A few weeks later, I had started to lose the use of my right leg and didn't have much feeling in my leg at all, or in my right hand. Throughout this time I still carried on going to work with the boys, and all the usual work that we do. I can't lie - it was difficult for me and I was scared about the reality my life seemed to be turning into, but yet I was still determined to do it MY way and get on with it.
As I seemed to be getting worse instead of better, my family arrived and I was transferred to another Doctor. He gave me a diagnosis of a herniated disc that was pressing onto my nerve and resulting in my walking difficulties, and he suggested that I needed some physiotherapy.
At this time a good thing to have done would have been to turn and rely on God:
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
Psalm 46:1 [NIV]
Psalm 46:1 [NIV]
However I still battled on in my own strength and with my quote that:
"It's going to be ok because God won't give me more than I can handle"
