Hi Abby, Teach me how to feel is certainly very powerful stuff . I have been suffering from chronic pain for 19 years after being injured while in the Air Force . Having had three spinal surgeries for a total of seven discs being fused ,I can totally relate to how you are feeling . That picture of a someone looking down at one’s feet was certainly poignant . Does it get better with time ? I honestly don’t know, what I do know that without a loving ,understanding family ,you are pushing it up hill . You are one very brave lady for putting yourself out there . Please take care and I look forward to reading more of your work . As a quick aside ,this Aussie visited Maine last September ,wow what a beautiful place . Again ,take care ,we need you .
