A success!

Earl has had his surgery.  It was a success, praise God! What they did was go in where the fusion from 30 years ago was, cleaned it out to make the hole that the nerve goes through bigger.  The plan was that this would relieve the pressure on the nerve. The pressure caused pain and numbness in his legs.  It worked!  He said that the pain in his legs is completely gone and he just has some pain at the surgery site. He is up walking around and will be released from the hospital tomorrow.  I can't wait.
