i've been to see danny's chiropractor - my chiropractor, now - three times. he has done three very major things.
1. identified the source of the ginormous muscle knot in my back.
2. explained to me how he can undo the damage, and realign me so i can live pain free. (!!!)
3. started a treatment process that is showing results immediately.
i have lived with pain in my back for over ten years. not everyone understand what it's like to live with chronic pain. mostly you learn to cope; but some days are very bad, and you don't ever expect it to end. the thought of the pain ending, forever (with proper follow-up care), really does make me want to cry. but in a good way.
the downside: it's expensive. but isn't everything these days? i'm not even sure we can afford it, but this is one of those things you can't not afford.
october is going to continue to be bumpy. i'm hoping and praying wilford's conference gets funded, because that funding gives me job security through next summer. if it doesn't... well i'll deal with that when it happens. for now, he's committed, and showing no real signs of throwing in the towel.
my cold is getting better. thankfully it never got really messy.
i'm going down to sausalito at 2:00 pm today. i'm hoping i can squeeze some work beyond 30 minutes out of it.
