Oh Dave's Aching Back!
So, my husband is on drugs...the kind of drugs that make him fall asleep mid-sentence, the kind he MAY NOT operate machinery with, or drive with or even talk on his cell phone with...but it is a good thing.
Dave had back surgery yesterday. The actual procedure only took a little over an hour and was performed by a very small neurosurgeon with big head little man syndrome (seriously the guy has the personality of a doorknob!), but it was a complete success and he is home.
Already his is walking straighter, his mood is much lighter, and I can see the old David slowly coming back. Let's just hope he learns a bit of a lesson and treats his growing older everyday body with a bit more respect!
I am so glad that he was able to get this surgery, it really has been hard to watch him be in so much pain. He is a hands on type of guy, especially with his kids so it has been different around here for the last several weeks, but it will be better soon. I just hope he can survive me, his non nurse maid kind of wife ( I really hate to take care of sick people, but I am being nice, I promise!)and Maya Papaya who loves to take care of her daddy!
By the way, it states on his post surgery instructions that "tea" parties with your two year old are a definete must to get better!

Ouch! Hope he is feeling better soon. I have heard it is law that tea parties are required for your health ;)
Hey Bro! hope you get better soon, it was a shame we couldn't play ball last time you were out here. I knew you must had been in GREAT pain, other wise I know you would have brought your shoes. Anyway get better soon.

Hope the recovery is quick! The tea parties should definately help!
Oooooh, this pic is so cute. I can see this one in a Christmas letter describing this part of your family's happenings in 2008. Hope that the tea (and all of the drugs) are helping him feel a little more comfortable.
Poor, POOR Davey.... but haey atleast he can play tea time with Maya! That is sooooooo cute! Love it! Love You!
Hope the recovering is going well. Sounds like he's in good hands! He's been in our prayers.
I was so surprised to see Dave at youth conference! I am so glad everything went well and that he is recovering well! How sweet Maya is taking care of her daddy!
OH my! poor fullmer! give him a squeeze from his favorite youngest sis-in-law! olives!
Hey, we are a little late--I hope you are feeling much better! With little Miss Maya at your side, all will be well!
