Isaiah 58:11

The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.

Max goes to the doctor

During the summer Max was having some neck and back tenderness. A couple of weeks ago he had a some days when the pain intensified so we took him to the doctor. He was seen by an orthopedic surgeon educated in Britain. An XRay and exam revealed an injury to his T1 vertebra. He started on arthritis medication which gave him great relief!

He has been seeing a Canadian chiropractor for ultrasonic treatment, massage, heat, and minor adjustments. He has been able to resume basketball practice. Most of the pain is now gone as long as he keeps his neck in proper alignment. The biggest challenge is being in school. He has been able to modify the height of his desks and his chairs at school to keep his work at eye level.

We expect him to make a full recovery. And he really loves getting a massage!
