     What happened in the last year? Write about something you can do now that you could not do a year ago.

 


I am glad to say that a year ago, I was on pain pills and addicted to them as well. My doctor would give me 20 pills of Vicoden and I would have them all used up by 3 days later, if I was lucky. This left me in shooting and stabbing pain until I could get “the next dose”.

This was a legitimate process until my first brainstem tumor/lesion was taken out on September 3, 1997. 


I still had pills and shots of Nubain as well. I slowly have gone off of those. I now, since March 7, 2005 to April 4, 2005 was in rehabilitation after the first tumor/lesion. I went to a 28-day program.

I am drug-free I am Happy to say! It has been over a year and very hard. I still get sharp and stabbing pain. Yet, I am learning how to live with it. I never would have been able to do this without the help of my family. They have been so good to me! I love my Mom and Sisters very much.

Well sweetie girl; I think that's pretty awesome. I can relate (a little respectfully) because I am off all pills. Thanks for the inspiration, Becca. Your friend from BC, Canada. Love and peace,

Rebecca your courage and strength are an inspiration to me and I am sure to all of your other friends here on the den. You have talent as a poet and writer and could chose to ignore it and wallow in deserved pity but instead with the heart of a lion you strive to go on and excel in your work and your life. On behalf of all of us here on the den let me say I am proud to know you and your work.
