Hi,
Last year around May I had been back pain free for several months. I was out walking my dog one day and about 5 minutes from my house someone was in their garage with their dog. The dog was not leashed, he ran out to me and my dog. In an effort to keep the dogs apart, as mine does not do well when on the leash, I got bitten in the stomach, left index finger, and right middle finger. I ended up at the ER. Four days later I had surgery to repair 2 torn tendons in my right middle finger. The pain after surgery was awful. I was in a full hand splint for 6 weeks and had physical surgery twice a week during and after the hand splint. The whole thing cost us around $2,500. The owner of the other dog was not liable because it was my dog who bit my finger. It was also sometime after this incident that the back pain slowly started coming back. I never made the connection and started down a rabbit trail of adrenal fatigue, hormonal imbalance, and mineral deficiencies.
It was suggested that I write an unsent letter to the owner of the dog. I did this a little while ago. I wrote about being angry, the pain I endured, the money I had to spend, etc.....and I felt nothing. It's like I was telling somebody else's story but not mine.
How do I get to the point where I am able to feel my feelings?
Thank you!
