953 nut 57,755 #1 Posted February 6 Thank you for all the prayers today. My wife's spinal injection procedure went according to plan this morning and now that the local anesthesia has worn off she if pain free. Having been using a wheel chair and otherwise sedentary for a couple of months her legs are not steady. They don't want her to return to PT or exert herself until the doctor sees her in March so progress will be slow. She will try walking with a walker tomorrow. We will be quite a pair both being on walkers. 4 3 22 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kpinnc 13,659 #6 Posted February 6 (edited) My wife had back surgery several years ago and was warned she would feel better in a couple days BUT no exertion of any kind, no picking anything up from the floor, nothing! Of course she felt better and picked up a bag of groceries and hurt her back. Almost ended up having another surgery. It happens quite often. Tell your wife to take it easy! She's in our prayers too!

When we got to the hospital yesterday I parked the car and went in to get a wheel chair. One hand on the walker and the other on the wheel chair, brought it out for my wife, guess that qualifies as multitasking. Once my wife was in the chair I put the walker behind her chair to give her an assist going up the short ramp, wish I had a video of that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Usually when I give my wife an assist, it will up with me getting a scolding--think Benny Hill. Great news on the injection and pain relief. You two take care of each other. A good wife is a blessing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
