Pain in the Neck...

Here is a brief update in what is to come for me(mommy) in the near future in regards to my back and neck problems. This upcoming Tuesday, the 29th, I will go in and have a Myelogram and CT scan done. From the scans taken and from the information in my medical chart; the doctors and my physical therapist will meet and determine if I am eligible for surgery. I will be knocked out, scanned, and then after some time in recovery, be sent home to stay on my back for 18-24hrs. Failure on my part to do this(with the exception of using the bathroom) could result in two major things--a very severe headache-worse than any migraine I've ever had or I'll have seizures. Hmmmmm, I think I'll be good and follow all the instructions given to me and veg out on the couch. The entire procedure will take roughly four hours. Jason will be there through the whole thing. The kids will be over with my parents and Aunt Suza. We are really thankful and grateful to have family close that can and do help us out so much. Anyway, I'll post at least one more time before then and then later once we have the results and have talked with the doctor(s) I'll post then about this. And of course I'll post about the two most important people to us-Mr. H and Miss E.
