Great news, Good news, Great news, and Bad news

Went to see Dr. Hill today. He did the surgery on my back..... in order!!!

The fusion of L3, L4, and L5 was successful and is completely healed - that is great news....

I do not have to ware my brace unless I want to or need to.... good news...

I can start taking my arthritis medicine..... great news.....

Dr. Hill is leaving Johnson City and moving to Paducah, KY in July..... bad news.....

So as a final gesture... he took a picture of me so I could post it on my blog.....

Enjoy!!!!






















In case you need help, that is my incision from the surgery... that is his finger holding down my pants so the whole scar is visible!!!

and.... I get to go to PT for a few weeks!!!! yeehaaa

Here is my latest shawl..... It is White and Blue (in case that is not clear in the picture) and the yarn is Mohair (50% mohair; 40% wool; and 10% nylon..........


Took Jill dog to the vet today for annual check-up and shots.... She is completely docile at the vet - wish I could find that secret at home.... She is now reclining in my chair - lucky dog..

My favorite NASCAR driver won yesterday - Tony Stewert....
