50. My wife has issues like that

Sat Jun 14, 2025, 04:13 PM

Jun 2025

Micro lumbar discectomy in the late ‘80’s

Spinal decompression L-4, L-5, S-1 in 2016

Two surgerical procedures immediately after the decompression to clean out infections

Adult scoliosis correction in 2023

Pain and numbness and weakness in her right leg, pain in her hips, goes to a pain doctor for injections every 6 months or so

Just one thing after another

But we went to a protest today!
