_**Saw my surgeon today after spending all weekend in the local ER with unbelievable pain. So down to hospital where my MVD was done to their emerg my daughter and I headed Mon. morning(3hrs away). they didn't do much but we contacted my surgeon while we were there. He said he would see us first thing this morning. So it was a girl's nite in a hotel. Saw him this morning and surgery booked for Friday. We are doing the balloon procedure. My surgeon says because I have had a MVD even though it failed there is a good chance this will work. A failed MVD says compression was not my issue, it is the actual nerve. I could wake up Friday morning pain free...OMG I get choked up everytime I think about it. So excited but scared it won't happen at the same time. I need all the vibes I can get ok??**_

_ **Take care of you,** _

I read a picture on FB that says "You're little baby girl can grow up to be your best friend" I love that saying, my 22 yr old baby girl is definitely one of my best friends. Anytime I have to see a doctor or go to the hospital she is right there by my side. Love her with everything there is.

I have two daughters, 34 and 38. They are the best thing in my life. I fell like we are all the same age now!  
So good to hear your daughter is there for you. Mine are too. Aren’t we blessed.
