I have suffered from Chronic Pain for over 20 yrs., and desire to reach those that also feel what I do every day, and those with other hidden illnesses. My spine has severe Thoracic Spinal Stenosis, Osteophytes that are growing daily further into my cord, active herniated discs, and foramens that are closed off, squeezing my exiting nerves. Three huge surgeries, no more! Docs can't do surgery, I wouldn't ever do it again anyway.
I am a now retired nurse that has empathy for all patients, (I was blessed with an overflowing cup of empathy, which was perfect for being a nurse), and especially those that suffer from pain. To live with pain daily takes a certain amount of--well--some unknown strength that even goes beyond spiritual.
Gentle Hugs
