Journey- to- Wellness
Day 7
I think I am going to stop labeling these by Day It was my intention to write everyday Oh well We know how that is
TOday is June 19. It haS been 2 weeks since my Cancer Relay and my body has not recovered yet. I have been in an enourmous amount of pain and it is bringing me down I have trouble even writing this.
I want to keep this blog in the now but I did have sever spine damage 3 years ago and I have never beeen the same. After my first surgery I was better but not completely and as a result of surgery I have nerve damagein my leg and in my bladder. And because of the pain meds it really wrecked my IBS. Anyway 3 surgeries later and I am still in excrutiating pain. I really push myself to get past the pain and go on with my life but sometimes it is really hard. I have had so many different kinds of pain in my life but this one has really destroyed the life I knew and was used to.
I am on a path this summer to repair myself and hop that all works out because if it doesnt I am looking at another surgery whichI dont want but I know it is the answr So I want to prove my doctors wrong.
For the past several months I have been activley doing physical therapy, pilates, qigong,massage, energy healing, aquatic exercise and swimming. In the next month I plan to add rolfing,yoga,intuitive healing, coaching classes,acupuncture and pain management.
My plan is to feel much better and strong by mid October which is the end of the Jewish holidays and I plan to go on a mission to Israel. If I am not well than I cant go and I will have to be gearing up for another surgery.
My last surgery was in April. That was to fix my bladder and the incontinence problem that had developed from the spine surgery. I dont even know if my body can handle a surgery tht soon But I am planning on being well.
So I am trying to live my life as positive as I can,learn from Heather if you know her from her blog, Transendbulimia.
I pray alot and have to believe that I will be well.I read from the scriptures and I feel that God will heal me and not let me down.
I will ask you all to pray for me.
Right now this is what is on my mind and I will work into the story I left behibd and never finished
Please bear with me
In love & health

Karen, you never cease to amaze me - despite all the pain and physical challenges you are facing, you have so much courage and determination! You are so selfless and committed! You are such a beautiful soul!
I do pray for you to get well and find balance.

Hi Karen, I agree with Emily -- I want to stand up and give you a big bravo! I LOVE your goal to prove your doctors wrong -- it is so empowering.
And I also love that you have a mission to Israel as part of your goal. Whan an incredible goal. I will definitely pray for you and include you in my healing meditations each morning. When we all hold an intetion for one another, it becomes even more powerful. Everyone who reads your intetion -- your goal -- gives energy to it happening!
Feel the energy surround you each day -- ours joining with yours. We are all pulling for you!
With love,
Heather
