UPDATE.....SURG

RY IS ON THUR

DAY!!!

As many of you know that Sean has ongoing back pain.

This week has been one of the worst as far as pain goes.

He absolutely has to have surgery to be able to function in life. There is no way around it.

Here is the back story... in early April 2024, he had an MRI done on his back and shoulder.

With those MRI results, we were referred to Dr. Nicholas Andrade, Neurological Surgery for his back, and Dr. William Hobbs, Orthopedic Surgery for his shoulder.

At that time, we decided to go the non-surgical route for his back and just try the spinal injection.

Meanwhile, we had an appointment with Dr. Hobbs and opted for shoulder surgery on May 3, 2024. Sean was in an immobilizer for almost 2 weeks, and after about a month post-op, he had great results!

On June 26, 2024, he had the epidural injection in his back with some relief.

Fast forward to the end of July... we moved from Tyler to Georgetown. The best move ever! We have had more peace, but the relocation was tough on the bank account because of the surgery in May.

We have done fairly well in trying to get our business established in Georgetown.

On October 16, 2024, we saw pain management at Baylor Scott and White, and Sean received another similar epidural injection with not much relief.

He lives with pain every day.

We started a huge project at the beginning of December, and gradually his back pain got worse!

Monday, December 30, 2024, we had to leave the job and go to the ER. He is in excruciating pain and can barely move right now! It's horrible!

We have an appointment scheduled for January 28, 2025, for a CT bone scan and a follow-up with Dr. Andrade in Tyler.

After this scan and follow-up, we will be getting surgery scheduled in Tyler.

We refuse to use the ortho and pain management at Baylor Scott and White. It was a horrible experience, to say the least.

Our prayer is this... we have insurance, but we need a little extra help during this time of doctor appointments to drive back and forth to Tyler and then before and after surgery.

We have to finish the big project we started at the beginning of December, and we are looking for help to finish that since Sean is really unable to right now. We have about a week left on this job.

Please search your heart to see what you can do to help us! I know that the holidays just passed and everyone is stretched a little thin, but we are asking for mercy! What can you do to help?

We will provide all medical documentation to anyone who wants to see it! Also, a list of bills if you would like as well. Whatever you need to know in your heart to know that we would never ask for help unless we truly needed it!

I have to add that Sean has such an enormous heart and servants attitude for others! He has literally broken his back to make sure that we are taken care of and that ends are met. We just need a little xtra help right now! So that he can get back on his feet to continue to take care of us and others as God sees fit!!

May many, many blessings be upon you for helping us with this journey!!
