GOOD NEWS!

We visited the pain clinic and she was happy with Jim's progress and instead of going every month, we will now go every 2 months.  She went ahead and gave us prescriptions for his pain medicines.  We left there and went to IHOP for breakfast to celebrate.

Then at 1 pm, we went to see his primary care physician and he too, was pleased with the progress in strength and attitude.  The anti-depressant medicine is obviously working, so he extended the prescription on that too.  He laughed and said he even got a little smile out of him.  He will see him every 2 months as well, and said he would sign orders for physical therapy as long as he is making progress.

I know that doesn't seem like much to some people, but to us, here, living with it, it is a big 'jump'!

Getting my hair cut today and going to the post office to get more stamps for my 'postcrossing' cards.  Three of mine have been received so far, and I am looking forward to getting some myself. Also a visit to Walmart to take back and exchange a pair of shorts for Jim.  Church tonight.

So that is my fun day.  Hope yours is a good one too. We have to be thankful for the little gifts that come in our lives in different forms.
