So little time to Blog

Nearly eight months ago was my last post. So much internet so little time.
OK really just too darn busy with wolves and the running of this sanctuary and being sick for almost two years straight.
Last January I dropped a five gallon water bottle on my little toe oh man that hurt...

That was just the beginning…

With me limping around for almost a week, my right hip and lower back started to hurt.
I figured it was due to limping and favoring my right foot, boy was I wrong!

On February 3 my 47th birthday I woke with some of the worst pain in my life all throughout my pelvis and right side. Every where there was pain there was a terrible rash.
Georgia put Lakota in the car and we drove 3 hours to the emergency room in Albuquerque.

Shingles…OUCH!!

Shingles is a virus that attacks the nerve root and causes pain off the scale that can last for years!

And I got to tell ya, I think it hurt worse that the bite from Nikki last August!

So needless to say, I had to spend the last five weeks on serious pain medication and in bed. Sure, I could use the rest, but when I am down the sanctuary suffers. I had to put all education programs on hold and have been unable to do some of the most important tasks, like raise money!

When I am gone there is no one to get out into the public and solicit for the funds that we need to keep the sanctuary running. All the bills piled up and many were paid late. I hauled myself to the sanctuary on a few occasions just because there was no one else that can do some of the things I can do.

Here we are today April 8 2008 I still have pain no rash just pain. It is very hard to sleep so I am a little grumpy most the time.

I still have not done any fund raising so if you know any wealthy people that need a non-profit to donate to let the know about us!

I am starting to post video on this blog so keep in touch and I will try to do the same.

Thank you!
