Update

[Guest guest]

Hi all, sorry I have not updated in awhile, but here is what is going

on with me.

I am scheduled for spinal fusion and a Laminectomy on Jan. 8 2009. It

is being done by Dr. Melisi. I have full faith that this will work

after much therapy and positive attitudes. I already have a great

support system lined up for my recovery here at home. I have my best

friend Misty, my Mom, my sister-in-law Becky and a few nieghbors who

are going to chip in and help me. My insurance will also pay for ten

home health visits for PT, OT and personal care. (Ten each)

I have not been able to get to sleep lately until like 4-5 am. As

long as I am laying down it does not bother me so the pain is not the

reason. I just have alot of my mind, ie... surgery, money and etc...

My car's head gasket blew and it has cost me $800.00 to get my car

out. I finally get it back tomorrow. YIPPY!

I still have the pain as normal and I am getting over my sinus

infection although my nephew, Liam (2) is now sick with sinuses! Poor

baby! I hope everyone has an awesome and pain free Christmas if I do

not get to post again. I am looking forward to doing my Christmas

shopping next year fighting the crowds instead of ordering over the

computer because of the pain!
