That's me, the healing machine!!! Yesterday's post Life in the Fast Lane was all about the people who are helping me heal, family Dr, Neurologist, Neurosurgeon, Opthamologist, MRI/CT techs, Massage Therapist, and the list goes on. I learned a lot yesterday at my Neurologist appointment, kind of like being back in Bio class. We talked about myelin sheath and axons and the rate of which a nerve can heal, apparently about an inch a month. All of this information is important, as are these specialists, but no one can top me, the broken one. Without me and others like me, in need of repair, none of the above jobs would exist. Its a `win win` situation for all involved. I need you to fix me, you need me to work on, fair enough!!!!
One thing that every specialist has in common so far is they all agree on one thing...TIME...time is what the body needs to heal. I hated that word, at one point I thought if one more person tells me that it`s going to take time, I`m going to scream. I don`t have time, I have things to do, until this week, when I finally surrendered to time. Every specialist in the world can only aid the body is doing what it does best all on it's own, heal itself, and that, takes time.
