Mom has to have surgery in a few days on her back she has a herniated disk among other things they have to remove a peice of bone from her spine and fuse her back together with screws the recover time is 4-6 months she has to go through physical therapy as well as pretty much learn how to walk again . There is a high chance she may be come parylized from this please keep her and my fam in your prayers . Shes scared as we all are its hard to stay postive they inserted an epidural in her yesterday for pain relief it seems to be working shes doing okay . I told her she needs to do exactly as they tell her to so that she heals . Ugh its gonna be a long next few weeks.
