I am off tomorrow too - but I have got to get my papers finished - I feel like I have been such a bump on the couch for the past 4 days, lol

Hey Fam. How is everyone doing this wet and rainy day? I got back home from NY this morning. Decided to leave last night instead of this morning because I did not want a repeat of the nightmare travel experience I had on Friday when I drove up. Luckily I left when I did because I hear that the traffic is a nightmare and addded to that it is rainy and cold and the roads are slick.

Honey, I am sorry to hear about your tradegy. Everyone has expressed my feelings and I hope that this too shall pass.

Jawi, your neck xray looks amazing. Did you have a spinal fusion with harware? Have you had physical therapy scheduled? I hope you do cause I don't want you experiencing a stiff neck that will limit your neck movements. Does your neck feel stiff at all?

1Luv, I hope your pregnancy progresses without any issues.

Portland--girl guh home a yuh yaad. The traffic is terrible. IF you can postpone the trip until tomorrow, go ahead and do it.

If I miss anyone else, sorry but I hope you all had a wonderful thanksgiving.

About the weightloss, what diet plan are we going to follow and are we going to start a weightloss thread? We can all have a weightloss ticker like I see KK have on her siggy line. I need to loose 50 lbs because since Mike came I gained so much weight because he is always cooking.

Much love always.

Thanks. I do not have physical therapy scheduled, but the doctor wants to start me with an external bone growth stimulator. My neck is very stiff...he gave me a muscle relaxer because I am having spasms down my back. I take the brace off periodically and rotate my neck slowly. Can you recommend a good sleep pillow/cushion?

I do not have a recommendation for a pillow but I can ask one of the PT people at my job. You need to have PT because whenever you have any injury/surgery to any bone/joint the bone/joint automatically starts fusing itself and it will limit movement to the affected area. It is good that you are doing some yourself but you need to talk to him about PT. You have to be proactive because some of these docs are only interested in the surgery but not the aftermath. When I had elbow surgery after it was broken, I had on an open cast and would take my arm out and so some small exercise to the joint and that is why right now I have full range of motion to that extremity. Please have him schedule you for PT ASAP or else you will not be able to fully rotate your neck and that could impete your ability to drive because your neck is so fused you won't be able to utilize your pheriperal vision when driving.

Jawi, I have tried all types of pillows, and the best that I found was to take a towel roll it and stick it in the pillow case - it kept my neck in alignment and stopped the pain -

I second the PT recommendation, it makes all the difference - I hurt my neck badly 4 times, I learned the hard way to keep up with my PT. A PT should teach you McKenzie exercises, which you can do at home and they will help significantly. Also, Arnica gel is a great natural pain reliever.

Please tell me how to put on a pregnancy timeline. I went to the website and when I am supposed to cut, copy and paste it does not work HELP!

Sorry Honey for you material loss; but mostly for the intrusion of your personal space and peace of mind. Having a home security system helped me sleep better at night when I lived in a secluded area.

Thank you both for the recommendations. I asked the doctor about PT while I was in the hospital because it seemed all the hospital staff was stating that I would have someone come out to my house to help with PT exercises. But, he told me that I would not need it. I will ask again on Wednesday.
