Prayers, please, POST SURGERY-SEE POST 102! :) :)

[Pinot's Mom]

Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers. I am just so worried; for Coop to show any pain means he's in such distress.

I had a spinal lamenectomy (sp) in Jan 2005, on my L4-5 and it gave me instant relief, unlike I had known in over 30 years, despite morphine and so many other narcotics. I still say it was one of the best decisions I ever made. Due to a congenital defect, I'll also need surgery on the L3-4 (above the first surgery) but, I'll be so happy to be relieved. Spinal stenosis sucks. It didn't seem long until I was able to do more activities than I had in all those years. I hope and pray that Coop will feel like his old self again (sing in that shower Man!). He has 2 wonderful nurses.

Sorry I didn't reply to this thread sooner. Surgery sucks in any case, but hey, if it relieves him even a little it's for the best. I'm sorry you have to deal with this now, especially so close to the holidays. I'll be thinking of you and your husband.

Maggie, I sure hope that Coops surgery will go well. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

[Queen of Poop]

Hoping he can get the relief he so needs soon. Hugs all around.

I am just now seeing this. Your first entry broke my heart. I hope you're both blessed with a successful surgery. May happiness enter your life again soon.
