Requesting a small Prayer - if you feel so inclined to do so

I’m sitting here at the frustrating time of awaiting my kit to arrive. I order a little spear engine from Model Expo to fill in. It should get here Tuesday.
Stay strong my friend, getting old is not for the weak
 
Geez, I thought I had problems getting older with my hips barking back at me and wrist hurting (I think from squeezing the darn ca glue bottle lol). I’m losing my depth perception when I’m working really close and recently accidentally cut one of the shrouds, had to redo the whole darn thing :(
Don’t be discouraged because we’re with you and follow the advice these guys have given- try to avoid the movements that cause the pain. Pain is good in a way because it’s the body’s warning that whatever you’re doing is either not good or is from overuse.
 
I am no longer religious, so a prayer from me would not be appropriate. However, I hope that an accurate diagnosis can be made quickly to ensure the right treatment and that work can begin on a speedy recovery. I wish you all the best, Donnie.
Regards, Peter

Now, I have a problem with my right arm and right hand. When I sit down at PC and reach for the mouse, my right hand goes numb. I am just asking for those that are so inclined to do so, if you do not mind saying a small prayer for my healing. At this point, I do not know if I should go to a Physical Therapist or a Chiropractor, or a basic Medical Doc. At any rate, just say one for me if you all do not mind.

I also had back surgery on a procedure called "Intercept Procedure" where a doctor (surgeon) will use an X-Ray guided machine in order to use a Lazer to help burn some nerves inside two vertebrae. The condition is called Vertebragenic pain. The pain is in very lower back when I sit for about 30 minutes. So, I hope that his surgery helps.

Actually, this pain in arm and numbness in hand is what is driving me nuts right now.

Hi Donnie, no problem with the prayers. I have a question: when you use your right arm to move the mouse, is your whole arm resting on the desk, or just your hand? Frank
