Dear friends, thank you all for your prayers, help and support. It’s very much appreciated.
I met with my doctor and have been referred to Mountain View Rehab in Grass Valley for treatment.
Essentially I have a narrowing of the spinal nerve cord in the lumbar region which has been developing for a while, finally rearing its head a couple months ago.
This is not something like a broken bone or sore throat which will heal. While is it restricting my activities such as hiking and cycling and standing, It is something I will learn to manage with the help of medication, exercise, and your prayers.
I am doing everything we can think of to mitigate the symptoms. Hopefully, I can gradually return to more regular activities, however I doubt I’ll be hiking to the bottom of the Grand Canyon again. Hmm……ya never know.
