I'm hanging in there!.. Thank you for your prayers! I'm living on small meals, Vicodin and Phenergan for when the meals don't feel like staying put. (I had a lapse in my pain meds today that just reminded me of how thankful I am for Vicodin! Ha! It's doing such a good job for me that when I'm on it I forget the amount of pain it's masking, but when I forgot to take it this afternoon, all that pain came back. Not fun.) I feel like a little old lady these days. I can walk around the house as long as I tip-toe, but if I put weight on my heels my spine hurts. (And that's WITH the Vicodin!) So I hunch and tip-toe and wear a mask. I'm so sexy. :)
Thank you guys for all your encouraging words and gestures! I feel truly loved and blessed to have such amazing friends and family. Please continue to pray for my sweet Mom as she works so hard trying to take care of Avery and Julia... and me too. She's doing such a great job! I know she must be exhausted beyond words but she's not showing it if she is. Just lift her up if you would... she's the glue holding this house together these days. :)
Hugs to all--
Steph

Hey Stephanie-
I had viral spinal meningitis when I was 12...it wasn't fun. The LP was the worst part b/c they couldn't give me any local anesthetic and just had to get the fluid sample. I'm so sorry you aren't feeling well. I wish there was something we could do to help.
