Blog: 40 Days To Life
Its been nearly two weeks since I started this journal. I had really hoped that by this time I'd be making glowing reports about feeling less pain and beginning to walk on my own. Today, the opposite is true. I woke up in excruciating pain this morning and it has not abated at all. My walking is very bad and I must lean on the cane all hunched over to keep my balance. I admit I have thought about throwing in the towel and a calling a surgeon for evaluation, but for now it still seems wrong. Its hard to explain, but every time I give serious thought to surgery it like my whole being screams "NO". And yet, I don't know how much longer I can deal with this level of pain. Thankfully, I will be getting a decent tax refund, so I can continue medical leave for a couple of more weeks, but its going to be rough. What really scares me is what if I can't return to work? I know, I know, more worrying and negative emotions. That is one thing that is plaguing me, when I'm in pain I get scared and depressed and discouraged. I've tried doing affirmations, chanting, laying on of hands, EFT and other forms of positive energy, but I can't overcome the bad feelings. How can I heal if my mind is unreceptive? This is so hard and I'm so discouraged.
I have a therapy appointment late this afternoon, maybe that will help and help adjust my attitude. Hopefully, a cheerier message tonight.

Sometimes just when things seem like they will never get better, they do! I can't make many suggestions right now because first I need to read all of your blog entries so I will understand better just what is causing your pain and also what you have been doing in re diet.
I certainly used to get a lot of pain in my legs and feet and also got them so bad in my shoulder I could not move my arm and would be in pain 24/7. The raw diet helps me with all of these things, but what really helped me a lot also was Flatto's book, "Miracle Exercises That Can Save Your Life." I have only done a couple of the exercises in his book, but one in particular is an overall one that I think helped me get my body aligned back where it should be. It's where you walk on all fours like a primate -- even just not "walking" but getting in that position and swaying forward and backwards a few times a day. It really helped me a lot! You can read about his book at:

Also, I have a lot still to learn about calcium, but some claim they have had bad pains in their bones and joints due to calcium deficiency. That might be another area for you to look at.
But I will shut up now except to say I'll be sending you good vibes for FEELING BETTER FAST.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
