Bad Things

Things turned bad on Sunday night. I woke up with terrible cramps. The cramps were generated by my messed up nervous system. I got up to try to walk them off. When I got downstairs from the second floor I suddenly lost all feeling from my waist down. I fell and could only use my upper body. I laid I my own excrement for some time before I was able to wake Linda. She cleaned me up, got a blanket and pillow and told me to sleep. She wanted to call 911 but I refused.
The next morning most of the feelings can back to the lower areas. I was able to get to my wheelchair.
Today I am walking. My steps are slow and I have tendency to loose my balance but I am walking.
Dr. Brown, my primary care doctor, and Dr. Morrison, my neurologist, have arrange for me to see a Neurosurgeon today hopefully he will find a way to help.

How are you feeling today? Will you still be going to VA on the 17th for surgery?... And, I love the essay on joe, put a link to it from his page to save it for posterity.

Love you
