Danny's surgery went well. He went in today to get some nerves cut that have been causing horrible, daily pain that affects daily life. I am not much of a worrier but I was really really really hoping that this worked. My mom's best friend, our Aunt Rita, had nerve damage that was so horribly excruciating she finally got her leg amputated. Danny's was nothing like hers but he told his surgeon he was ready to amputate than to live in this pain. My heart goes out to all those with chronic pain. I very much take my health for granted.
He had a similar surgery done a year after his first hip and got immediate relief. When we left the hospital today he thought it was better. He has some phantom pain lower in his leg, but the back pain seems to be alleviated. Keep him in your prayers. This could be a huge blessing. It seems like we have been receiving a lot of pretty awesome blessings lately. A lot to give thanks for during the season of thanks.
