    So happy you are feeling better. Neck problems can be big problems, but more on this on my next post.

    I'm sorry for my late response guys-:emb:
    Mom and Dad got back on the road at 1 pm yesterday. A local shop took the boat trailer in at the close of business on Tuesday and promised it would be their first priority yesterday morning.
    They replaced the hub, new bearing, cleaned up and repacked the other bearing(don't know why Mom and Dad didn't insist on 2 NEW ones). My mom said the repair shop folks where super nice, so she wrote up a glowing review to AAA!
    They should be back to VA tonight, after a layover in Savannah last night.
    When I get the "We're home" phone call, I'll post that!
    Thanks for the prayers and concerns y'all:thumbs:
    :)

    It is time for some more great, well, even fantastic news.

    Most know of some of my physical problems so now let me add that most of my life I have suffered with headaches and most of them get quite severe. We've tried umteen things and treatments and diets and whatnot. All in vain. Of course, if one looks at pictures of my spine, they aren't pretty. The back problems have been terrible since 1984 due to an injury but, headaches really can take you out of commission fast.

    In preparation for some shots in my back and then my neck I've had to mostly knock off on several medications so the headaches in the last month were downright awful. Then came last Wednesday when they did the shots in my neck.

    It has now been over a week and I have had not even one headache!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To me this is nothing short of a miracle. We've tried to nail it down just how long it has been (we started doing this on the 3rd day!) since I went this long without a headache. The nearest we can come is back in 1947. Yes, that was a long time ago and just happened to be the same year that I came down with polio. Count the years folks! That is a lot of headaches and I'm sure you can understand our happiness.

    Do you believe in miracles? I do!

    Wasn't on y-day at all so praying for the final stretch home for Eric's parents and praise God for no headaches for Sav.

    *****
    I'm back to more back troubles but in a new spot that I have never had before. Right side lower just over my hip and gets to throbbing down my leg when I stand up straight. Worst pain by far that I have ever had, can take my breath away. Only thing I can come up with of a cause is riding the mower first time this year then lugging my Dad around on Easter out of his wheelchair a few times. I have worked all week but it has been a STRUGGLE to say the least.

    Mom and dad got home 15 minutes ago. Got in the door and called directly.
    Smooth sailing, no troubles, but their phone and Internet is screwy at the house, so I was a little concerned when my cell rang, and the ID showed "Dad's Cell!"
    So very thankful for our merciful Lord and everyone here:) Prayers were answered!
    Now, Locust Post you have definitely aggravated something.

    Prayers being sent!
    Please SLOOOOOW down a bit, brother and rest that back! :D

    Sorry, I'm late on this thread but I'll just say this; Prior to me closing my eyes for the evening, I ask God for peace and compassion for "Everyone" here on our forum family! :). All of you are special folks and I consider you all my extended family so If I happen to miss a thread or such, just know my prayers are with each and every one of you, "every day"! And, I "NEVER" leave out our furry friends!:cool:

    That is not good news at all. Even if it were caused by being on the mower, it should not be that severe. Get it checked out by someone!!! In the meantime, we'll pray.

    Just got MRI results today, minor herniation of disc, narrowing causing disc pressure, bulge and inflammation. Also spurs and SI joint slightly out of alignment, along with arthritis. Will be going daily for decompression, realignment and strengthening. I need prayer for patience and pain please.
