Kathryn’s having a Ketamine treatment as I write this. She’s handling it well enough that I have time to write a few sentences :)) We are so thankful for Carolinas Pain Institute for their brave fight every day against chronic pain!!!
Yesterday I “met” over the phone a CRPS patient who lives in Richmond. She has had CRPS for 6 years as an adult and has suffered beyond what most of us can imagine! As with many adults with chronic pain she is abandoned by her family to be her own advocate as she deals with multiple diagnoses, huge financial challenges obtaining medical treatment, and much more!
Without family advocates, finding caring clinicians can be much more difficult!! Without someone who feels well and clear to speak for them, adult pain patients are frequently disbelieved and verbally abused by clinicians. Alone against a system and in crippling pain, they are lost in a recipe for hell on earth. My dear friends, please pray for Kathy!
Lord, please show me what I can do to help in the battle against chronic pain!
Prayer request: – For all insurance companies to cover Ketamine treatments for all CRPS patients.
My thanks and love to you all!!
