Yesterday I had a really, really sore shoulder. I don’t know what happened – initially I thought it was related to my asthma as I sometimes get odd aches and pains when it’s playing up (which it is at the moment – I have the lung function of a 69yr old) and it was really hurting to breathe. Â
The pain got worse as the day went on but I started to find I had restricted movement – I couldn’t turn my head to the left or hold my head up straight without pain. Â I thought perhaps I’d pulled something whilst trying to push the pram one handed. By the time Dave got home from work I was really struggling. Â He went off on a mission for me to get paracetamol and some pain relief gel and thankfully I noticed a difference quite quickly. Â
I had explained to Ben and Chloe that I had a very poorly arm and that they needed to be careful as it was hurting me. Ben offered to give me a “special hug” to make me feel better. Â He realised that his hug hadn’t really worked and that I was still in pain so he told me “My special hug will have soaked in by the morning and you’ll feel better” – I could have cried. Â
I went to bed dosed up on pain killers fully expecting to feel much worse this morning as I though my neck and shoulder would stiffen over night but guess what? I woke almost pain free! Maybe my little boy’s hugs are magical after all! Â Â
Aww!! How sweet….I always seem to feel better after a hug from my girls!
Glad you're feeling a bit better x

It worked – that's great and nice to get hugs from the children too.
