September 29, 200817 yr Once again I find myself asking you, my friends, for your prayers. Wednesday October 1st I will be having spinal surgery to remove 2 blown lumbar disc. One of which has broken off and is pressing on the sciatic nerve root. After a month is allowed for this to heal I will have another surgery to remove the back hlaves of the vertebra from C-2 to C-7 to try and relieve pressure that has developed on my spinal chord due to arthritis and other conditions. Please remember me and my family during this time. I will make sure to keep you all updated through this thread. Thank You, Alan Brazzel
September 29, 200817 yr Alan, We will keep you and your family in our prayers and wish you a speedy recovery... Jerry
September 29, 200817 yr Alan, you're on our Church Prayer chain here. Praying for the healing only God can provide and strength for you and the family. God Bless you.
September 29, 200817 yr Yes Alan, I am in the prayer club for good now and you are supported from here. Good luck, you are not alone. Dan:)
September 29, 200817 yr Alan, Sorry to hear about your neck and lower back. They wanted to blow the back of my neck out too but I couldn't go for it yet and they keep putting off doing something about my lower. The day may come. I will add you to the growing list of them that are in need of prayer. Praying for a speedy recovery.
October 2, 200817 yr Author UPDATE: I'm home. Doctor said surgery went well yesterday and released me to come home today. I'll be in a back brace for a while and can't work in the forge for at least a month. I'm going to take it easy and give myself time to heal. Thank you all for the prayers and concerned emails. Glenn, thank you for providing us with this venue to seek solace and comfort. God Bless You All !!!!
October 2, 200817 yr Alan, your welcome. Now would be the time to do some study on blacksmithing, take notes and make drawings of the projects you want to make when you get back to the forge. (grin). Take care for yourself and don't rush things.
October 3, 200817 yr Alan, I'm glad you're home. I can tell you from experience IFI wil keep you from being bored. Take your time. Travis
