For the last 3 days I have been having a lot of leg pain and swelling. The night before last my toes looked like little sausages. Gross, I know, but its something that I have to deal with. In typical Kim fashion, I have yet to order a good pair of compression socks. I have the pair I got in the hospital that are completely worn out. And 2 pair of my Dads that are to big but I used as cushioning in my boxes when I sent things home.

Socks sent from heaven? |
As the days went by, the pain has gotten not only stronger but more annoying. I had a hematology appointment today but had to push it to next week because I wasn't feeling well this morning. Yes, I will be sure to tell the Dr about it when I go in. But as I was getting ready for bed my calves were hurting so bad that I wanted to cry. Don't tell anyone, but last night it was so bad I did cry. So I take a shirt out of my drawer and there was this little bag. Brand new compression socks. I decided what the heck, they are XL but I will try them on. Guess what? They fit perfectly. They almost fit like they were made just for me. But a little long on top. And now 30 minuets with them on I feel so much better! I just don't know how else to explain it.
My guardian angel is the best. I believe in signs. I believe that things happen for a reason. I specifically left this pack out of my boxes when we went though dads things because I didn't think they would fit. And yet a year later just when I need them, here they are.
