Sept 11 2021 El Camino de Santiago

September the 11th 2021

Hello everybody. Today I am taking a day off because several days ago the hiking was very hard on the ankles and the knees. There were round stones for miles and miles and miles and walking on these stones caused stress on the ankles and knees.

 

As you recall in the preparation posts, I was concerned about my leg that has three pins, one plate and about 6 screws. Because of the rough terrain, my leg with the pins and screws started to get inflamed.

 

I have been babying that leg over 15 miles. I Decided to stop into a farmacia over here and get a tight bandage for my ankle and leg. The brace was too tight and did more harm than good. So I took off the brace and I am allowing my muscles to heal.

 

Please say a prayer for healing for me.  I went into the local church and prayed for healing and for less pain in my ankle and leg.  I lit a candle for all of your prayers and for all of my prayers. Every time I go into a church or Chapel or cathedral I say a prayer for each one of you that are following me spiritually.

 

I came back to the motel and started booking my hotel rooms for the next 3 days. It will not be long now until I reach the Holy door in the cathedral at Santiago. Probably a little over a week. So get ready to check with me on the exact time that I will be walking through the Holy door.

 

There is going to be a lot that I will be processing when I return from El Camino de Santiago pilgrimage.

Stay tuned.

Love you all!!!
