WOW!!! WOW Momz... all I can say here is WOW!

An extra vertabre?! Yes, you are very fortunate to have such a thorough surgeon! I am SO HAPPY for you and your family that you show such improvement so quickly!!

Thank You God!

Sounds like you have a healthy respect for the requirement to go easy and take your time durring this long recovery. Glad you made the disability call to SS, too. You need it. Taking your pain meds ON TIME is very important - no need to worry about addiction - in a couple weeks you'll be thrilled to not take them any more.

Gee whiz, I'm just so tickled for you!
