Day 236 - Monday August 6, 2012

Bridgett's neck continues to hurt and I think I will see if Sara Marie can possibly see her sooner than Thursday. Her pain level has been up as high as 6 and that is not good. She is back to using the rice bag several times a day. It has been three weeks since Bridgett had acupuncture. Sara recommended that we see her every two weeks, but we had to cancel an appointment and now I couldn't get one until Tuesday or Thursday. Tuesday is when she sees Brian Miller and he will massage it. Sara originally told me not to schedule on a day she sees Brian. Sara Marie only works on Tuesdays and Thursdays but I will leave a message and hope to hear from her soon.  Recently someone gave me a hug and said they just didn't know what to say and they were so sorry for us and for what has happened.  I appreciated this sentiment but I want to say....don't feel sorry for us, don't pity us or Bridgett, just see the wonderful healing taking place and know that she is indeed a miracle and that we are blessed to be part of this wonderful miracle daily.  Please know that I focus on her healing and I don't take time really ever to have a "pity party" or to wonder why.  I focus instead on the marvelous blessing that Bridgett survived this terrible wreck that by all accounts should have killed her.  I focus on the marvelous, miraculous way she is healing and the hope for her future life ahead.  I focus on the great love God has for all of us and the wonderful ways He blesses us. Hopefully we always provide a positive atmosphere for Bridgett's healing and support her in the way the Lord would have us do.  I do pray for guidance and direction daily to be the best help for her that I can be.
