My little miracle...

And if that wasn't enough... my shoulder had been bothering me since fall 2009. I was playing volleyball with some of the youth in our ward and I was teaching them how to serve over hand. Well... something popped in my shoulder. It was sore for the entire fall/winter and I finally went to Dr. Toronto after Christmas... 6 months, x-rays, an MRI and 4 shots of cortizone later... I met with a surgeon who within a couple minutes told me I had a calcium deposit in my shoulder joint. He didn't know the size, how long it had been there... or how long it might take to dissolve. So we scheduled surgery.

Keep in mind I was in so much pain I could not even use my left arm... sleeping became impossible without a strong sleeping pill and then I was out for at least 10 hours and groggy a couple more.

Surgery became a welcome option... Dr. Mike Metcalf performed the surgery and 45 minutes later reported to Ken... "No wonder she couldn't move her arm... there was a 3 inch deposit lodged in her joint. Three days later Ken removed the pain pump and cold packing... AND walla... no more pain. I was one of the "lucky" ones. I was in physical therapy in 4 days... back in the temple in a week... finished with PT in 4 weeks... and the Doc said I was free to resume all activity in 4 weeks. Miracles really do happen... Thank you Father in Heaven... thank you for restoring my health so fully and so quickly.
