Back In the Swing of Things

It has been a long and interesting hiatus from my blog. Many of you know that following a 2007 car accident, I have dealt with both chronic pain and depression. In the last year, I have been treating both differently, focusing on holistic and non-narcotic means of treatment. I kicked off this new approach with an in-patient detox off all my pain medications in May and have continued to grow stronger in spirit, making my physical pain easier to tolerate.

I feel that in many ways, this is a time of re-birth for me. I am rediscovering myself, rediscovering my interests and the things I find pleasure in. While I still rely on some medical treatments, it is the support of friends, family and the people I have met who have gone through similar circumstances that have allowed me to make it through to this very hopeful and promising stage of my life.

This is a big thank you to all of you who were patient, loving and kind when I needed it most. You mean the world to me.
