Can you believe it?  It is actually Friday and I am posting.  Too bad work, therapy, being sick, and prolotherapy pretty much cover my week.  I’ll try my best to think outside of the box…

1.  Medical Stuff:

• 3 Days of Home Rehab.
• 1 Day of PT.  I was on the Reformer for most of the session.
• I went to Urgent Care on Sunday.  I ended up having an ear infection, sinus infection, and fever.  Thank God for antibiotics, and that my heart rate and blood pressure decided to check out “normalish” at the appointment.
• I had my eighth round of prolotherapy today in Mishawaka.  I’m hurtin’ now, but “this too shall pass.” More on my appointment soon.

Today, as fall starts, I am…

wearing:  Soft, soft clothes because of prolotherapy.  Black yoga capris, an Old Navy T-shirt, and a long sleeve “Life is Good” shirt over top of the t-shirt. 

I was excited to login to my blog, and see a personal note from Dr. Driscoll herself about the progress, and developments of her research.  Dr. Driscoll is a zebra herself who devotes so much of her time advocating for, and researching various diseases and the possible connections between the diseases of Multiple Sclerosis, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, POTS, and CCSVI, to name a few… 

A few weeks ago, my roommate and teammate from college sent me a Facebook message.  At the time she was 9 months pregnant, and still working as a nurse, which makes the fact that she took the time out of her life to write me such a special letter even more meaningful

(Sidenote: She had her baby TODAY! Congrats, Dana and John!) 

This survey has been circulating around FB and the Blogosphere…So in honor of promoting Invisible Illness Awareness I, too, am jumping on the bandwagon.
