BEGINNING TO IMPROVE ON TEA CUP TUESDAY!


Hello Ladies!  Welcome to Tea Cup Tuesday No. 279!  You would not believe the amount of pain I have been in for the past two months. I have tried everything to get better, from steroids to physical therapy to acupuncture.   This Wednesday I am trying a chiropractor. I believe the combination of all four with a lot of prayer have begun to give me relief. I have not been able to sit more than 15 minutes or so for the last few weeks without suffering extreme pain.   Today, I feel like I might  have just turned the corner.  I had a pinched nerve in my lower back.  Every movement was so painful, not even the pills they gave me for pain helped.  I am taking it very easy, but it feels like I just might get better.  I missed partying with you.  I just could not sit long enough.  Thank you so much for your kind words and prayers. If you have any ideas, let me know.  I will try anything. 





I am sharing two cups with you today.  The first one is a hand painted Lefton, pedestal tea cup.  This was a gift and is one of my favorite cups.




The next cup is beautiful black lace, Royal Albert tea cup!




Thank you so much for staying with me during this very difficult time.  Hopefully, I will be well enough to visit every one this week.  Here is a picture of my grandchildren on the family vacation I missed recently.  I was heart broken because I never miss a time with my family.  We have scheduled another.



Here  is the link for this week's parties as well as other parties that are so much fun to be a part of.  Hugs to all!  Martha

  1. Hello dear Martha! I'm so happy for you my friend that you are finally getting some relief from such awful pain you've been having.
    I guess all the different therapy you've tried is finally working slowly, but surely. I will continue praying for your health and please don't go over board with us and take your time.
    Thank you so much for having the lovely party up!
    Kisses to the cuties that I'm sure make you smile big.
    Have a better week.

  9. Oh Martha, I'm so glad you're feeling a little better. I know what it's like having a son who has been in chronic pain. He had a spinal cord stimulator surgery last Wednesday after being in pain for 3 1/2 years. He's already feeling relief.
    Your teacups,are beautiful and I know you'll be happy to go on the next trip with your family. It's no fun to miss out!!!
    Thank you for hosting your party and I'll keep praying for you.

  10. Hi Martha,
    I do hope you find relief soon. I live with back pain every day and it's no picnic. Thankfully, I do have some good days between the bad so I appreciate those when they come.
    Your teacups are really beautiful. Both lovely in their own way. Take care and we all hope to hear some good news next time.

    Blessings,
    Sandi
