Back again...

If I had one wish, It would be to have a normal back. I cannot honestly think of a single day since I broke my back 5 years ago that I have not thought about my back. When something like that happens to you, it changes you. Hopefully for the better. It has without a doubt changed me, luckily I have learned many valuable lessons from my time in recovery years ago. Lots of little things can trigger my back. Fortunately I am conscious of most of them. Unfortunately the past few weeks have been extremely painful. I have an appointment with a specialist Friday to hopefully help me out.

One thing is for sure. My MRI from 5 years ago still haunts me, it will always haunt me. I cant really describe the fear/unrest/sadness that this photo brings.

Basically my sacrum is slipping under my L5 vertebrae. Maybe it's this photo that has helped give me drive to push myself so much more in my day to day life. If the little disc between my two vertebrae pops (it is damn near exploding in this photo) all I know is things will never be the same. Knowing that you have 3 disks ready to burst isn't exactly reassuring.

Everyone is fighting battles. THIS is my battle.

Don't Stop Breaking Down the Doors
