    Surgery on friday 29th!! NEW UPDATE : #64 !!!

    It is almost February 29th. For those who remember what happened in december, my waiting period of 3 months is over now.
    It is a double surgery. Doc #1 inserts electrodes behind my bone marrow in my spine. This is extremely painful, because I have to stay awake during this procedure.
    Doc#2 implants a neurostimulator, and makes a connection between this thing and the electrodes. General anaestesia this time.

    Please say a prayer for me, and send me tons of positive vibes

    THANK YOU !!!

    YAY it's almost here! I know that the surgery will be painful, but think of how wonderful you will feel afterwards - you've been waiting for this! You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Just think, next week at this time you will be completely pain-free! ((((hugs))))

    Well, not completely painfree! It is only the pain that is caused by that damaged nerve that will be gone...! But hey, I will be oh so happy for this!!

    As close to completely pain free as possible, then! I'll be sending positive thoughts and I'll pray. Please tell the nurse-kitties they're on duty again! [[[hug]]]

    I am praying for you, Sis - I hope during the first part they can at least sedate you a bit or SOMETHING...and I hope it is a quick part of the surgery, so you can be asleep for the rest of it!

    As my other late sister used to say about anesthetic(which she liked): "I don't want to be in the room when they're doing that!"

    Looking forward to having the nerve pain gone for you - and then maybe regular painkillers will work on the rest.

    HUGS!

    We've got two PT'ers going under the knife Friday - Daisy and Delilah's mom, Terry, is having surgery as well.


    Here's to a safe surgery and a quick recovery for you both!
