surgery update
So Jay was supposed to have knee surgery on Monday, but it looks like that is going to be postponed. He fell earlier this week and "tweaked" his back. While he was getting dressed today, he felt his back pop, like it's done prior to the four previous times he's had back surgery. We called his doctor's office. They instructed us to come to the ER for imaging. We've now been here for almost 7 hours, only to find out that they can't do an MRI through the ER, so Jay has to be admitted. And we have no idea when we'll be able to actually get an MRI. So, we'll be spending the night tonight for sure in the hospital, and that's about all I know. If I were a betting woman, I'd bet a good amount of money that Jay will be in for his fifth back surgery in the near future. However, this one will probably be the worst, as his doctor told him after the last one that if this happens again, he won't operate unless it's to do a fusuion. So, we'll have to wait and see what happens. I'll try to keep updating as much as I can. Your thoughts and prayers are appreciated.
