Peripheral nerve stimulators

@faithwalker Hi Renee, I know I did not buy your first novel, as I wanted free shipping, and chose to buy your more expensive books in order to have it. What a nutty way to make a book choice! But all your books got such great reviews, that I just picked 2 more expensive ones that got me over $25.00 bucks, and thus, free shipping. For me, it was honoring you, more than the books themselves. However, one book was "wings"....something. The other.....oy, I have to look at my Amazon purchase to remember the title. People absolutely praised your writing style, action, plot, everything.....so, I am happy. Love, Lori

I'm humbled by your actions, LoriRenee. I don't deserve it. The first book I ever wrote was actually To Soar on Eagles Wings although it wasn't the first published. I only rewrote it three times though. LOL
Beast of Stratton was the first published. To Soar is the first book in the Snowy Range Chronicles, and Through Raging Waters is the second. I'm still working on the third. Racing Hearts is the book I wrote that is based on our only pregnancy and delivery which occurred in Jackson, WY, and is as close to fact as I could comfortably get with a few character changes and flubs and bubs to keep people guessing.
All of my books that take place in Wyoming have events that I've witnessed or read about in the newspapers. I did not exaggerate any event, natural or created by man although I've been accused of doing it. Wyoming is a volatile but beautiful place. 😉
Through Raging Waters is action-packed but fun to read. 😉
Thank you for your wonderful gesture. You are truly a beautiful soul.
In Christ,
Renee

Hey you two, I have enjoyed your interactions here. Really, it is so sweet! You both suffer from unfathomable pain and yet it does not diminish your capacity to find love, caring and joy in your lives. You are both very inspiring to me. And you certainly put me in the Christmas mood. Best, Hank

@avmcbellar Hi Toni! Your knowledge helps so much! I appreciate your input about my stimulator. I have an appt with my Pain doc in a few weeks to discuss the stimulator, and will ask about the leads. This is all just too much! I hope you are ok?????? Love to you, Lori

@jesfactsmon Hi, Hank! My Grandma used to say, "Good is good!" Such a simple statement. When a person is so kind, so good, such as Renee, such as you, it helps me to endure my pain. I hang on to that goodness. I have to find thanks in spite of pain, or I would be in a constant state of despair. Glad I can inspire you. I really am not all that good at inspiring myself, but I sure try! Love to you, always, Lori

@faithwalker Renee, You live with such utter pain. Your pain descriptions have floored me, but you still manage to give so much to others. I had to translate my appreciation into something tangible. What you have given to others is huge. As far as your books, they all sound so good! I know I did want to buy The Beast of Stratton, but it was less expensive than the others, and I would have wasted money on shipping, so I bought the more expensive ones. What thrills me now, is that I do know that I bought To Soar on Eagles Wings, and I do believe that the first book a person writes, is usually his best. In your case, you wrote it several times!!! I think the other book I bought was Through Raging Waters, but not sure! Will get both from Amazon in a few days. I think we have to appreciate others in this life, for what else, is life really for? Thanks from the heart. Love to you, Lori

God is good... all the time!

@lorirenee1 no worries, thank you. I am glad someone had info on stimulators to share. I always use my experiences to learn new things. I have never had a stimulator.
Let’s hope there was no additional pain caused from a wrong connection. Your appt can’t come soon enough. On the bright side, you will be able to help others after going through this experience. Best to you. Toni

Hi @lorirenee1. You are right! There is no guarantee in anything we do. I knew that growing up when I was being careful regarding my health. There are some things we can never control but I did as much as I could. I figured if research proved an illness was related to a behavior then at least I could prevent some health issues. Little did I know I would have an aneurysm when I took care of myself through diet and exercise to avoid a stroke. Well, my effort did not entirely go to waste. My daughter would say, “ma, you were ahead of your time then “ to describe my behavior. What people do now I did forty years ago. It didn’t bother me at all that I was the only one because I was serious. Although it was more difficult because not much was available to purchase ready made, it felt right for me. Currently I am under a health study and hope to help others through my experiences. I credit my health habits for my AVM survival. When I hear of others passing due to their AVM I can relate. Recently on the local news, a 17 year old victim was shown. He was a high school senior football player who was expected to play for his college team the following year. Instead he collapsed on the field during football practice. A life that ended too early. He was the oldest living sibling. Yes, life can be so unfair but the ones remaining can still provide assistance in society. Although difficult, it can be in different ways. No matter what, we owe it to ourselves and society to have a better life and to help others. So keep on trying. Do your best. Time will go by regardless. Why not do something positive during that time. All my life I have helped my seniors and now I continue to find new ways to help our younger generations. I am hopeful in finding VR helpful with health issues. More studies will need to be conducted. I believe VR will become more popular in the coming years. Perhaps this pandemic will be the cause. Take care of yourself. Toni
