 The Pain Blog: A Blog Entry by Shana Cozad (November 8, 2011)
"I acknowledge you. I feel you with my every walk and climbing of stairs, I feel you when I sit and I feel you when I lay down. I still feel 'most' of you when I take aspirin to try to suppress you. I wanted nothing more when I was growing up than to be acknowledged for who I was. Perhaps you need to be acknowledged too."
