*Semi long post alert* Most of you dont know this about me and thought I would share in case you have a similar story. About six years or so ago I was told I had degenerative disc disease, arthritis of the spine, and bulging discs. I went from being a fit and active person to a girl in extreme pain that led to hardly any exercise which increased weight gain and then came along depression. I felt hopeless. One day I decided I wasnt going to let the pain stop me. Ive done water therapy and numerous workout programs and have been quite successful. The pain is still there but I wont stop! Ive come so far! Today I went to a new Dr. and she gave me hope. Several tests were done and x-rays taken. She then proceeded to tell me that I have the spine of a 70 year old. Im only 35. But she did tell me that my goal of hiking the Grand Canyon is possible. Tomorrow I go back to get my test results and plan of action. My point is no matter what obstacle you may think is in your way anything is possible. Never give up!
