Pain and Purple Tulips

Saturdday I watched conference and the talk that stood out to me the most was Kent Richards of the Senventy, he spoke about Pain.   I loved when he said "The Savior is not a silent observer, HE Himself knows personally and infinitely the pain that we face."  I know as I face this next week, those words will stay in my heart and mind.  I certainly feel peace and comfort, I know that whatever the Lord has in store for me, it is HIS plan and with HIS help I will follow Gods plan for me.
The last few days, the pain in my hip has escalated.  I finally called Dr. Northfelt's office Thursday and Maryann called in a prescription for the pain.  I'm sad when I think about going back on pain medicines, it feels like I'm going backwards instead of forward.  I refuse to take the pain medicine, unless it gets to  at least  a 7 on a scale from 1-10, and I won't take it during the day when I watch Recker.  The pain got so bad I could hardly walk, and even cried when I was at COSTCO getting some last minute things for dinner, yesterday.  Kayla begged me to take some medicine, but I just wanted to spend some time with my family tonight.  I realize I need to be smart and do as the doctors are telling me, at least until we have a diagnosis and can find out what the culprit to all this pain is, however, my family means the world to me and if I have to be in a little pain just to have some fun time with them, then dog-gone it I will.  I am hoping for another miracle, is it selfish to ask for one more?  I believe the miracle we received after my last surgery was such an incredible modern day blessing and we needed it, I still thank Heavenly Father for that miracle.
Yesterday I received a  bouquet of beautiful Purple Tulips,  I love all the spring colors and flowers they smell like Heaven, thank you to who ever you are that had those sent to me, it really made my day.  I also received a beautiful bouquet of florals the day before, someone dropped them off at my door, still I don't know who you are but thank you so much, those acts of kindness cheer up the sad and make me feel glad, glad I have people in my life who love my family so much and who don't care about getting recognized for it, you are true Angels on Errands, and I love You.
