A friend of mine with scoliosis has a 50 degree-range curve in her spine and just got her first brace. They didn't discover it (somehow) until she was about 16, and they're deciding now if she's going to need the surgery or not. What a bummer. Hang in there, both of you.
mannn that surgery is rough. i hope she doesn't have to have it, but i think it's much harder to correct a curve through bracing when you're done growing. PRAYERS AND HOPES. xoxo thank you mollyface.
it is really so weird that you wrote about this today because i had a terrifying dream about you last night that woke me up from a dead sleep and my heart was racing and i was gasping for air because i was SO SCARED.
LINDS I AM GLAD YOU ARE ALIVE AND OKAY.
basically, in the dream, you and i were driving and some thugs ripped you out of the car. another guy kept pointing a gun at me and so i stayed in the car and locked the doors and put the car in reverse to escape. but then i heard you scream and A BUNCH OF GUYS WERE BEATING YOU UP, SPECIFICALLY, HITTING A CROWBAR TO YOUR BACK.
it is the most gruesome dream i've ever had and i was so scared for you! I DON'T KNOW HOW THE STORY ENDS BECAUSE THATS WHEN I WOKE UP. THEY PROBABLY WOULD'VE KILLED YOU. i was going to call you but then realized how stupid that probably would've been.
anyway, i'm really sad that your back is hurting you, not only in my dreams, but in real life, too.
that's so strange that they were hitting me IN THE BACK WITH A CROWBAR. i was probably lying in bed awake being like WHY THE THROBBING BACK PAIN???
i hate having scary dreams about people i love b/c you really do want to wake up and call and be like OK JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE YOU DIDN'T GET EATEN BY A GIANT TAPDANCING LION AT THE CIRCUS. I JUST HAD THIS SCARY DREAM. b/c dreams are so often realistic but NONSENSICAL.
oh lauren thank you I REALLY DO LOVE THEM. i have never once felt self-conscious about them and i think they're so cool.
i actually guess i sort of think of them like some people think of tattoos? that sounds weird. but they symbolize everything that happened, those things that were so big and important to me that they changed my whole body and my whole life.
