2 to go
5 down and 2 to go. The last spinal stem cell left me feeling like I got run over by a truck……..a small truck but a truck none the less. A minor headache and a little back pain but feel much better today. The next one is Monday and then Friday and that the end. Almost at the end of this journey, its left me in high spirits but I feel so very, very tired.
Now that I’ve been feeling better we’ve gone on a few outings. One was to the Silk Market and Silk Factory……….lets just say I bought some silk 
It was actually very interesting, they took us through a little tour on the silk making process. They boil the coccons, take out the silk worms and spread the wet silk. The woman who works in the water with the silk is over 70 years old, they call her grandma and her hands look so young, very soft and smooth, amazing. We asked what they do with the dead worms, they use everything, and so its grounded up to make skin care products………yup I bought some of that too.
Today we took a drive up around tea mountain, absolutly beautiful and then to a pagoda that overlooked West Lake. This place is truely beautiful, I’ve never seen anything like it. I think sometimes we forget to appreciate the opportunities that happen to fall into our path, myself included. I try to remember that whatever misery life throws our way, we are surrounded by so much beauty, we only have to look to see.
Missing you but not the snow
