Ya, most definitely brother. It's tuff bro. I can't lie. I'm getting depressed. Watching years of hard work go away. I dunno, maybe it's in my head. I been out of surgery a month now. The surgeon finally got to explain to me that they were able to replace the 2 discs with no fusion. That's gonna reduce the amount of time I'm out significantly. Thank God. I have lost range of motion in my left arm tho. Most of the pain is from nerves. One of the discs removed exploded and there are still tiny fragments in my spinal chord. I'm not taking any pain pills at all. I'm gonna start to rehab any day now. Resistance bands and stuff like that. I'll know more on my next follow up on the 4th. I'll keep ya posted Brother. Thanks for posting bro.

Merry Christmas to you and yours...
