Hello!
I finally found a minute to pop in and see whats happening here. the last 3 weeks seem like an eternity!
As you know we evacuated our house on the east bank of Plaquemines Parish in Louisiana because of hurricane Isaac on Monday August 27. On Wednesday August the 29. 7 years to the day of day that Katrina hit the flood waters of Isaac inundated our house with 15 feet of water taking away just about everything we had. for the next few weeks the only way to see our house was by boat. we are now able to drive in and clear out the debris and try to salvage what we can- which really there isn't anything to salvage but the pictures that we were able to put in the attic above the 20 foot ceiling in our living room.
Another bad thing is that there is a chemical plant about 2 miles from our home that spilled almost 200,000 gallon of chemicals during the storm and they are trying to deny that they escaped into our are and I know that they did- because you can smell them!
A cool thing was we caught a 7 foot alligator in the next door neighbors pool friday!
On Sept 7th i had a rescheduled appt with a neurologist- my original appt was with the top neurologist in New Orleans but was scheduled the day the storm hit. My new appt was with someone that I am not sure really understand Chiari or all its nuances. My chief complaint is severe pain in my lower spine area- many of the symptoms lead me to believe Tethered Chord Syndrome- This Doc does have an MRI scheduled for next monday so we will see what that shows. He has taken me off work until I can see him again in early October- which is a a blessing since trying to deal with insurance companies-FEMA- the church and everything else and try to work is a lot more than I think I could handle right now. Plus the pain is pretty severe. The bad part is he has me limited to 5-10 lbs limit on lifting- and that is hard to do when you have a house full of water soaked "stuff" that has to be removed.
I miss you all. I will try to check in more frequently- as I have internet access.
Pastor Kenny!
