Annelise and I commiserated together. We both have boots just on different feet. The kids were cute getting stuff for each of us because we were proped up on the couch. Mom was sweet and took on all the responsibility of taking care of us.
One day Annelise's foot started hurting so bad she could not walk. It didn't make any sense. She has continued to be in excruciating pain without knowing what the problem was. How blessed I feel to know what is wrong and to know that it will have an end.
Yesterday Annelise finally got her answer. She has CRPS (Complex regional pain syndrome) which means that her body thinks her foot should be in pain and sends signals to the foot to be in pain. It will never go away but she will start physical therapy and pain management therapy to learn how to deal with it and to hopefully put it in remission. Poor dear!!
"37 And it came to pass in the eighty and fifth year they did wax stronger and stronger in their pride, and in their wickedness; and thus they were ripening again for destruction.
38 And thus ended the eighty and fifth year."

years after the famine was ended the people were again wicked and ready
for destruction. I am amazed at how quickly the Nephites go back and
forth between wickedness and righteousness. I wonder if as a church we
do the same thing. Are there periods of time that we loose members more
than others? What about our country? Is it "ripe for destruction?"
With the Supreme Court Decision I do fear for our country. I worry
about religious freedom, what will be taught to my children in school,
what we as a nation will have to put up with, how could a people so
righteous turn to so much wickedness. What will our consequences be?
