This may not be the sort of comment you're expecting today, Laura...I've had some significant knee pain the last couple of days and it's been hard for me to walk around the house, or do an errand, but I've been thinking of you. I'm thinking of everything you went through during your cancer diagnosis and surgery, and I thought about how you have 5 children to care for (and grieving the loss of your twin daughters), and it put my own pain into perspective. I don't know how you manage it. You have my deepest respect.
As for All Hallow's Eve...I walked (albeit, very slowly) into the local Walk-In Clinic this morning for some help. When you are in pain, you react to things differently. It bothered me that the first receptionist was in a cowgirl costume, and the second receptionist had bunny ears and whiskers on her face...but when I saw the doctor dressed in full costume, I decided to leave and visit the clinic at another time. I couldn't possibly tell the doctor what was bothering me while she stood there in a fairy princess costume with a mask on her face. I could've skipped all of that today...
