Stuck in Bed

*CAUTION*(very long post you may skip if you want to.)

Many years ago when I was a foolish silly teenager trying to show off, I tried to do a jump with a snowboard.. Well, unfortunately I crashed and couldn't get up. Embarrassed, I had to be gurneyed off the slopes and sent in an ambulance to the hospital. The doctors said I was fine and that I probably just bruised my muscles. I remember being in bed for 5 days after the accident because I could hardly move with out having pain. After I recovered I didn't think anything of it and went on with my life with no problems. While pregnant with Mckenzie I remember having severe back pain and I asked my OB what it could be. He asked if I had possibly ever injured my back and I remembered my accident. He said pregnancy can cause irritation to old wounds. I still didn't think much about it. Well, about 2 years ago I hurt my back so bad that I could hardly get out of bed I went to a chiropractor and he said I probably have a herniated disc. When he told me that I immediately scheduled to see the spine specialist where they did an MRI and confirmed my Herniation. I recovered and went on with my life scared to work out or do anything that might hurt my back. I then re injured it about 6 months later, but it wasn't as bad and after three days it felt better. The reason I'm saying all this is I injured my back AGAIN!! Tuesday I was picking up Mckenzie to set her in the chair to do her hair and I instantly had shooting pain up and down my back and down to my leg! I was so mad at my self for not using good back mechanics. I guess it's been so long I forget that I need to be careful ERRrrrrrr! I wanted to cry. I have been really good about working out and strengthening my core so why did this happen? I've been stuck on my back since Tuesday night and I cant bend my back. I walk like an old lady with a hunch back because when I straighten my back my spine crunches my disc that is bulging out of my spine. When I am moving around I can remember the pain I had with my snowboarding accident and it is the exact same pain I had then. So I guess it wasn't a bruise after all! There is some good things about being stuck in bed, one is I have almost caught up with blogging and 2 I finally started my digital scrap booking I have been meaning to start. The bad thing is my house is a disaster. Luckily and thankfully my kind mother stayed over late last night to help me finish folding a putting away my huge piles of laundry. What a great Mom! Thanks mom! I think laying around for 2 days have payed off because I am laying here now and I'm not in constant pain like I was 2 days ago it's only when I move. The funny thing is today I was laying belly down with ice on my back (actually it was a bag of frozen peas) when Mckenzie asked if she could open the bag and eat the peas. I didn't really care either way, so she opened it and started eating the frozen pea's. Then Madi came over and started munching on the pea's. Personally I hate pea's but they were lovin it so what ever gets them to eat there vegetables. Okay I've rambled enough I better go to bed!
