I just wanted to sit a minute and tell you all what is going on with me. I have had a lot of back trouble and I can not sit or stand very long without pain. Well tomorrow I am going in for the third back surgery. He is going to put two screws and a plate in my back along with a spacer for a disc that has no cushion at all left in it. The DR. says I have a 90 percent chance to having a full recovery. I have to stay one to two nights in the hospital. The surgery is tomorrow about 10:00 AM I will let you all know how it goes.

  Good Luck Don-----back surgery is scary (as are all surgeries) and the doc seems to be giving you a real good chance of a full recovery.
  
  Please do let us know-----my thoughts are with you.
