 See the world through my eyes

Adjusting to life this way


I injured my back 16 months ago,
life just hasn't been the same.
No more wrestling around with my husband,
or playing fun active kids games.

I have to be extremely careful,
for my back acts up with things that I do.
This past year and a half has been difficult,
The most difficult thing I've been through.

Daily I feel my spine throbbing,
the muscles tighten up in my back.
I go two times a week to the Chiropractor,
in need of an adjusting crack.

The results of the MRI,
wasn't what I wanted to hear.
But at least I know why I'm having the pain,
and everything is clear.

I realize at the age of 33,
I am going to have this pain.
Being in constant discomfort,
trying not to go insane.

Some days it's hard,
not to get depressed.
But I look at the other things in life,
and I know I'm truly blessed.

Kelley Marie Quinn
