Making new friends…..

I never realized how many people like me there were out there. Years ago, I would search and find no one going through what I was.  I felt so alone and didn’t have anyone other than my husband to talk to about it and even then, I would be embarrassed and not want him to “examine” my back. Sure, my closest friends knew, but not really to the extent of how awful it actually was.  Over the last few days looking at the pictures I posted, to me they don’t really do my back justice because I feel like in person, its a whole other level of “scary”. Maybe I am just so used to seeing these pictures, that it just doesn’t look as “scary” as it is? Just thinking out loud here…. scoliosis

Today was an emotional day….

I would like to put one hundred sad face emojis on this post…..Today was just a very emotional day for me. My back didn’t hurt any worse than normal but I had some sad moments.

What a week….and it’s only Wednesday!

After getting over  a horrible cold that made its way through all 6 of us, including double ear infections for Nicky, my 14 month old,  Will, my 3 year old, came down with pneumonia as well as an ear infection and possibly RSV. When he was 7 weeks old, he was hospitalized for 8 days with RSV. It was one of the scariest moments of my life. And ever since then when he is sick, we get very nervous. So, not good news today at the Drs.

Lidocaine is crap (Scoliosis)

Wow….a month has gone by since my initial post. I don’t get as much time as I would like to write on the blog. Juggling 4 kids, a business, and a husband who works long hours etc, my hands are always full.
