Oh thank you all for reaching out on this thread and through PM's it truly touched my heart. <3 <3

I've been away mostly trying to really focus on my daily regime. Pain has been exquisitely high as our temperatures keep dropping (22° right now) and it has almost completely engulfed my opposite leg. I don't have to explain to any of you how scary that is.. but that is why I have been silent. Due to the location of nerve damage and where CRPS II was initiated (in my groin crease or where the hip/thigh bend) makes sitting very difficult so I haven't been at my computer much these days

We also have family coming into town and a big gathering at my house on Sunday... we have all been there.. people assume that we are "home" so we should be the ones preparing the feast and being the host, ugh. I am happy to do it but, as you all know well it does add additional anxiety and pain to our lives that others just don't understand. So.. I am trying my hardest not to let pain/anxiety override the joy I will have in seeing all our family together after such a long time.

Thank you all again for reaching out.. I am okay

Wishing you all a tolerable day, sprinkled with moments of happiness that make you forget all about CRPS even if for only a minute.
