Just an update on a personal note. Mom had major back surgery yesterday and everything went extremely well. Over the last several years she has really struggled with pain and immobility.
They removed a cyst that was in her spine which stopped the flow of spinal fluid, put in a few rods and pins.
Recovery will be slow but all of her friends at the hospital are taking great care of her.
For those who don't know Mom went to nursing school at Methodist Hospital in Oak Cliff and graduated in the late 50's. She worked her entire career there and retired about 4 years ago. Needless to say she was and still is an icon not only in the surgery area but the entire hospital. She did it all from heart surgery to some of the earliest transplant procedures.
She assembled her own "dream team" to do this procedure on her back and it looks like everything went great!
Thanks for all the prayers....now the hard work and rehab begins!
