Today's the day--my husband has been taken to the OR for an L4 to S1 spinal fusion. We're a bit nervous, as Uncle Lou, as Jeff calls this monster, has been picking up the pace over the past couple of months, but with luck he'll get some pain relief and be able to back off of some of the drugs he's taking. Here's hoping for a successful surgery and quick getaway (estimates range from one day to 3 to 5 days in the hospital, depending on who is talking.
