Sharon,

Wow I’m exhausted just hearing about that. I’d be in bed for days. You are amazing. Your travels sound so amazing. 

Im doing well since the surgery to remove the mass of scar tissue from between my tailbone and bladder. The mass was as big as my bladder. It has totally removed the feeling of pressure and that horrible constant pain. There is still pain higher up but Dr.Jacobson said I can expect pain from the surgery for three more months. And if it still hurts he can go back in and remove more scar tissue higher up. I’m still in constant pain but in the morning the pain level is so low and instead of going back to bed at 2:00 in the afternoon I’m up til 5:30 or 6:00. The pain use to stay at a ten and now at the worse it’s never more than an eight and that’s not until evening. I’m so grateful to Dr.Schiller who did my BCIR for finding Dr.Jacobson who was willing to help me. I had to travel to another city but man was it worth it. To help my husband grasp the difference in the pain level I told him it’s like having your tongue slowly sawed off to now having a large needle being pulled through or instead of having your foot chopped off it’s just stuck in a vice. While the lesser examples are less painful they are still very unpleasant but I’m grateful for the improvement. 
Im so glad you were able to do what you love. I hope your next adventure is amazing.

Robin
