We have come full circle. Adler saw his new physical therapist today…..who evaluated him 7 years ago. He was 4 years old and in agony with buttock pain. His episodes of pain were so excruciating at times that he would be soaked in sweat and tears. He would vomit and fall to the floor. It was awful. He was misdiagnosed with arachnoiditis and began heavy steroids for pain and a couple other drugs that didn’t help at all and made him sick. He began physical therapy also. Here. And that bike. He rode the hell outta that little blue bike. We couldn’t believe they still has it!!! Now. He stands 5’5″ tall at 11 years old and here we go again. I’m not sure how to feel about it all. I’m happy to have her on our side again but it’s also so heartbreaking to see where we started and know at the root of it all was and is cancer. The good and the bad. The beautiful and the ugly. The love and hate. The appreciation and the why’s. Finding grace in the dark. Man, it’s a lot sometimes. I knew nothing then. And now I know too much. It’s about balance……in the balance room as it’s now called. Go figure!!!! ☯️🅰️💙🌈⚓
