My sweet, wonderful, precious, funny, GORGEOUS, loveable, husband has been experiencing EXTREME back pain since December. His legs go numb, all the way to the ankles and toes sometimes. We discovered he has an old spinal fracture that has caused his L5 vertebrae to slip out of place, slide forward and press on the nerve.
The answer.... surgery. I'm going to have a little moment of transparency here... I'm kinda scared. I know that our Heavenly Father is in control and I'm sooo glad He is. I just can't seem to ignore my humanness and not have a twinge of the butterflies. He will be in the hospital for 3-5 days and then lots of round-the-clock nursing from yours truly, for only God knows how long.
We leave tomorrow and the surgery is scheduled for Wed. If you think about us, please say a prayer. Peace, SWIFT healing, safety, peace.....
