Patsy,
I will be thinking & praying for you this week as you have this additional surgery...God's Grace and Peace be with you...
I totally understand your pain with the Degerative Disk Disease (I also suffer with it...)it is NO FUN... and I am also hoping that as I continue the weight loss, that this will help...
I am also a self pay and have NO MORE MONEY...so I understand your fear of continuing problems....My thoughts and prayers will continue to be with you...Let us know how you are doing...
Blessings, Debbi
