Pain

Well .... Her pain is back ... With a vengeance. I want to sit and cry, but A is crying plenty for the both of us. Boy does not understand. He tries, gets confused, asks mommy to stop crying, gets no where, but still soldiers on. He's a trooper for sure. Obviously, so is A. I've no idea how she puts up with the pain. It kills me to see her like this. The worst part for me is that I thought we had a solution. But the doctor we consulted with turned out to be less helpful than he first appeared. We have another appt. sometime with yet another doctor. The trial implant worked, we just need to be comfortable with the doctor who performs the surgery AND the office staff in the practice. We were comfortable with the previous doctor (for a time) but less than comfortable with the staff. There was no way, zero, to get through to a person when you called in. That's a deal breaker when you have a device implanted into your body. We wanted more support than that. We were going to investigate this practice, but as soon as A found out the fix was very invasive surgery that included some pins and fusing some vertebrae, she dismissed it. She's no fan of surgery. It was a minor miracle that she was willing to get an implant. Please say a brief prayer that she can get back on her feet soon. thanks.
