Apparently, I have a problem. I have had back pains off and on for the last year. I have endured a few cortisone shots now and then, which have worked quite well. Today I returned to the DR with a reoccurring problem, and I was asked to go for another MRI, this time for a different region. I felt like I was in there forever, when I thought it was almost done I was asked to lay extremely still while they moved the sled "PLEASE DO NOT MOVE", they took me out and informed me that I needed to have an IV of contrast added. When it was all said and done I spent close to two hours in that freaking machine to come out and have the specialist tell to please wait on my MRI results< the DR has asked that you bring the results right back to him immediately.
It turns out that I have to go to John Hopkins in MD to have some sort of growth in my spinal column removed. Want to talk about being scared? Let?s try this being thrown on top of a divorce and the chance to lose custody of my SON, My hero, my life. And the chance that I can?t play Golf anymore on to no more long sessions in the pool hall and the fact that I can become paralyzed. Now I feel stressed, and in need of your prayers please.

I don?t have anyone except a 3 year old to turn to for comfort.

Dang this Sucks!!
 
Modern day medicine is amazing. You are going to the experts.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your son.

Not To Worry

My prayers are with you. I will come to visit you in Baltimore. Let me know when you are going in. I am your friend and I will have more people praying for your recovery than Carter has liver pills. Please PM me your name so I can call the Unity prayer line and get them started. Thousands of prayers can really change things. Remember, you have unknown friends who really care about you.

I am sorry to hear of your troubles, am praying for you and want to encourage you that you also have access to THE Comforter. Christ has promised to never leave us or forsake us and in spite of all we go through He hears our prayers. I pray that the doctors will have supernatural wisdom and that you will have peace that surpasses all understanding. I know its possible because His strength got me through my 13 year old daughter's open heart surgery two years ago. Lean on God's strength and lend yours to your son.

God Bless,
Steve
 
You got my prayer support. Having a strong faith in trying times can be challenging, but it can work miracles. Stay strong.
 
Help is in the air

Your are in god's hands and you are in the best hospital. My fathers surgeon was from Hopkins. I remember meeting the surgeon and his hands shone white, just as I would expect gods hands too be. Do every thing they say to the tee. I will pray for you a couple of times. In the news we had two duck hunters flip a boat hunting they survived for there childen both single fathers. use you son as strength because you are his support.And will continue to be his support. God sayes ask and you shall recieve. God bless you both now and always. mark
 
Yes I agree, Johns Hopkins is an acclaimed medical institution. I come from a family of doctors. Do not be afraid to ask questions and get second and third opinions. The doctors are great, but only you can tell what you are feeling inside your body.

Focus the power of your own mind on helping yourself heal. You can be your best facilitator of healing. Even your own doctors will tell you that. Miracles happen every day in medicine. Trust your doctors and yourself!
 
My prayers to!! I've found that God can bring good from the worst of situations. Have faith and never lose hope. Don

It's going to work out for you. Once they remove it you will feel like a new man.

You have us!

Yes, it's bad news but it can all turn around very quickly. A few months from now, you may just find yourself perfectly healthy with your perfect mate for life. Just give this all a chance to play out, and remember, it often turns out for the better. I had a divorce when my first daughter was 3, and I've since been happliy married for 18 years - and am very close to both my daughters.

Good luck!
