Thornton Mom

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!!  Book of Mormon, Helaman 11:37-38 ...
