| Daddy's home The nerve block is working! I took Daddy home from the hospital today He is still in some pain, but nothing compared to what he was when he was admitted to the hospital. He is able to walk using the walker, and was able to sit in HIS chair this evening. I am so happy for him. He's going back on the 17th and the surgeon is going to make the decision as to whether he will be able to cauterize the nerve endings in his back. That will give him permanent pain relief!

| Prayers for your dad and for your family tonight. It probably feels good for him to be in his own home.

| Thanks for the update! Tell your Dad that we will continue to pray for him. Having had 3 backsurgeries myself, I know the pain he is going through.

Back surgery can be quite painful and it is not always successful, but sometimes it is the only option. I hope your dad has a good outcome, whatever route he chooses.
