I really need to do a "life" update but it's really the surgery that feels like it's taking over our life. We had the follow-up with the Head of Orthopaedic Surgery yesterday and (as expected) the news is not good. The compression in Todd's spinal cord is very severe (it looked horrible to my untrained eye on the MRI - like an hourglass shape) ( Read more... )

Oh my, that IS a lot to take in all at once! I am thinking of both of you and hoping everything goes well with the surgery and such. I also hope you will make it through. I can't remember, do you have family, etc in the area that you can use as a support system for yourself? Take care of both of you!

You both are going to get through this because you have each other. That Mexico trip sounds like a great idea to take his mind off things. There is a lot to think about, I'm glad you are skilled at managing your stress and not taking on the new real estate plans. Thinking good thoughts and sending good vibes for you both.
