What can I say, Gerry? I have had health reverses this year too – needing hospitalisation, a heart pacemaker implant and now lifelong Rivaroxaban – an anticoagulant. But now I have no pain, other than the pain of not having the power to end the pain of yourself and some others I know. All I can do is beat daily on that door of mercy – on your behalf. And so I will! Please God have mercy on this good man, helping him to feel only the warmth of your love.

I admire your strength. You are not alone I am also suffering from chronic back pain.I’ve had multiple spine surgeries and procedures. Its so weird when I write it and look back. It’s a completely different life when you live in chronic pain. Hard to recognize the life we once had. I wish there was a way to end pain but we must stay positive and not let it defeat us. Please join my support group on facebook if you have it. It’s called Spine Spirit. I look forward to getting to know you and supporting each other through our back pain.
