Relief!

This morning the orthopedist gave me an injection of cortisone in my right shoulder joint to alleviate the inflammation of the bursa. It relieved the pain almost immediately, although I still have limited range of motion. She has also authorized physical therapy twice a week. It will probably take several months to recover, but right now, I am so grateful that the pain that was taking over my waking and sleeping hours is gone.
So here is a Thank You song, from Sly and the Family Stone, my hometown faves.
