The next year of my life consists of three (very scary) major surgeries. Due to degenerative arthritis, spinal stenosis, herniated discs, scoliosis, and spondylolisthesis, I am struggling to walk and the pain has become unmanageable. I am having a lumbar fusion (L3/L4 & L4/L5) with rods, screws, and spacers on April 17. My right knee replacement is scheduled for September 9, and the left knee replacement will be a few months later. I am told that after my back surgery, I will not be allowed to bend, twist, or sit at a 90 degree angle for approximately three months. Who knows when I will be able to perform music at the assisted living home or make it upstairs to my studio to stream or record music again. Singing and playing music is a huge stress reliever for me, but everything seems to be up in the air at this time. Any help with meals will really reduce our stress. I am requesting one meal a day for the first two weeks post-op. I will reassess the situation once I am home recovering. Anyway, thanks so much for listening to my woes and for helping out if you can. Kari and I appreciate your support very much.
