Oh Sarah, you are such a wonderful story weaver -- that was a whole adventure and you can't even walk that far! The humor and light touch intermixed with the tragedy -- I hate that you're hurting but love the sense you're making out of it. And the poem, OMG, the poem. You're amazing my friend.

Sarah, oh noooooooooooooo

I was honestly hesitant to recommend a chiropractor because I’ve heard so many mixed reviews, and a few people have told me a chiropractor made things worse for them but it’s been great for me and that’s just my personal truth. But I’m so bummed you are feeling this way, it sounds utterly miserable. Regardless, this post was so well written, I’m glad you’re getting your words back.

Thank you!!! Honestly I knew it might go sideways but I wanted to try! I think she was a really good Chiro, she'd been doing it for a long time but....bodies are weird and mine freaked out. I'm so glad it worked for you!!! The shoulder show is no joke. It's been super motivating for me to take real real REAL good care of my back from here on out. Big hugs!! xoxo

Love this. I laughed, cringed, teared up, and nodded my head the whole way through. Your voice; honest and weirdly comforting is like a warm hug from someone who's currently horizontal on a heating pad. Thank you for sharing your pain, poetry, and peanut butter sandwich adventures. 💛 Can’t wait for the next one.
