Tom went to Danville on October 31st. The doctor wanted to keep him there and do back sugery that day. Of course Tom said no. He made another appointment for November 13th so that the doctor can talk to both of us about the sugery. He wants to do the sugery on the 14th. The sugery is on the thoracic spine. The doctor said that if the sugery isn't done Tom could be getting up from the couch and one of the dics that are against the spine could go through and cut the spinal cord. Tom thinks he is going to wait until after the Holidays to have the sugery done. I will let everyone know what happens on the 13th.
