Has anyone heard from Molalla1?

I was going to give him one more month before I started knocking on his door, glad drssg checked first. Back surgery can be hit or miss, I known several that have had it done and my Dr says it's his last recommendation, it dont sound like fun, but glad Mollala is pulling through....

Good for you, You're a tough old bird and I'm sure you can handle it. In 2 weeks I can't call you an old bird anymore as I have another birthday and will catch up to you again for a while. Take it easy for a while then do what your therapists say and you'll be back to new before you know it. There are a lot of us pulling for you.

Well, had the surgery done on the 11th. It was a 5 hour surgery with 2 doctors, one cut me open from the front and the other cut me open from the back . They say everything went well but it's going to be a while healing (2-3 months minimum) . . . had 3 lower disc replaced/fused. Seeing how my bedroom is upstairs I got a hospital bed in my dinning/front room (it's one large joining room) so I don't have to crawl up stairs and I have a large tv in the front room that I can see well. Insurance paid for the hospital bed. I am moving around some and am getting better each day but it's a very slow process, they say I should gain back about 1 1/2 to 2". Thanks all for the good thoughts.

Good luck on your healing.

That is great news. Glad to have you back, Brother. I've missed your sarcastic wisdom.
