My sister came over for the surgery and stayed and helped with dinners and the dog .... thanks Kari-Ann. My father comes up and checks on me too ... thanks Len.

Gonna be slow going for awhile, the doc said it looked good and should be ok after 6 weeks or so.

Can you ask the doc if inversion is ok in your case? i've done it and GREATLY helped my neck and back...

Get well soon Chief,

Went for a ride yesterday, just putting around with the wife, but, did a couple wheelies and jumped a couple of culverts, was fun,

Man, sorry to hear this Michael. Push the car in the corner till you get your back healed up.

Please rest easy and know you have friends here whether you can be at work on your Camaro or not. I wish you all the best and a speedy recovery.



Yep. I simply pasted it into Google and that's what it spit back at me. I was merely an interested guy with a keyboard and mouse. I had not seen your feedback, sorry for the delay.

I'm getting better every day .... as long as I don't do something stupid. You just let me know when it's coming and I'll get some guys together to pick it up for me!

Thanks,

Michael

I double ruptured the L3-L4 disc Dec. 16th 2001, surgery Jan 8th 2002 at age 43. It hasn't slowed me down much at all, actually I deal with less severe pain now than the 20 years prior to the rupture. Good luck on the recovery and DO NOT push it and do something stupid! That's the hardest part of the recovery process IMO.
