Prayers for you sabro, good luck today!

I am having major spine surgery on Thursday and am asking for prayers for the surgery and recovery to be successful. Thank you.

Kari, how many levels are they fusing?

prayers

...for Kari...

They wanted to fuse four levels, which would have left me pretty much immobile, but finally I found a wonderful surgeon from my approved list who is going to do a four-level laminectomy. In a laminectomy, the surgeon removes part of the lamina (bone) that covers the spinal cord, basically giving the spinal cord more room so it is not so compressed. The surgeon will also remove bone spurs which are pushing into my spinal cord. At one level, my spinal cord is being compressed to half the normal space, leaving me at great risk of paralysis if I fall, get in a car accident, or the like.

I have been waiting for surgery so long that it seems anti-climatic and I am not afraid of the surgery itself, but rather the results.

Thank you for your prayers.

Kari, good luck. I've been there and going back. It's truly a pandora's box once they open your spine.

Kari, I wish you the best for your upcoming surgery and I will keep you in my prayers for a great recovery.

Kari, My prayers to you and your family. You will be fine. God Bless

Kari...
I acknowledge Jesus standing right beside you.
Stay focused on Him.
He's faithful.

Right family?

My Dad had encroachment of his vertebrae - pushing against spinal cord and causing him terrible pain - he had the surgery and the Dr said it was the worst case he had ever seen - now my Dad feels waaaay better. Blessings and grace to you.

Testimony, I almost cried when I read your offers of help, but I am down the hill. Due to my not working for quite some time, we have had to sell our Crestline second home, and the escrow closes next week. I spent my last night in our beloved cabin last weekend. My husband will be moving whatever furniture doesn't sell this Friday and we will be leaving California in a few months.

Thank you for the kind offer--it touched me more than you know.
