I am pretty much worthless these days. I'm pretty sure I broke my tailbone. The funny thing is that I did it almost 5 years ago.
I was visiting and friend and fell down her stairs and am pretty sure I broke my tailbone, but due to the fact that I knew the doctor couldn't do anything for it, I just rested and the pain passed.
Well, a couple of days ago I had the same nagging pain I often have from sitting on something hard or sleeping in the wrong position. Unfortunately, unlike the normal pain, this pain has escalated to full on pain. I am now taking Percocet and Ibuprofen in large doses and am only coping with the pain when I'm taking them regularly.
I did have an x-ray today and will, hopefully, soon find out what is going on and what to expect as far as healing goes, but for now, I am just waiting and praying! Thank God because my BFF Emanda is off school on Thursdays and Matt is off on Fridays so I have been able to keep Eli's needs met through them the last couple of days, but a new week is approaching and I am praying God will provide hands to care for Eli as long as I must be in bed.
Resting and praying and waiting...

About Me
- ashleykaye
- I was born and raised in a town in central Arkansas, Conway. In 2000, I married my high school sweetheart after he had joined the navy. I have been following him around the country ever since. We were married in Charleston, SC and lived there for 1 year. We moved to San Diego, CA, where we became disciples of Christ in 2001. We moved from there to Bremerton, WA and are now in New Orleans, LA. We are not sure when we will be moving again. Matt's time in the navy is up in 2010...maybe then...maybe sooner. Only God knows!! I am just along for the ride. Our new addition, Eli came June 5, 2008.

So how are you feeling now? Did you find out what's going on?
wish i could say i found something out other than that there is nothing wrong with my tail bone. the doctor told me she thinks i bruised my bone, but that doesn't fit seeing how i didn't fall. i'm all better and on to other things, but am still concerned about the return of that pain.
