Update on Hubby's Back from injury at Work.
Okay so we went to The doctor for his back and we found out not so good news. He has two disc that are damage and they are going to fuse them and a surgery that is called a 360 spinal.. It starts in the stomach and then they turn him over and finish through the back. I know what your thinking ohh man jeezzz.. We thought the same thing. We looked at the two options that was presented to us. From the doctor He said James is a good candidate for the surgery. But he does not want us to just jump into it. We let them know about three or four days later we wanted to do it. 1. you can be on pain management the rest of your life, or 2. Have the surgery you have a 70 percent chance it will be better in the long run., 50 percent less pain that what he has now. There are lot of risk to this do not get me wrong, dealing with his front kidneys, male organ even. Trying to be as polite as I can. Other issues there were almost mind boggling how it affects you besides just your back. The have a vascular doctor coming in during the surgery too. Besides that Other surgeon on the back. So they have to have an okay time for both to have the procedure done. Beside the two disc he has a pinch nerve that: We found out that is affecting the leg that he had surgery on.. Sooo... the surgery is getting approved and then we will have it done. Stressed ! yes Worried of the outcome ! Yes Terrified to death! Yes! Expecting the best. Yes i know god will do his will with him and my family.. So i am really trying to count my blessing that I have now. And think positive. So I am just wishing , it Would be great if it was before all the wonderful holidays hit. So at least we can enjoy them together, and a little less stress. So please Please keep the prayers going for my family in this rough time And him and my family in your hearts too. Thanks so very much for even taking time to read my blog. Any comments would be appreciated.
