Frown Older son surgery at Hershey med 2/22

My o,dest that has a plethora of medical issues from lumbar, shoulder to cervical and migraines is having a cervical fusion Friday morning. This is going to be very difficult for him, being in the collar when claustrophobic about t shirts will be recovery problems, but he surgery is so troublesome for me after going through all of De's surgery s to only be worse.
Along with caring for family, more days of full care for son and dgs are going to be physically challenging.

Any prayers and supportive thoughts for all to go well are appreciated my dear friends.

I am driving down not quit 2 hrs south on Thursday as he surgery is early Friday, and weather to be snowy again

Pretty fretful right now.
Di

Sending positive thoughts your way for a smooth recovery.

Sending you a bunch of prayers, and your son some too. And some thoughts for some prayers.

I also am sending your grandson some prayers and thoughts. I think he needs some also.

Dear Di,

Best wishes for your son's surgery and recovery. Hope everything goes in the best way possible and that after the ordeal is over he will be stronger than ever and pain free.

I can't even imagine how terribly stressful this must be for you. Keeping you in my thoughts and sending lots of hugs and love.

Dear Di,

I wish that you had help --- at least with house work and cooking and laundry. That would lighten the load a little.

'Sending you big hugs and lots of good thoughts in the coming days.

Thanks everyone, and Jo, you were there during the failures of De's surgery s to understand my apprehension.
Really worried this is the right thing to do. Surgeon is going after the pain from brachial p,excuse and not sure cervical surgery will even resolve the problem, or potentially make it worse.

Really sucks for him to not manage the pain and need surgery.

Di, we will all be praying for this to be the answer.

And for your strength to be even more.

You deserve this to work even more.
