Hilary's Journal

Entry for November 9, 2005

I am sorry that I haven't written in a while, but almost all of the free time I have at home is spent trying to complete all of the homework that I have SO GRACIOUSLY been given!

Well, today I am getting my back brace (to correct my scoliosis) and I'm not THAT excited. I was told that it is extremely uncomfortable and a neusance to wear. I tried coming up with GOOD things that might come from this experience and I got a few:
  1. It will correct my scoliosis
  2. My back shouldn't hurt anymore
  3. I will have incredibly good posture!
I told Meagan, "I guess I'll deal with it if it's for the greater good." I am not entirely sure that I will abide by this statement, but I will try my best. The doctor told us that I will have to wear it 23 hours a day, basically only taking it off to shower. The goal is to have my spine straight by my prom night-- when I'm 17 years old, ICK! Oh, well. If it's for the greater good! My friends are great about making me feel better about it, too. It's nice to have friends who aren't ALWAYS centered around themselves! Uh-oh... The bell is about to ring! I gotta go. I might add more later!

Love, Hilary

Hilary
