Through A Thousand Needles Poke

When Pain Muffles my Breath…
Ever So Invisibly
& Trigger Points even to a Gentle finger’s Touch- Feels like Life-Bleeds
For weeks & months on No-end;
As I lay lifelessly
Through countless such episodes of
Flare-ups- Where Tears-
Involuntarily-Weeps
While none could know….how excruciating pain can be
But Coco knew…
As he Sniffed my scalp
That felt like a Thousand Needles Poke
& to pull me out of that…
He’d Fetch That toy…

This photo was taken during the first flare up episode of pain in July, Since my baby Coco ( a trained therapy dog), left his physical form in April & even though I was missing him crazy, Knowing how he would sniff my head & know I was in unbearable pain
Not just that he even knew simply by sniffing which hand I’m not able to use due to flare up & he would even warn me to slow down if it would affect the nerves in my spine that would leave me bedridden , unable to walk for months
This artwork is my way of Gratitude for how he saved me literally through this chronic pain
