Update on surgery
Just a quick update. Went to the doc's for a final checkup and everything is a go! Surgery on Wednesday @ 2pm. It will take at least four hours and I'll spend two days in the hospital. 8-12 weeks for recovery...?!? I am soooo ready for this!

Okay, I have a date!
Just wanted to update you on my situation. I will be going in for surgery on November 18th @ 2pm. I'll probably keep up the art up to the first week of November, but then I have to clean everything up and get ready for the surgery.
Isn't this sad, to take over my livingroom like th… Continue

Just got back from the docs!
Although my scans and tests show that I have compression on the spinal cord, my body is not showing the effects, so the doc recommends that I take a cortizone shot. He asked me if I can live with what I have right now (yeah, if I didn't have to work!). He says 50/50 the shot will work. If not, then surgery will be the next step. 80/20 in that case.
Sooooo, I have to wait for the shot approval and see if it works before I… Continue

Man, oh Man...
I wanted to give you an update on me this time!
I went to the doc's today to find out the results of my MRI. I don't have a "foreign body" in my elbow after all! good thing.
Bad thing, I have bulging discs in my neck that are compressing the spinal cord... hence, the numbness and pain. The doc figured it was serious enough that I was taken off work immediately and she is referring me to a neurosurgeon. I have an appointment with him next Wednesday.
On a lighter note (not!),… Continue

Garrett Oslin
It's with a sad heart that I come to tell you that Garrett passed away Friday morning.
I don't have much to say about it, other than his grampa (my co-worker) was at work today, because our wonderful company doesn't offer days off for bereavement of a grandchild. Isn't that crazy? Mark received an attendance point for calling to tell the supes his grandchild died.
On that sad note (I'm sorry!), I'm going to bed.

How are you? I do see that you are having some back/neck issues and I will pray for you for relief. I hate to bring this up but your work space does not look good for your spine... is there some way you could find a spot to better support your posture?
How's your family doing?
I'm assuming you might be on leave from work but are you driving the bus these days when working?
Didn't you move?
I see you are making some awesome books/journals, do you still make dolls and or the stamps?
I am looking forward to catching up...
love ya,
malinda

- Lotus: I got the message from Dan about the young man, Garrett, who is entering hospice and would like to receive cards. I wrote a haiku poem for him today, that I am sending him inside a card. I was deeply touched by his story. Thank you for alerting us and making us aware of a small thing we can do to aid in his comfort.
