How many times have I reminded myself that when you are doing something beautiful for God, you pay a price. The enemy tries to prevent me from publishing "A Special Mother is Born". Now, for the past week, I have been flat on my back with spasms. Painful ones. I am tired of offfering it up. I want relief prayers. Now.
UPDATE Sept 24: Thank you, my back is still bad, but I finally found a new chiropractor here in CT (I haven't bothered since our move over 2 years ago this month, a case of mom's priorities come last coming back to haunt me) and they seem to have pinpointed the problem as a locked spine in my mid back, which is leaning on the muscles and causing spasms.
I will be going on Monday for some relief, please God.
Meanwhile, I'm resting and on medication, oh, except for the Ave Maria Banquet, Mass on Sunday, then its Cennacle Sunday at the Friary. I'll be on heavy pain meds, so I can't drive to any of these events, but I'm still going.
Thank God for my husband and teenagers in my house who can drive!

Prayers coming your way dear...I know how you feel! I am crippled with a horrid back myself but when my stenosis acts up I really find it hard to offer it up too! It's usually done through tears! Hang in there and don't you let that creep-enemy-of-God,Man & Women get the best of you!! Take it slow & feel better soon. I'll pray to St. Pio & Blessed Fr.Newman for you! God Bless!
My husband and I were moved by your prayer.
We are praying that the Lord will help you in your situation.
When we find our self in hard times we use a service called holylandprayer.com…hope you find it helpful.
God bless you.
