Jonathan hi it's Marci from facebook. Glad you found us. I hope that you'll share with the group some of your own personal experiences.

LOL I just noticed you've been on DS over a year. I thought you were new. How long have you had the podcast for pain? I'll check it out.

Seven and a half years ago out of the blue, I had major pain on the side of my brain. I have spent ever since going through surgeries, procedures, doctors and anything else you can imagine. I take 28 pills plus vitamins evey day just to stay alive. However, I use what I have to help others and have made it a mission in life to use what I have left in this life to help others. A year ago in February I was in the hospital and thought it was the end. Through some help of a dear friend I learned martial arts, then all sorts of other things to keep motivated to live. I started running last winter and I couldnt walk a couple of blocks. I finish a half marathon about three weeks ago. 13.1 miles. I started this podcast and website when I started making progress so I could share with others. It has grown and I work to help as many as I can. I still have the same pain but I keep working to move forward. Train,survive,encourage is my motto and I ask people to join me and share this experience. Thanks for talking with me and I hope you will stay with me so we can work together. I read the boards everyday and have for a long time. I look at two groups, chronic pain and bipolar. I comment occasionally but I add many to the pray list from the groups. I hope to get to know you. Let me know if I can help.

Hi Jonathan,
Kate is having a really hard time right now. She could use some prayers. Please include her if you can.
Thanks,
Ama

I will add her tomorrow. I am sorry for her difficulty. I pray that Things get better quickly. Jonathan.
Train, Survive, Encourage
