With everything my family has been through with my dads cancer we certainly don't need anything more but now my mom has some problems.
In 2000, she had surgery on her back to remove a disk and has been doing wonderfully since. Of course, since my dad got sick, she has been doing everything (up until late when he can now do some things alone). She now is having problems with her "good" leg (the sciatica she had bothered her left leg and still does sometimes but not as bad since she had the surgery). Every so often, her knee kinda goes out on her - not really though but she gets pain in her leg and can't put pressure on it. She is waiting a call back from the orthopedist to get an appointment.
Please, please, please if you can spare us some prayers, I would greatly appreciate it. We are supposed to go to Maine the last weekend in September - our first trip since Dad was diagnosed a year ago and we all need to get away. Hopefully this is just something easily remedied.
