument of encouragement and comfort to others that He puts in my life that walk on similar paths of illness or struggles.
As I reflect on this past year, I can hardly believe the events that happened......yet the ONE VIVID THOUGHT that keeps returning is....our God is FAITHFUL! His mercies and grace overwhelm me. To God be the glory!!
I know that many of you reading this know exactly what I'm trying to express.....because you have experienced this in your life also. I pray that no matter what is right now... or may happen... in your life, that you too will experience His love for you and know and remember that He is indeed walking with His arm around you too. All we have to do is "ASK" Him!
Truly With God's Blessings,
Donna
"Come and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what He has done for me." Psalm 66:16 (My hearts desire for the rest of my life...that God will give me opportunities to share Him with those I meet.)

Dear Donna,
I'm praising God with you for some blessed relief. May He continue to use you as an instrument of encouragement to others. You're such a sweet encouragement to me!
Love you dear one!

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Proverbs 3:3-4
Hi Donna!
I'm so happy to hear that the pain in your back has left you, my dear! Cortisone shots take a while to kick in. Hang in there!
Shalom~
