Heal well and good vibes sent your way! Keep us updated, man!

The people I know with Katanas love them.

Well received, thank you, Vape.

Not good - I am very sorry to hear this, and hope your heal up way beyond your (or the doctor's) expectations.

Thank you Tom.

Healing up nicely. Still tender. Some slight dizziness when I move my head certain ways, but hey, I did take quite a knock to the head. Should be some dizziness. Big Guy watching out for me.

You've still got some greatness to bestow upon the world before you go.

You too.
We need you bro.
Never stop fighting.
Never stop playing.

I read this from a hospital bed where it could be some time before I leave, and the very possibility I may never play, or walk for that matter, again.

What the heck???? If you don't mind, please let us know what is up, and how you're doing.

I Am Praying For You And Anybody Else Needing A Healing Touch Of Any Kind. Never Give Up As Your Miracle Is Coming!

Thank you for the concern and kind wishes. Turns out some pretty severe spinal compression between the shoulder blades. So tight contrast couldn't even flow through it. Was told this morning a discectomy Thursday looks to be the option. If it works, good chance I can mostly get back to my old self......wife is pissed

Four days post-op and making progress. Woke up in recovery with little strength or feeling in my hands, which were fine prior, but has come back a ton comparatively speaking, everything feels like sandpaper tho, Iegs are total rubber.

'Think I'll able to play guitar at some point doc?'

'Should be able to...'

'Sweet, because I sure couldn't before...'

Rehab stint next on the horizon, maybe for a few weeks. Time, just time.

Bodia told me this is a stand-up community when I joined a few years ago. He was totally on-point. Your stories, shared art, humor, musical diversity, etc., give me a small place to tool around in. Especially on the rather deep, dark nights I'm sometimes not so sure I'd crawl out of.

Again, I appreciate all of the thoughts, prayers, and warm sincerity. I only hope I may return the favor over time and touch someone in need.

(Not that way Alan, still feels like sandpaper).

Great news! Take your time and with recovery and rehab.

When you're mobile again, just make sure not to be in front of me on the steps. I still get that mean streak urge!

That's great news. PT & rehab can be a PITA, but stick with it. It will help.

Sending you positive vibes for your recovery and guitar playing

Seriously though, be safe and wishing you all the best.

First, I’m glad you came through the surgery well, and wish you a speedy recovery!

Let me know when you’re well enough to laugh, so I can start being funny again.

 

[Sybo]

Great news! After my discectomy,I could tell immediately, even though the pain was a *****. Slow and easy is the deal. You Sir are in our thoughts and prayers. Hopefully it’s all behind ya now…

 

[Steve's addiction]

Glad you are doing better. Praying for great rehab results and that it goes quickly for you!!

Hit it....!

I’m not sure how I missed this earlier. I’m glad you are on the mend. Prayers that it all comes back. To your previous jest - I hope you can play when this is all done. I can’t play either, and I hope to take a different route to rectify that. Take care, heal and recover well!

Appreciate it...we'll double-team it!
