am thankful the good Lord sent me to all of you
 

I am thankful that all of you are aware of the daily suffering and stress this causes us all. I am aware that things could be worse....my left arm can do somethings....but of course there are things that only the right can do.....lol ok girls sorry that one was for you or the boys if you take it the other way......clean this up girl.......sorry 130am......

I am thankful to have faith in myself, all of you and that there is a supream being above watching and waiting for the right lessons to be learned........there is a reason for everything I believe that with all my soul.

Have a wonderful day alll will pray for all!!!
love
Victoria and my lil cat Shadow.......:)

Want to say Good morning to my TOS family.. It's been one week today since my spinal surgery and so far everything seems to be healing well of course I won't know how the fusion is healing until they start doing the x-rays..:rolleyes:
I pray everyone has a pain free day..
((Hugs))

Today I .......
 

Today I am thankful for partly cloudy days. The sun has been elusive here lately.... so tired of rain!!!!! Not that I would rather have snow!!:eek:
...
To Dawn I hope your pains levels stay low and you find out that your surgery has been successful!!!!!:D

Today I wish everybody a pain-free day. I also wish that everyone can find joy in one small thing in their life today. Even if you are suffering just one tiny little thing that makes you smile:o I hope you find that!!! My heart goes to you all. Offering support if any need it in the way of articles or anything else I can do. [Thank God for Dragon].

Sincerely,
Victoria:p

Today I
 

got my trial spinal cord stimulator! They were able to get both arms covered from fingers to top of shoulders and both underarms, and a bit of relief in the scap areas as well, so that was a success. It's weird to get "zapped" when I change position, will take getting used to, but supposedly better with permanent implant once it's scarred in place.

I think it's going to work for me, seems to be much less pain in my arms and shoulders!! YEAH!!! My neck is VERY sore tho, had to hang it off the edge of the operating table for entire procedure, over an hour - OW!

Will keep you posted as to how this works for me, get the trial out Mon afternoon - need to take some Tylenol now, then off to my daughter's Homecoming football game, at least for a bit. Taking a nice WARM blanket - brrr, getting chilly out there :(

Wishing a low-pain weekend to all,
beth

Today I..
hope OBT can rescue the lost posts and threads- but I guess we'll know before too long now.

I would hate to have to start all over again- at least all the articles are still safe on the MSN TOS articles site.
Victoria - you should add that info in your sig - like you used to have.

Today I..
 

Just wanted to say Hi to all my TOS family and pray that you all have a low pain night and a goodnights sleep..
((Hugs)) Dawn ;)

None of the document or photo links on the MSN site work. They all come up saying this page cannot be displayed. Any idea why?
Tracy

I'll check at the TOS msn site to see if it works for me.
You might PM gibbrn too and ask -she is one of the founders I think.

I tried to look at some too, pictures as well as documents - I left a message there that we were having problems getting doc & pics to display.

Hi Dawn- I hope you are still doing well.

Mark, haven't heard from you for awhile??
Hope you are OK.
