Well this is it, time to have surgery again.  I'm so ready to feel better, I know its going to hurt, be long and hard, but after this I'll be a pro.  lol  The best thing about it all is that my old neurosergeon suprized me and did my pre-op physical.  He said he would do the surgery and have me as good as new in a month or so.   This time its L3-L4 disk thats ruptured he will remove most of that and hopefully thats it.  He said the part he worked on before looks bad and that he may need to do a fusion.  I told him do whatever you think is best but I want it fixed.

 

My kids are going to their fathers house for a few weeks and my mom will stay with me for a few days.  I really don't have anything to fuss about  other than this coming around so fast.  I wish I had another week or two to get ready but whatever, it is what it is.  I made as many arrangements as I could with my bills.  My short term disabilty from my job stopped payments due to an investagation.  I gave them all the info I had on time, I don't know what to say.  Maybe I will get suprized and win the lotto.

    Good luck with your upcoming surgery. I will be praying for you. Also hope everything works out with your disability. I have had experience with that as well. Sending hugs your way. Thank goodness you have family support. Christine
