Location: Tom, Oklahoma | I studied all day. I am so excited about Reflexology!! Some spinal cord patients are having great results with it, and it is just another aspect of Acupressure. (like working on the ting points of a horse!) I could not wait to try it out on Ryon, so I took off to Texarkana around 3. When I got there, Ryon was in some BAD pain..his LOWER BACK was hurting him! YEA!!!! Any pain below the break is GOOD PAIN!! :D
So when I got there and started talking about Reflexology, it was the last thing he wanted to hear. (I have given him him 2 mini Acupressure treatments on his back ) He said Mom, I don't want no voodoo crap! LOL but I finally talked him into letting me do a treatment on him. By the time I left at 6pm, he was going to sleep! pain eased. So I'm thinking there is something to this Reflexology.
I always thought that God lead me to Acupressure because I had a crippled horse......lol......but now I know why He REALLY lead me to Acupressure. :) Everyone please keep praying!!
eta.........Thank you all for hangin' in there with us! Hugs and love!
Oh yea, Ryon did have some "tingles" in his right leg while I did the Reflexology on him.

Location: Tom, Oklahoma | I spent yesterday afternoon with Ryon. He had alot of company, but I did get to work on his hands before they came to give him a shower.
Reflexology........I'm thinkin' this is some NEAT stuff! Wow worthy! Ryon was feeling tingles in place he has had no tingles! I did not get to work on Ryon's feet........only his hands. He has very little feeling (really next to none) in his left hand.......but while I was working on that hand, he would feel tingles........like the nerves trying to reconnect. Also, after I worked on that left hand he could "twitch" his pointer finger....which had NO movement before.
We are just trusting in God.........where He leads..........
Thank you all for the continued prayers! We need them so badly!

Location: Tom, Oklahoma | neverwas, srs and all of you who are continuing to pray......thank you so much!
I spent quite a bit of time with Ryon yesterday. His balance is getting better. He has no feeling in his trunk, and it has been a battle, learning how to use those muscles when he can't feel them. But it is getting better/stronger everyday.
I also did another Reflexology treatment on him. (one on his hands, one on his feet) He is feeling more tingles. I am both excited and scared about it. Excited that it could be a good thing.........scared that it might not be. I have researched it, and tingles are usually considered good. It's the "pins and needles" pain that is not. And I do know that he has already had some bad back pain that I was able to manage with Acupressure of his Back Shu Association points. The pain went away, and has not come back and that was 3 or 4 days ago. So please keep praying that these tingles are good things!
He now has an infection under his big toe nail. The dr. is on it today. When I was looking at it last night, he said "owww, don't!". So I don't know if it really hurt, or if he knew it should be hurting.
This SCI thing is weird. |

Location: I'll worry about that tomorrow | Yeah, he pulled that "ow" thing with me yesterday when I pressed on the palm of his hand (the one that he said you worked over pretty good). Of course, the laugh came right after the "ow".....he was kidding....and made me think I had hurt him.  |

Location: Tom, Oklahoma | First off.......thank you all for your continued prayers! God is hearing us! Thank you Lord!
Ryon had a rough day. His blood pressure kept bottoming out. They stopped his therapy early, took him back to the room and started him on some IV fluids, they think he is dehydrated. We'll know tomorrow if it helped......
This evening, the wound person came in and removed most of his big toe nail. (the infection).....He said it burned. :)
While I was giving him is Reflexology treatment.....he felt more tingles!! Thank you Lord!! Then today, during his therapy, the PT was raising his leg straight up, and Ryon said he felt the muscles pull in the back of his leg.......he could FEEL it!!!!!! We are so excited!! Keep praying!! God is hearing us!!!
