29 Days, Day 9 and on

Posted by Melissa on February 26th, 2010. Filed under: Uncategorized.

It occurred to me today, when I was writing the first draft of this post that to tell you all the gift would be to put something very personal about someone else on my blog.  I definitely don’t mind dishing dirt about myself, but I don’t feel right sharing the intimate details about someone else on here.  To summarize it, today’s gift was giving my best friend enough (of Matt’s) frequent flier miles so that she could be with a friend that is dying.  She needed to get there on very short notice, and it was such a blessing that we had the extra miles to offer her so that she could get there.

I’m going to withhold from posting about my future gifts here on my blog because I’ve found that they’ve become increasingly too personal to share here (without their permission).  I hope you understand!

In other news, I’ve someone really damaged a disc in my back and I have to have two steroid injections on Monday.  Under sedation.  I’ve never had any back issues, and this have given me a newfound understanding and respect for patients of mine with back pain.  This is AWFUL!  But percocet is amazing, and I’m grateful for the pain relief.
