Impending Surgery

I haven't been on here in a while. Wednesday I am going under the knife. I have tried not to whine, but it has really sucked for a while.

So, Wednesday I will be having disc replacement surgery in my lower back. Discs L4-L5 and L5-S1 will be removed and then replaced with a prosthetic.

I am not allowed to leave my house for 3 weeks and I will be off work for at least 3 months. The doctor said he would rather me be off the full 4.5-6 months, but I don't think I can afford to be off that long since Worker's Compensation has recently said they don't want to pay me.

Either way the surgery will happen and I will fight it out in court later to try to get them to pay the debt we are about to incur. Please keep me in your prayers and if you get bored, I'll be here.

I hope that everything gets better soon. I will say a little prayer for you. Hang in there!
