This was supposed to be a fun day, scrapbooking with friends, and I have been looking forward to it for several weeks. However, last night, while I was preparing for today, I lifted
a box down from an overhead shelf, and it turned out to be heavy. The way it came down on my hand, injured me. The pain was instant and severe. I thought I had dislocated my shoulder or torn the rotator cuff. X-rays this morning showed that I have herniated a disc in my neck. Then it was an MRI at the hospital downtown because they were the only ones who could fit me in today. I go back to the doctor tomorrow, and I am in hopes of it healing with therapy rather than surgery. I have to be very careful and cannot look down, so for the time being, it is point and shoot time and I'll be very limited with what I can do. Not happy.
