Pain

I woke up this morning just like any other morning. I got dressed (actually I got dressed ready to go to the gym)! I got the kids fed and then I started to get this pain in my neck. I got Kiera dressed and by the time I got that done the pain was so bad I couldn't even get Lathen dressed. My neck hurt so bad that I couldn't move it anymore and the slightest movement sent horrible pain from my neck out! I had to hold my neck just to try and walk. I called Kevin in tears. He rushed home got Lathen dressed and we were off to the chiropractor. Two hours later I left feeling about 1% better. They massages it, did electrolysis, and two different guys adjusted it with no luck. I got home, took some pain reliever and laid down. Kevin took care of the kids. I woke up still in a lot of pain. Kevin called Joe and he came over and they gave me a blessing. Joe gave me his thoughts on it (as he is in medical school). Then Stewart came over, gave me his run down (he is a third year med student). He also did some moving of my neck and stretching it.
So after a total of 4 doctors I am still in pain! I have high hopes though that I will be feeling better soon. Kevin is taking such good care of me, I couldn't ask for a better husband. He's bought me ice packs, heating packs, pain reliever, took care of the kids and done everything I've needed (including putting my socks on my feet)! He has been such a help and is taking good care of me!
Thank you everyone for taking time to work on my neck and help me get better. I really appreciated the care I received. You are all great men!
