Updates: Ketamine, Grad School, Field Placement, Etc. + Cute Pictures

Hi, healers! I am so sorry I haven't updated recently (Although, I try to keep updating on facebook, so if we aren't friends, please friend me there.) or read and commented on your blogs. I started my last year of graduate school, classes and a hospice field placement located in a hospital, and I had my latest two ketamine boosters this past Monday and Tuesday in Philly with Dr. Schwartzmann. They went well, my pain is good, and I recovered quickly. It has been a challenge trying to find what works for me to stay off pain medication, stay in active treatment (physical, emotional, spiritual, etc.), and complete my requirements for my Master's degree, which are very demanding for RSD/CRPS. I will write about this quest to find balance in more detail ASAP along with my current and future treatment plans.
Here are some pictures of Shorter and me cheering for the University of Miami this past weekend. Doesn't he look handsome? His mom is a PROUD alumni, so he has to dress appropriately :-)







Look at the love and hugs!



A Shorter puppy picture just for fun :-)



Stay tuned for some big updates!

Happy Healing!
