Today, I went to my spine doctor for appointment for the scheduled surgery next week. He was looking at my MRI scan films
The doctor explained where the spinal abscess that had accumulated in my thoracic spine and which part had to be operated on and attach the titanium.
Guess what, I am to be operated on using Image-guided surgery. I'll have to spend nearly a week in the hospital for the post-operative recovery. That's my father with me.
In this pic I discussed about my concerns about the operation.
To those who helped resteemed and upvoted my "miracle votes post" (I promise to reply to commenters), you know who you are and you are many and awesome in my eyes. May God Bless you all.
Follow me as @darthnava: "Steemers unite!"
!
Keeping posting updates.
And I will keep supporting the best I can.
Good luck and stay strong!

Hope all goes well and you are able to fully recover Darth!
Guys, also make sure to re-steem as well to your followers :) I am doing the same, though i am brand new and only have 60 something. Every re-steem counts because they could re-steem it too :)

My ex wife had to have spinal surgery. (Multiple vertebrae fused)
One thing to expect ... and I will not sugar coat it. The pain after the surgery will be horrendous. For her, it took 4 days until the "pain team" found the right prescription to get the pain under control. Her pain was worse after the surgery than it was before for about 1 year. But then, the benefit of the surgery surpassed the pain. By 18 months, she was delighted that she had performed the surgery. Just remember, the first days/weeks/months can be a little rough, but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Good luck and God bless.

That is awesome. We expect to hear you're having a great recovery. Maybe we can create a fund so you don't have to eat hospital food for a week. Stay strong. I hate needles and hospitals so I'm praying for you.
Always yours,

It sounds like you have the top technology working in your favor. My father died to an inoperable brain tumor, and if we had Image-Guided surgery then, it may have worked out differently. It's about the least invasive form of surgery available, so I hope your recovery will be minimal.

I'm glad you were able to raise what you need.
I cannot imagine the things you explained here about your surgery.
I pray for little discomfort and fast recovery. You are brave to be writing about it. If it was me I'd stick those big words in the corner and hide til the day when I cannot avoid surgery.
