Briar Rose 7457 asked if I would ask everyone to remember her sister...

[fklhou]

Good luck for your sister.

 

[cotye]

Hope things went well. Continued good thoughts.

 

[C.Ann]

My prayers to your sister.. I hope she'll be on the mend real soon.. Just remind her not to try to do too much too soon.. (I know - easier said than done.. LOL)

 

[Briar Rose 7457]

exactly -- she's already chafing at the bit -- she's not allowed to drive a car for the next two weeks and it's making her nuts.

 

[Dan Murphy]

Glad to hear she is doing well, BR. My best wishes for her full recovery.

 

[fklhou]

I am glad that your sister is okay BR.

Make her listen to the docs, Briar Rose.

In the immediate post-op period, if she tries to do too much before everything is healed up in there, there is a chance of a RE-HERNIATION.


That's why it is so important not to put undue stress on her back until it is completely healed.
