I’m having a complete spinal fusion. (my entire spine will be one long bone) It’s a very high-risk surgery and I need to be in the best condition to get the best result. No surgeon will even touch me for this unless I’m at least 6 weeks smoke-free.
Over the last year, I’ve lost 55 pounds and been hitting myself with vitamins and minerals. I was supposed to be sunbathing this summer, but it was just too hot. I’m trying to get in as much as I can now before it’s too late.
Wow, I’m impressed. Prayers for a successful surgery, a great outcome, and a rapid recovery.

Congratulations! Other than (presumably) lots of back pain, how do you feel?
