Bonjour my dear Friends 💗
So… guess what!? 😉 hummmm… after losing the use of my arm suddenly a year ago and triggering the urgent spine fusion surgery… and then taking a year to rebuild it… I am now suddenly dealing with what is called a “frozen shoulder” for that same arm… once again greatly limiting my use of it!
I guess “destiny” decided that between my brutally sudden MASSIVE HEART ATTACK.. and the 6 subsequent surgeries following it, it was just… hummmmm… not enough 😉 and it decided to send a little more curve balls my way 😉
A “frozen shoulder”, as I just learned the hard way, and that prevents me to raise my right arm without experiencing quite horrible burning pain, can take up to a year to heal… and sadly prevented to go back to swimming as I so wanted to try to somehow, once again, start to rebuild my SOOOO banged up body! But that it also now going to have to wait… and just like with the endless struggles that destiny has thrown my way over the past 15 years or so, and so much more so during this past year or so since my heart attack, ACCEPTANCE, true, total and serene, will once again by my best friend and source of solace 💗 in dealing with, and handling, that yet again new health struggling journey…
So back once again to PT rehab! lol
First I was going there to recover my left arm from the very painful ICD/DEFIBRILLATOR implanted deep into my chest (with its 2 wires going deep into my heart – or at least the HALF of my heart left since almost 50% of it got irreversibly destroyed (scar tissue) during my massive heart attack) … then it was PT rehab again when I suddenly, within a few hours, totally lost the use of my right arm due to a sudden extreme herniation in my neck (and the Spinal Fusion surgery to fix it) … then now once again, and for the 3rd time, let’s entertain my therapists in rehab for my arm from that FROZEN SHOULDER brand new struggle…
I just got some injections deep into the shoulder joint from my ortho surgeon (not really fun and quite painful… but, of course, NOTHING like the pain of my ICD surgery or my kidney stone surgery, both of which created excruciatingly painful recoveries! 😔 ) .. hopefully these injections will help some…
Anyways… I am still endlessly GRATEFUL for all the magical miraculous joints and organs and tissues and veins and arteries and a million little working pieces 😉 in my body that STILL do work amazingly well! 💗 at least for today right!? 😉 … and please never for an instant forget to fill your soul and mind and heart with ENDLESS GRATEFULNESS that ALL, or MOST of YOUR little magical working parts in YOUR AMAZING BODY DO work amazingly well!!!!
Such endless gratefulness to have in each and everyone of our days 💗
With much MUCH love to YOU 💗
