Hi .
Sorry. HAd a long day yesterday and 11 hours driving. Hurting too much when arrived back home..

I know I am having a total knee replacement next year asap, and I Also will need to have spine aurgery to get my left leg feeling back in it and hopefully the neorosurgeon can also clean up some of the impinged nerves on my right side lower spine facets while he frees up a nerve on the left side.. If so it is likely I could actually walk normally after the knee replacement..

SO, needing both, the question becomes which one first? I think the spine surgery will heal quicker. The knee will require several days in the hospital after surgery and then some time afterward in therapy to be able to walk again and heal... You get yer very own pain ball and a button to push with this surgery..

De, did you get one of those with your heart surgery?

SO, I am trying to figure out which to have first that allows the least amount of time between the two procedures that need to be done...

If they are not done, I am looking at a wheelchair.. Yep, its that good. I do not want that.. I prefer to be upright and walking and working with people solving problems..

SO, if I am absent some days, its because it is difficult increasingly for me to sit at a office chair like this or at the main computer.

I cannot feel my left leg at all right now.. Been here too long already. SO I have to go.

Goodnight.. I will stop by when I can..

micro...

… And we have not heard from micro since Thursday night. That's not usual for him. Here's to hoping that all is well!
