Hello,
I thought I would give an update on Me. ;) As many of you know I have had neck and shoulder problems for a longtime, which has caused me a lot of soreness and neck cracking. I have also had pinched nerves causing my hands to go numb. Well I have been seeing and orthepedic and been going through physical therapy several times a week. Well this past monday I had spinal injections in my neck which are used to shrink the nerves in the spinal cord so that they don't get pinched. They insert an epidoral needle into your spine and then use that hole to inject you with steriods from another needle. Besides a little soreness in my neck from being punctured I am very happy to say that all of the pain has gone away. I haven't gone without neck pain since high school when I hurt it weight lifting but now it is gone!!! This is very happy. Hopefully by continuing physical therapy and proper stretching and lifting techniques the pain won't return.

It is amazing how well lit has worked! We have been very blessed. Layne has full motion of his neck without any pain. I am very grateful for modern medicine!!
Layne, I had no idea you suffered so. I don't think Lewis and I were aware of your condition. I am so happy that you have found something effective and are pain free! You must feel re-born almost. What a wonderful blessing. We will pray for your continued good health.
Waahooo! That is so great Layne. Good job being brave enough to have that done. Did that fix the numbness in your hands as well?
So glad to hear that the injections had the desired result. We are grateful for modern medicine, too, but especially for Jen, your wife and nurse.
Thanks!
Wow nice car. so how fast does it go. or how fast do you make it go?
