Hello Dear Members......

I thought you might all like to know more about what's going on with kimmydawn.

KD had her epidural shots and found some relief from it for awhile. Unfortunately, she also suffered a terrible reaction to the steriods which left her in kind of a stupor for a few days. She was unable to think, or do anything and was out of it for awhile. As you can imagine that was very scary for her when she became more clear-minded and figured out what had happened.

Unfortunately since then the pain has radiated down through her chest area and into her legs. She had a situation the other day where she couldn't even move one of her legs to take a step...there was just no movement there at all. Phewww...how scary that must have been for her!

KD is unable to sit up at a computer and type or use the mouse. If you think about how you type, you will notice that you lift your arms and shoulders while placing your fingers on the keys and there is lots of movement in the shoulders when typing. She cannot do this without being in terrible pain

KD sees the neurosurgeon sometime today. It looks like the only relief she will be able to find is through surgery. As soon as I get an update from KD, I will gladly pass it along to everyone.

Please continue keeping KD in your thoughts and prayers. She really needs us now like she has never needed us before. I know we all miss her terribly.....she has always been the glue that binds us here. I know you will all rally around and uplift her. Thank you for all you do....and I know KD thanks you all too.

KD sends her love and says she misses all of you very much!
