Bless you, T. I am so happy to read that the tumor will be gone soon.
I know that you hurt terribly, but please be careful when considering additional surgeries. I’d be tempted TODAY to go for another one myself if I thought it would help, LOL, but they won’t touch it after the last surgeon did his thing.
Lately, I’m disturbing my better half at night every time I let out a little shout. And that shout, I guarantee ya, is not caused by anything pleasant. He is on me now to have something done about my jaw bone, shoulders and back, and to get the mangled knees and my hips replaced. He insists that we not sleep apart which makes me feel guilty knowing that I’m waking him all night when he’s got to hit work early in the morning.
But, better days are ahead. And I wouldn’t know where to start with surgeries anyway since the wreckage is from head to toe. I’m too scared to have another surgeon make a cut on me. It always sounds good when you’re in terrible pain, doesn’t it? “Ah! We’ll fix ya right up!”
You’re kind of in the darned if you do and darned if you don’t position, aren’t you? Whatever you do, please keep me informed on what’s going on. You know what’s going on with me when there’s a long spell of silence, but I’ll be back around eventually.
Just be careful, and please keep posting, T. And keep that chin up. You’re a strong woman. The pain will sometimes decide that it wants to move out and cleave unto someone else for a while, even though it returns from time to time wanting to make nice and all. ;-)
Let me know if I can help you in any way, T. You know I mean that.
I keep you and yours in my prayers night and day.
HUGS,
SC
...and you know you are in my prayers every day! Is there anything they can even DO with your jaw? I didn’t know that condition allowed for corrective surgery?! I miss you when the pain keeps you away, so I pray all the time that your pain is relieved.
I’m really worried about doing anything more with my spine...the last few things didn’t work out so well, why would anything else? They will have to give me some pretty strong assurances that it will be different. I need my hands to work, but I also need some help with the pain levels :(
