I'm so tired of trying. I had knee replacement in September and because of 5 prior surgeries, healing has been slow and I have to use a splint 3 hours a day forcing my muscles to stretch. I'm on the third month of this and it causes so much added pain to my spinal and neck injuries. I shattered the lower part of my spine and fractured my neck many years ago leaving me with nerve damage and constant pain. Then I broke two teeth in January just a coincidence because I haven't had any dental problems in years. The dentist slipped with the tool that grinds down the crowns and cut the inside of my mouth at the right corner. It was so bad it bled for three days. I'm sure my husband loved it because I couldn't talk or my mouth would bleed. I had to use teabags to get it to stop, and even now that area is sensitive, last week after a lab visit I started breaking out with sores turning to ulcers. My doctor told me yesterday that I have MRSA.
I'm fighting a battle against my prior employer and now we are finally negotiating because they don't want any bad publicity. So it's been crazy over these last months. My t-doc says I have so much going on right now that he just wants me to write out all my emotions and not focus on any thing else right now.
I am in so much pain, sick from the antibiotics, and so tired from not being able to sleep because of the nightmares. I don't know what I am trying to say. Sorry, I don't mean to whine. Guess I just am not feeling well and just really down.

Here is my new brother, copper :) He's so tiny! Moo and Tuck were ok with him on first meeting. Rocket due to his severe aggression will never meet Cooper.

Keep venting, Secouya. **Just** let the emotions flow. I believe emotions make more sense when I let them run like a babbling brook, as they will, where they will. I also believe Nature intended emotions to do precisely that. Logic and self-control happen in a different brain center, altogether.
Listening. . .
Praying for you that God will surround you with His peace and strength you need each day.
Peace and blessings.
