Here's a Sigh of Relief

One of my customers, Dr. Berman has become a good friend of ours over the past couple years - 3yrs ago he treated me for chronic back and joint pain that I had had from a very young age and I literally have been "miraculously" pain-free ever since. For this I am still unbelievably grateful having never forgotten going from doctor to doctor and popping so many pills with no relief for so many years. So when Berman heard about the pain I had been experiencing this week he asked to see me immediately and after listening to me describe the pain for 2 mins, he told me it was a pinched nerve from my ever-shifting/softening pelvis and after propping my pelvis and somehow re-situating it for a few minutes, I was better. He told me some exercises to do and I am no longer screaming in agony--which Charlie is very happy about!! It was the most terrified I have been in a long time...thinking that this little thing that I have been given to take care of may be in danger. I'm also glad to have saved thousands of dollars on tests and hospital stay this week!!

Wow, that is just so awesome! What a great thing to have someone like that to provide some serious help - and in such an important time (i.e. it's not just about you anymore). ;) (that was incredibly tongue-in-cheek, by the way). I love you! -Nathan
