Thanks for listening to me rant. I know I need to look at the big picture. I need to focus on what I still can do. Maybe I will find a new passion (that isn't so jarring on the spine & body). It's better to stay positive...which is what I'm trying to do.

Btw, I just wanted to inform you that I got a call from the hospital when I was home for lunch. My surgery is scheduled for March 19th. I'm so glad not to have to wait 8+ weeks but a bit terrified. Ready to be on the other side Again, I'll keep everyone posted.
