Hi Everybody,
I have 24 hours to go before my surgery! I feel like my back and I have been struggling with this scoliosis thing off and on for 55 years and I am more than ready to do something about it!
I plan to do everything I am told to do in the hospital but I am apprehensive about going home--starting with the ride home. I've been noticing the bumpy roads latey. Some of the bumps hurt my back now and I can't imagine what it will be like after surgery. I am also not looking forward to needing so much help once I get home. I keep telling myself how lucky I am that my children are grown (four married boys--six grand kids and another coming in Oct) and that my husband and I are retired--a big plus from what I have been reading.
I want to thank you all for your advise and espically "Dr. Rand's girls"--they have been just wonderful to me.
To be honest I am looking for good thought and prayers to come my way tomorrow morning. There are so many kind and caring people on this forum.
Thank you all,
Kathy
