My cervical fusion surgery scheduled for tomorrow is a “GO”! I’ve had about 17 surgeries total and this is the first time I’ve been fearful. I’ve heard of so many horror stories about neck/cervical surgeries. The worst part “so-far” has been having to stop taking my arthritis meds because they will hinder the fusion healing properly. After 5 days, I’m already hobbling. No telling what I’ll be like after 6 more weeks of not having them.
I’d appreciate prayers tomorrow between 9-11 a.m.
Obviously, there will be no more recipes this week. After the weekend, we’ll see what I’m capable of doing. If you like, I could send you Gary’s twice weekly recipe shares, but I think probably most of you recipe “junkies” have probably signed on with him. We’ll just have to play it by ear and see what I’m up to. You all take care and I’ll be back as soon as possible.
Hugs, Jodi
