A quick note.
Having back surgery Tuesday 7:30AM, disk removal/inter-body fusion. Good prognosis.
God's got a plan, and will see us through. Long story, been putting this off for a couple years.
Thanks for prayers,
Joe
Hi, Joe-Prayers sent and I wish you the best of luck in your surgery. I'll bet you'll feel so much better, you might just have to get a new guitar to celebrate! We'll be thinking about you.
Bill :GRN>
Good vibes headin your way. :GRN>
Best wishes for a successful surgery and speedy recovery Joe
:mellow:
Good to hear from you guys. Two days and counting. Hope Deb finds out what's causing her pain.
good luck
One day and counting. But I did go look at some guitars this morning after church. Good ol' Sam Ash just got in a slew of Larrivees. I was looking at I believe it was an OM-60, rosewood back and sides, with a tobacco sunburst top. A beautiful guitar. Perhaps in the future...
Blessings and prayers for you, the surgeon(s) and all who will take part in your surgery and recovery. I'm going to be gone for a week, but I hope to check in a week from Monday, and find that all went well and you are well on your way to recovery.
As for my headaches, my boss (bless him) bought me a new computer monitor that seems to have solved most of the problem. I need to work more on muscle relaxation. They seem to be stress/strain related. We are grateful the the MRI turned out normal.
Deb

Hi all. First emails. Just now getting around a little better. So much hurts, but is getting better. Have a back brace for weeks, anytime I am out of bed. Virtually no where to be "comfortable". God's taking us through this. Some details latter. Just a little at a time.
Our thanks to all for prayers and continued prayers. This is such a great group.
God Bless,
Joe and Karen
Continued prayers for healing, pain relief, strength and patience. Keep us posted when you are able.
Deb
yep, sending up timbers for you.
Best wishes, Joe, for a speedy recovery. Do as the Docs tell you as we want you back pickin' and grinnin' soon!
Best of luck to you from here Joe!.. :WNK>
My prayers are with you for a full and speedy recovery,
Everything always turns out ok,i have to remind myself of that too sometimes.
Dave
great to see you back in the forum..
Hi all. I'm getting a little stronger each day. Still get weak quick. I have more compassion and love than ever to anyone that has undergone major surgery. It's hard.
Things are getting a little better each day.
My schedule to come....sit up for a while, anytime out of bed, in back brace. After a bit, take a bed rest. Repeat for the next three weeks.
I have a great PT person. He's gotten me lose and around as much as possible. Same with the home Nurse.
PT, Robert, says I can play guitar 15 mins twice a day, for a while. Hard to do in a brace, but I surely practice with not looking at left hand, and new simple fingerstyle melodies and bridges.
Thanks for prayers and good wishes. Going to lay down now.
Joe
Joe, good to hear that you are making progress!
Good news Joe!
good to hear things are getting better.
