Gee sounds fun. Maybe we can get some of our west coast guys to fly you in an In-And-Out burger.... mmmm
Glad you are doing better.
I was home the day after surgery, so only one night in the hospital. Pain was so bad the first night home I was literally crying out loud. Here I was, an otherwise healthy 37-year-old Air Force squadron commander, and my wife was holding my head as I cried like a baby. My whole back had spasmed and wouldn't unclench; I had allowed myself to get behind on the meds. I have to say that it was the most painful thing I've ever felt. I felt like the screws were going to burst out through my skin.
In contrast, today I got my staples taken out, was able to visit the squadron for 30 minutes, and had lunch at Five Guys Burgers. I even did some train work at my workbench today.
What an amazing world we live in that in one week I'm so much better after spinal fusion surgery!
