Today my wife is having surgery on her neck. The procedure is called an anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). It is a surgical procedure performed to remove a degenerative disc in her neck. She has been living with an excruciating pinched nerve for almost two years. About three Months ago I had posted an inquiry a question for some information on the shots in her neck that they tried. Well, the shots did not work for her and they decided to do surgery. You can check this link out for an idea of what they are doing for her. Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion overview
This morning they are performing the procedure. Actually they will be starting in about 15 min. I am in Sacramento at U. C. Davis medical center and her surgeon is a Dr. Kim and he is the best neurosurgeon they have.
I am basically asking for all my Freeper brothers and sisters to pray for the surgeons hands to be precise and the procedure to be successful. They say it is a three hour operation and then about an hour recovery time. The Dr. said she will probably be able to go home tomorrow even. So please keep her in your prayers.

Prayers up.
My son had similar surgery in 2005 (steel plate and cadaver bone put in) after a rollover (rolled 5 times) vehicle accident. Wearing his seatbelt or likely would not have survived. He had good recovery.

That is the exact thing the Dr. said he is doing for her neck. Thanks all, I will let everyone know how it went, but I won't here anything for a minimum of 3 hours.

Prayers up; thank God shes having the surgery before Zeros MengeleCare.
Both my wife and I said basically the same thing, because in a few years they would be telling her that she does not need it. Especially considering my wife is already a paraplegic from a car accident we were in 22 years ago. So by Obama's definition she will just be a drain on the system.

We ask that you would place your protective hand upon OneVike’s wife throughout this surgery. We thank you for the skill and ability of the surgeons in this procedure. We pray that his wife will receive complete relief of her neck pain and that her recovery will be short. In Christ’s name we pray.
Amen.

You have my prayers. I had this done 1 1/2 years ago. It will be fine. I promise. When I woke up. Problem was gone. She will have to take it easy for quite some time. But it will be fine.
