Ive been on bedrest for the past 4 days. I can only lay in one position for short periods of time. I have 2 bulging discs, a pinched nerve and muscle spasms. I dont know how and when this happened, but it revealed itself on the flight home from London. I dont want to bore you with the details of my pain, I know of many others facing more difficult situtations. But, i would like to share with you some of the light that has brought me comfort from the depths of this piercing pain. I am surrounded by loved ones...my Ellie who reads to me at night when it hurts the most. Todd, who makes me eat fruit to build my immunitiies, covers me in my favorite blanket, and asks repeateldy, Are you okay, honey?. Sophie, who wont leave my side and smothers me with wet kisses whenever she can. My brother, cousins, sister-in-laws, and my dear friends reaching out and checking in. I will be fine, this too shall pass. But in the meantime, thanks for all of the well wishes. Its times like these that I am once again indebted to some very beautiful people who without hesitation, draw open the window blinds, when I struggle to open them myself, to let the sunshine in.
