put your back into it.


I can't move.. my back is out (indefinitely) due to a lumbar puncture... this is not like before...ive had over 30 and ive never had this problem... it's been over a week of pain and I can barely stand straight.... AND i have to start school tomorrow!!!..

anyone with ideas on how to fix back problems.. let me know...

since im pretty much bedridden i thought id write more in this post.

my wife made a cake to deal with how much she misses her family since we've been back. its been the only thing that i can look forward to since chemo last week so im really grateful/lucky that she resorts to baking to deal with things :)

if anyone wants the recipe she just got it online ( there's no refined sugar in any of it...she used agave nectar instead)

its a carrot/pineapple cake...and it was delicious.


(by the way the painting in the picture was a wedding present from my sister in law leila. so if you want a really great portrait done you should get in touch with her: leilavargha@gmail.com)

While ive been at home...most of the time on the floor cuz thats the only place my back doesn't kill me..ive been thinking a lot about getting a dog to chill with...it just seems like a good idea when im stuck at home but im sure when i start to feel better ill stop wanting one.....it didnt help that while in DC my wife and I stopped by a local pet store to play with some puppies and found this guy.

  1. Hey Nima...
    Sorry to hear about your back pain along with other things... I've battled with back pains pretty much the past 10-15 years and since I've moved to Korea, I've managed to locate a great chiropractic clinc and they've been working on my back among other things. People usually associate chiro with cracking and adjustments... but the ones I have (I have two of them working on different things) are working through the deep tissue and muscles that create the issue in the first place.
    I think it might be worthwhile checking it out and trying it once or twice to see how it suits you.
    Take care and let me know if you want more information.
    Love
