For those who have been around for a while I just wanted to let everyone know that TPM had successful back surgery yesterday and is recovering in the hospital. She had been in a tremendous amount of pain (and other symptoms) due to Cervical Spondylosis with Myelopathy and will hopefully experience a lot of relief after recovering from surgery. She has been a knowledgeable and caring part of this community for a long time so join me in wishing her a full recovery!

Can't keep her down for long! Wishing her a speedy recovery and welcoming her return.
It seems almost poetic that HSBBW went down when TPM was under the knife. Get well quickly TPM.

Hey Barb, so glad to hear things went well. Hopefully, this leads to pain free mobility and enjoyment of things just about the time we start getting back to normal!
Glad to hear things went well. Get out on the beach and let the sunshine help speed the recovery :-)
God speed on her recovery. We will try to keep the place tidy in her absence
Glad to hear the surgery went well. Heal up soon. I am sure she will be back online soon if she is having to recuperate... unless next season of Ozark's is released....

Wishing a speedy recovery for Tiger Paw Mom! #GoTigers
So sorry to hear that she needed this surgery but hopes and prayers that this will turn out well.
Thank you everyone so very much. This has been one of my life's greatest challenges. Needless to say, I haven't been a happy camper. I had 2 vertabrae replaced, with fusion. My pre op symptoms are subsiding and I get fitted for a permanent brace on wed, 4-6 weeks. This medical procedure is scary but amazing. Took surgeon an hour and 45 minutes start to finish!
Thanks again.
TPM
Prayers for a full recovery.

Well as stated above, I had cervical discs replaced almost 2 months ago and well it's been kind of hellish, though I went to my 3rd bb game tonight.
My full recovery will take 9 months approximately. PT 3x a week for almost 6 weeks now. If I am lucky my neck brace may be removed wed and I go into a soft brace and more PT. I am doing better but I may have some permanent issues left arm and hand due to the spinal cord compression. The worst is wearing a mask AND a neck brace at the same time.
Thank you all for the get well wishes!

Hang in there TPM!
Fortunately for both TPM AND her friends, her surgery was confined to a relatively inconsequential area like her neck. Now, if it had been her thumbs, limiting her ability to send and respond to text messages (especially during baseball games); this could have been really serious!
voice to text...problem solved. I heard this mask is approved with neck braces, but it may not be NIOSH approved. Popular with Yankees fans
