As I prepare this testimonial, it is the eve of one week since I ran and finished my first marathon at the 110 th Boston Marathon. My time was 5:46:32. This was the fulfillment of a dream I've had for many years, but was afraid to attempt. I will be 59 years young in August.

I give God the credit for my successful achievement of this goal, set nearly one year ago. But God clearly worked through the skilled and loving care of Doctors Stephen and Camilla Franson and my friend Bill Bradlee to help me achieve this goal.

When I came to Franson Chiropractic nearly 6 years ago, I could barely walk much less run because of years and years of neglect and inappropriate, ineffective care of a back injury. In 9 th grade physical education class, I seriously injured my back and neck in a trampoline accident. I landed upside down on my neck with my hips, legs and feet above me. Braces on my teeth kept a knee from knocking out my teeth. My doctor said it was a miracle I didn't break my neck and back.

Years of repeated re-injury and often incapacitating pain from spasms in my lower back made me afraid of doing anything strenuous. Nearly everything I did in the way of yard work or renovations to my house caused me days of pain. Sports activity was near impossible. Doctors treated me with strong muscle relaxants, physical therapy, ineffective exercises, and more drugs. None of the doctors took a full spine X-ray. One look at my x-rays and Doctor Franson knew why I was in such pain. I had several subluxations and a compressed disc in my lower back.

When I met Bill Bradlee, I was again having another period of back pain. Bill told me about the excellent results he and his family were having as a result of being cared for at Franson Chiropractic, and that he and his family were commuting from southern Maine to be cared for at Franson Chiropractic! He got my attention! I made an appointment and began my care within a few days. I have had near steady improvement ever since. Now, after the marathon, although my legs were very sore and tired, I am delighted to say, I had no back pain at all during the race and I have had no pain since the race!

Thank you Doctor Stephen, Doctor Camilla, and all of you at Franson Family Chiropractic for giving me my life back!

I would be remiss if I didn't give a very special thanks to Bill Bradlee for caring enough to refer me to Franson Chiropractic. THANK YOU BILL!

May God Bless you all!!
