Thank You My Dear Bloggy Friends

Hello dear friends~ I thought I would update you on what has been going on in my life since my last blog post.


But before I do that, I want to thank you all for your lovely comments and well wishes. You have touched my heart and I am very blessed to call you my friends!

Last weekend, I took a little ride in the ambulance to the ER. As some of you know, I have been having excruciating pain in my lower back for several weeks now and by the end of last week, I could not walk.

They suspect I have a herniated disk and I had an MRI this past week. Still waiting for the results and meanwhile, I am taking very potent meds for the pain. These meds are helping control the pain but they also make me very sleepy. So I've been resting a lot these days. Hubby took a couple days off work to be my 'nurse' and he also got me a walker so I can get around a little better now.

For my tea party friends, I have a tea party post already to go on Monday morning which I have been working on most of the week.

Thank you all for your love and your prayers. You all mean so much to me. Have a wonderful weekend and God bless!

Sharing from my heart~ Sandi

    Good to hear you are on the mend, Sandi. I don't think there is anything more debilitating than back issues. I look forward to your next post. Hugs, Deb

    I hope the results will give you an idea of what's wrong with your back. Being in constant pain is tiring and really gets on your nerves. I will keep you in my thoughts, hoping for better days for you.
    I almost forgot! Your teacups are lovely!

    Sandi, I am so sorry to hear about your painful back. I know something about that but not to your extent. It can't be fun and I wish for you to get better soon. Take care and don't overdo, or worry about extra things. They will all take care of themselves and it is only important that you get to feeling better..Take care, Judy

    Hello Sandi
    Back issues like that are definitely not fun and it's reassuring to hear you have taken measures and are receiving proper treatment. Bless your hubby for nursing you too.
    I took the opportunity to pass on a tea post as I have come down with a nasty cold for the 3rd time in 2 months. I'll work on something myself to join you again next week.
    Take care,
    Judith

    Oh my dear Sandi,

    My heart goes out to you and prayers are with you! A herniated disk is excruciatingly painful.

    Do continue to take it easy and to recover, be comforted and heal by the grace of God. It is surely no fun being in pain... Indeed if you are feeling up to doing so dear lady, then I'll happily see you Monday Sandi as well along with your other very dear blog friends.

    I adore you charmingly pretty pink teacup tower, artistry. So lovely as always.

    Hugs, blessings and cheers from Wanda Lee

    Sandi,I know exactly how you are feeling. I have had the very same thing,and trust me it does heal. Our bodies are amazing how they can heal themselves. I had a cortisone epidural which assisted in the healing process and pain. While I did have nerve damage in my leg and foot. It is no problem at all now. Hope you will feel better soon. x
