Zuben Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Friends, I may sound short and ugly in my replies. I will take my time before posting them hoping to keep my despair to myself. This afternoon I was confined to a wheelchair. I can't say I didn't see it coming as I have been pushing myself harder that my doctors wanted me to. MRI's with contrast (dye injections to show leaks and hairline fractures) have been scheduled for Thurs. Surgery has been pushed up. I will not know the date until after the Mir's and seeing my Neurosurgeon. I have lost about 80% of the feeling in my right leg and fell 5 or 6 times this past weekend. Hence a trip to the Docs this morning. Judgment? Wheel chair. No pressure on the back and no walking. Period. I have my SAG and a small Marshall practice amp, my computer and a bunch of CDs, blank and instructional on some styles I always wanted to try. I am not in a good mood as I was headed to Jacksonville this weekend to do some over dubs from my San Diego sessions and then to the NE to hang with LF. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! To my phone buds, give me some time. I am not in the mood and will let you know when I am. I have a great support system here Peace http://www.spotcheckbilly.com http://www.littlefeat.net http://www.bonnieraitt.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdrs Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 First...you have NOTHING to apologize for. Any of us who have been paying attention know you've been struggling with this back situation. It does suck, no doubt about it!! It's hard to get around that. Limitations of the flesh are the great equalizer! You have a great medical team, from what you've said. You have a great family and friends support system. And, for what it's worth, you have us!!! Hang in there. Find patience. Give your body a chance to heal. It's gonna take time. Lean on us at will.

Fumblyfingers Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Aaah Zubes that is so shitty man, I am so sorry to hear this. I hope through all the pain and worry you can try still have a positive outlook for the future which is essential for a better recovery. I am going to hold fast in my head that you are going to have a full recovery from your upcoming operation and that all the feeling and strength comes back in your legs, with no more back pain. Everytime I think of you I am going to project those positive thoughts into the universe and into the ether. I am also going to pray and ask the Almighty to shine down on you my friend and take all this crap away from you , heal you up, have those surgeons do fantastic work. So please pop in as you have been and chat when you can, update us when you can and you have my number, give me a jingle if you feel like it sometime.

Soulrock Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Zub, I'm sorry to hear that have to go thru this man, it sucks, plain and simple. At least you have the guitar to help you through. It may sound silly, but state of mind is important in recovery, and being able to play will hopefully help you deal with the situation a little bit better. I can't wait to see you throw down with Little Feat when you have put this ordeal behind you. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skipclone 1 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 ZubenAs you said you were pushing the boundaries. Now is a time to let yourself heal, I know it must be frustrating but let it happen and make the best of it, no need to apologize or get angry about it. You know the door`s always open here, if you just want to vent some plasma, drop in anytime. I hope the corrective measures work out well.
