Over the past few years arthritis has invaded most my joints, except my right wrist. Well, this morning it took hold of the right wrist with vengeance. I applied ice, prescribed ointment with little relief of the pain. Then I began looking for my wrist brace that I have used for my left wrist over the years. Looked in all the places where I thought it might be with no luck. After searching in the bedroom for it I went back into the living room. As I past by Celia's favorite chair there was the wrist brace on the arm rest of her chair. Was it divine intervention, Celia looking out for me or am I losing it?
