Frustration is still the most challenging part of the whole surgery. I have learned to live with the pain, medicate the pain or just ignore it. I have learned how to move without irritating the staples. Yet I still can't walk normally, I can't reach to the top shelf and most of all I cannot stoop and reach in any direction. That is the most frustrating part of the whole healing process.
I can feel the soreness of where the bone was cut and the titanium rod that is holding my pelvic bones together. I know it will all pass eventually and hopefully the AS pain will be improved...unfortunately there isn't a surgery to fix AS completely.
Being thankful for each day and having faith in a God that controls all things and answers prayers...Faith is being sure of what you hope for and certain of what you do not see. Hebrews 11:1
One day at a time...
I serve a powerful God that continuously pours out his blessings, for that I rejoice. And I am so richly blessed. I also carry in this earthly body, a disease for which He has not revealed the cure. I am living with a progressive form of rheumatoid arthritis called ankylosing spondylitis, this blog is a record of the everyday struggles and triumphs of this life altering disease. I try to remain faithful and give thanks to a God that gives me each new day. This is about my journey and taking it one day at a time...
