I had a bone scan two years ago. It showed inflammation in my ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, elbows and wrists. The SI was black, but I'm getting conflicting opinions on whether that is indicative of inflammation. It doesn't matter because no doctor I've seen seems to think the bone scan results are significant.

You are reminding me, however, that I need to pin a doctor down on the meaning of those bone scan results. I've never really been clear on it.

I cannot make the universe obey me. I cannot make other people conform to my own whims and fancies. I cannot make even my own body obey me.

Thomas Merton



Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul - and sings the tunes without the words - and never stops at all.

Emily Dickinson
