Follow up treatment - March 2011

hi there

 

today is the 9th day since i hurt my back.  i had had five treatments by one doctor and progress was only up to 60-70%, this doctor said that as long as i confine to red, i will get 100% well.  therefore i stayed in bed for another two days.  yesterday, fri, i still felt that i could not sit and thought i should do something better and decided to change doctor today.

 

andrew has gone to brisbane for a conference and kevin has a full days appointment.  while i was wrecking my brain last night, suddenly i thought of my neice, wendy and her partner, sid.  sid gladly said he would drive me to the other doctor, about 45 min drive from my home today.

 

so this afternoon sid came at one pm and took me to the new doctor, who also gave me accupuncture and slight spinal adjustment.  he said that i should feel better by 8 pm. afterwards sid also accompanied me to buy some groceries, ie choco cake which i had been wanting for a few days but too embarrassed to ask andrew and kevin to buy because they were soooo busy.

 

when i got home, wendy also came and both sid and wendy helped me with sorting out , labelling and putting all meats and groceries in the fridge.  they both did this work happily, cheerfully and volunteeringly.  afterwards they also helped me wash the dishes in the basin.

 

tomorrow they will also come to drive me to the doctor.  again, our buddhist practice says that

 

when we chant nam myo ho renge kyo, there will be four buddhas (guardian angels), two in front and two behind to protect us, and in these case, the four buddhas are: andrew, kevin, wendy and sid. hehehhehe 

 

hey you know what, although i did enjoy lying down and watching all my favorite TV chinese soap operas, but having done this for 9 days, i think it is getting a bit too much, i am also losing my energy, always sleeping.

 

therefore I AM NOW VERY DETERMINED that i will get well SOON, i mean in a couple of days, and can resume all my normal, i mean normal, not hectic activities, ie standing, walking, sitting, sleeping, driving and doing light things.  i am going to chant for this, may i ask my friends to all help chant for me too?

 

i know a lot of my friends are already chanting for me, and i do thank you all from the bottom of my heart, let us all chant to help me achieve my goal?  pls? 

 

oh by the way, it is now 10 pm, at 9 pm, i was able to sit up and 結結實實 (i mean very solidly) chant for about 30 mins, and now i am sending this email, so i am definitely doing better 

 

tks again
