You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I've always suspected that the brunette would make the blue eyes pop. Looks awesome, Steph.

Not javachik

...thought she was just going to be getting the same surgery again that she had ten years ago (for Stenosis), but now that it's a new surgery

Epic, I have a bit of experience to share. First, if it’s stenosis, read this: [link]

My mother had a 5-hour back surgery (at age 91!) and did great ... then we read this article later and wondered if she could have had it. It would have been so must less stressful on her, although my mother on morphine? Wouldn’t have missed it for the world! Yee ha!

Then, a co-worker who had a disk problem found a surgeon to do this surgery where bits of his disk were vacuumed out. It’s one special guy in LA. My coworker is thrilled. He was in constant pain for years, and now has no more. He’s SO HAPPY.

My best friend had the kind of disk fusion where the person is filleted, a rib is removed & blenderized with cadaver bone, then the slurry is put inside titanium rings to grow into a fused spine. She’s mentioned that there’s an on-line board for people who are/have had that.

Lastly, I had a spinal nerve root block, which was great.

Good color on you, Steph. It's not every blonde that can pull off brunette (or vice versa if you ask me).

move out and draw fire

That's a beautiful color, Tep! You look fab!

Today had one last ass-kick for me: Mal has a mark on his shoulder that's either a dentition mark from another kid who got a complete mouthful of bite, or ringworm.

I'm going to bed.

(Although now I want a tattoo representing my motherhood...maybe "If Momma Ain't Happy, Ain't Nobody Happy.")

a rib is removed

I wonder if they could do that with Hubby. He has extra ribs, so it's not like he's be losing anything.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

"If Momma Ain't Happy, Ain't Nobody Happy."

Hells yeah.

Now tagless for your comfort.

That's our family motto, Raq. I hope it was a bite and not ringworm. FWIW, Liv still has a scab where Owen bit her last week.

If it helps with a little solidarity, I got pooped on this morning when helping Owen get out of his footie pj's when he was trying to climb onto the toilet.

Wow, Teppy! I thought the new color would look good, but, but, wow!
