    Tell your wife to hang in there

    Hello Hubby-
    Please tell your wife to hang in there during the hard time of recovery. Many on this board will say little prayer for her recovery to go well. I am also a husband (29 yrs married) and know how important it is to have wife support me.
    Good for you.
    May God walk with you.Eric

            I wish you a successful surgery and speedy recovery. Don't forget to bring plenty of reading materials for the waiting area like my boyfriend and family did. It helps a little especially since my posterior surgery was a longer than expected.

              How are all of you doing? My husband said to tell you: "Have patience when she wakes up. Whatever she says or does, just love her. Listen to the doctors, because she won't really "hear" what they say. Just take care of her and love her. The next few months will be the most important in her recovery. Don't let her push it. Do what the doctors and the therapists and nurses say to do. You'll make it through it...I did. When it is time for her to walk, encourage her strongly, but don't force. Roy" If you have any questions or anything he said to PM him. Linda
