| Maybe they will overnight it if it doesn't get there today. Are you having a fixation or soft-tissue work only?

| I keep thinking about you, and the long haul you have for recovery, but I keep thinking it will be worth it. Please ask John to update us on here or send me or someone a message so he can let us know how it went. Lots of prayers headed in your direction. Enjoy what you can of the rest of the weekend.

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | Thank you everyone for all your kind words. It has been a long ( almost 15 years) and hard road. I am not looking forward to it but if it at least brings me back to pain level 8 I will be happy. Hugs and puppy kisses to all

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | They are going to send it overnight. I hate disorganization. I am OCD. It drives me nuts. I am getting a Bilateral Laminectomy and Discectomy on L3-4 and L4-5

| MY thoughts and prayers are with you. My daughter ( 29 ) had back surgery in January, she is doing very well, this should have been done years ago for her but because of her age they held off, she has less pain now, I wish you the very best and pray you to will have no pain...

YT 2000 Club Member | Hi Teri, I will be lifting you up in my prayers. I believe in the power of prayer. I believe in the skill of the doctor you will have. Give this whole thing over to Jesus and let Him carry you through it. I did that with my mastectomy. It was so tough. I said this prayer before surgery, "I will clothe myself in the white light of Jesus and only good things will come to me." Whatever you face, He gives you the strength and comfort for it. This life is filled with pain and sorrow but "I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me!" You can! I made it through chemo, hair loss, radiation, panic attacks, anxiety depression. You will make it and be stronger and feel better. Think positive thoughts, you will get through this, Teri. We will lift your up and you will feel the power of love surround you and healing will happen! Love you, be strong and take meds to keep you calm. |

| Very often during our patients' surgeries, the braces were not delivered until the morning of surgery - often by a rep having to drive it there himself! They will get it there somehow I am certain. That hospital and that brace company will see that it gets there if they have to rent a seat on a Gulfstream or use the company jet. I had an L4-5 and L5-S1 laminectomy/diskectomy when I had my surgery but they didn't put me in my brace right away but protocols have changed drastically since. I'm praying for you and thinking of you constantly.
