The Brace

I recently underwent carpal tunnel on my dystonic right hand. To say the weeks of recovery were unpleasant is putting it mildly! I HAD to wear a brace for two weeks, and those who understand dystonia know that wearing a brace is one of the worst things I could possibly do because my hand fought against it with everything I had. But I healed and am back to my old self. No more braces for me!!!!!!!!!!!

Even as I say this, I know I STILL have a brace; my brace is my faith in God. He lifts me up and carries me throughout my life. He has shored me up with His grace.

May God be your brace when you go through the dark periods.
