Mama

Mama's back has been bothering her for about a month now and I got tired of waiting for her neurologist to fit her in so I took her to see our family practitioner on Friday. After an L S x-ray, it was determined that she has a vertebra out of place, and that is causing pain down her left thigh. We then went to Conway that afternoon and she had an MRI.

On Tuesday we learned that her back is seriously jacked up. She is scheduled to see a Neurosurgeon on Tuesday the 18th at 2 pm for a consultation. We will find out then what our options are, if any.

Doc says that this was probabily caused by the 10 falls that she has had this year, I'm sure that the 2 she had this weekend did not help matters any. Her fall on Saturday night resulted in a black right eye that makes her look like she went half a round with Jermaine Taylor.

She is now using a rolling walker to help her get around.

I'll update more after the appointment on Tuesday, but we could really use your prayers.

Love you all, annabanana

Please tell your mom we're thinking about her and she's in our prayers.

It is time for me to do a new post. But wouldn't you rather me be working on your quilt top? :)
