I have been keeping up on everyone by the reading the posts. The pain meds make it hard enough to read, much less post. I am doing fine, as well as can be expected. have lots of support from my family. My days consisits of walking 3/4 -1 mile a day 2-3 times a day and taking a bath. It is surprising how much time that takes out of my day.
Trying to do little things aroung the house and play games or whatever I can do with my boys. I save most of my energy for them. They have been real troopers. If th house gets a bit cluttered, so be it. If I try to read or watch TV, I fall asleep. Made my first big outing on Saturday, went to lunch with the family.
Sleeping is still a big issue, I think I still have my days and nights messed up.
Very proud of Lynette and Laura, sounds like you are doing great. Lets just keep doing what we are told t do and do it to the proper amount of activiity without pushing it.
Was glad to read the blog about not rushing off the pain killers because I had a bad night tonight trying to quit the oxycotin. I am off the morning dose, but I guess I still need the night does to help me sleep.
Keep in touch, I will do the best I can. This took over 30 minutes to write in its self, so bare with me.
Go back to Dr. on April 29 to find out how big a correction we acheived. He is hoping to have done better that expected. I have grown 2 inches. I hear the Rockets (Housotn Basketball Team) are looking for a new center.
Will ge in touch soon.

P.S. If any of this is incoherent blame the oxicotin, vicotin, and valium.....Not to mention merilax, milk of magnesia, and ducolax
Can't say how much this forum has helped me, even if I am more of a voyer than a writer. My sister has really enjoyed it too. Thanks for all the support.
