CHIRO--1st Adjustment

The Chiro called me back  Saturday afternoon and was able to accommodate the King today.  After our initial visit on Thursday (8-21-08), the Chiro wanted to see the King again to let him know what recommendations are regarding treatment and how often he needs to get adjusted per week and blah blah depending on the tests.   

So, we went to the Chiro again this morning. The Chiro said that the King's L5 is really bad. He has an ANTERIOR LISTHESIS (in the LUMBAR region).   In other words, the bone is pushed forward.  The Chiro was able to do some adjustments to the King. He was on three different tables. 1st table his spine was being massaged. Creating space between each vertebrae...allowing synovial fluid to flow. The Chiro was telling the King that "our body creates its own WD-40. Ya, it's called the synovial fluid." (Hey, I learned that in YOGA!) I hope that the King's back can get back to normal.   Yey! He finally got adjusted.  The King was so cute as he was laying on the tables.  That 1st table,  Spinalator was tickling his turtles.    It was making him smile despite all his pains! (That Spinalator looks fun.  I want to try it, too!) The 2nd table, he was in a prone position (superman pose without the skin tight suit) and it involved lowering/raising the legs  and lateral flexion to the right and left.  Again the lateral flexion was tickling the King's turtle. I saw that smile.

Poor King have been tolerating this pain for so long.    He works so hard to provide for us and neglects his well being.  Hellurh!  What is it with men and doctors?  Anyway, 2nd adjustment tomorrow at 9:30 am.  I will be going to work in the afternoon.

I called Mama and Papa after work today just to let go of toxins in my system.  That was rejuvenating.  Thanks to OTWC  it's free to call GUAM.

Family Home Evening
Well, Plain Jayne gave a wonderful lesson at FHE.   Acronym STAD and the WANT MONSTER. Sang the song, "Dare to do Right".
Played "THUMPER"  
S represents STOP!  Before you act, stop.  Don't do it yet.  Just pause long enough to do the other steps.
T represents THINK!  Think ahead to the consequence.  Ask yourself, what will it be?
A represents ASK!  Ask yourself if the consequence will be worth it.
D represents DO!  After thinking and asking, do the right thing.  This step is very important.  This will decide who is in control, the want MONSTER or YOU.

(My stomach doesn't feel good.  I think I ate too much at FHE...is this heartburn? Wait I just took my calcium supplement..is that what's giving me this churning feeling in my belly and up my esophagus?  Hold on I think I'm going to barf!)

Okay, I'm back!  eeew.  That was gross.  It's been a while since I've upchucked  something to that extent.  NO!  I'm not pregnant!  There went my dessert down the sewer.  Fruit Trifle, vanilla ice cream and brownies.  yum! Thanks to Tita 96762 and Plain Jayne who beautifully created those master pieces.
