A big Irish Catholic family and a good shrink. I have come to the realization that I probably wouldn’t be upset if I never wore a badge again. That’s just physically and emotionally grueling. But a guy’s still gotta eat.

Prayed.
praying for you
I’ll be thinking of you.
You are on my list CC. God bless you.
Prayers Up!
Prayers up.
Good luck to you.
We’re real estate brokers. When I left state service I didn’t know any thing about RE. Had to really go to school and hook up with a great broker. About 4 years ago I really hit my stride.
There’s lots to do. I chose something where I could work at home and set my own schedule.
Prayers be with you CC. God will see you through it. My B/F is going in tomorrow morning also to have rods inserted into his spine.(cervical??) I will keep you in my prayers as I will be praying all through tomorrow. LOL! God is my Strength.
Dear Lord, I love you and I need you now... Amen.
Glad to hear you’re doing better. I’ve already posted the “disclaimer” in the body of this post so I’m “covered” for weird posts. BTW I’m trying out a new “Hercule Poirot” emoticon =^3

Prayers up and sent for your B/F

Praying for you.
You’ll be back to work in no time- prayers
I waited too long between my third and fourth lower back surgeries and now have to live with a mild limp on my left side.
Prayers for you for a full recovery with full function restored. Vitamin B-6 and B-12 supplements are a MUST post surgery to help with nerve healing/regeneration.
Prayers.
===============================
You GOT'EM in SPADES!!
Take care and Godspeed.
This sounds less invasive and more hopeful than the spinal fusion I underwent 4 years ago.
I’m back lifting weights and pretty active. (at 61)
Prayers up for you!
Prayers up
Prayers, of course, and all the best!
When that happens make DARN SURE you don't over-do it and do what your doctors and physical therapists tell you to do. If you follow their directions and DON'T OVER-DO it because you're feeling better, you'll be fine.
I have confidence you'll do well post surgery. The newer techniques are amazing and the recovery periods are much shorter. My first lower back surgery in 1993 took me six months to recover from. That was to do what is now a simple micro-laminectomy. I had an L4-L5-L5/S1 fusion in 2009 and was walking around normally within two weeks. That same surgery in 1993 would've had me laid up for months.
As I said, the techniques have matured greatly. Will keep you in my prayers tomorrow. Best wishes and let us know how you're doing after.
