With all that has been going on(lost a very close relative 11/02), I have decided to bite the bullet and get going on my surgery. I just can't believe it is already here. I really can't see how I can possibly handle any more stress. I am so scared. Here we go on the roller coaster again, I just hope I don't cancel this time. Hubby is going with me to understand the surgery. A cervical disectomy with fusion. c5-c6,c6-c7.
ARGH!!!

heck I have one of those, no biggie. lol

seriously you will do great, you have to have it and you will better after.

Are you going to do it before the holidays?

I know that this first holiday will be a very sad and difficult time for you and your family. But the members of your family, want you to be with them, and I am sure your son would want the family to have the holiday traditions continue, if only in his honor this season.

Love you and pray for your family often.

    Getting an all over tan!  Riding in a boat on the river or in a convertable with the top down.  Watching a parade outside.  Finishing my secret garden(where I was going to get that all over tan).  Walking on the beach.  Riding my bicycle.  Taking a walk in the park.  Doing more landscaping.  Nature photography-my dream job.  Going across the mountains or flying in a plane.  Just sitting...
