It is October 2nd and 12:51 in the morning.  We just came home from the hospital.  The pain from my belt down to my feet was so severe tonight, I couldn't walk.  Tomorrow we begin making an appointment for surgery.  The MRI tonight showed why my left foot wasn't working and flopping around like a lame goose.  It is the same disk out of place I had a year ago or more but much more severe right now and it fortunately is repairable.  I have never been in so much pain as I was tonight and my legs still ache even tonight but I have some medications to take to help manage the pain.  I'm going to need the surgery as soon as possible to alleviate the pain and to regain strength in my left foot and ankle so your prayers will be appreciated.  The disk is in the lower back between vertebras l4 and l5, at least I think that's right.  Near there anyhow.
