Surgery next week

Great news, after seeing the surgeon yesterday he is going to perform a Lumber Laminectomy where he will remove the pressure by opening the spinal canal and widening it from the back. He will remove bone and other tissue pressing on the affected nerve. Then they can slowly take me off the medication that leaves me fumbling for words in the morning when talking to other teachers and students.

Ha ha the surgeon took a look at my legs and said my left thigh was waisting because I'm limping and is not getting my full weight on it. No wonder it gives way when i forget about it. You have to laugh. ..

All the very best to you and I hope you have a very speedy recovery.

take care of yourself. :Wave-Hello:
