Yes the cell phones do work!!! I do hope Jenny is getting better. Parents just being there is a comfort I am sure for Jenny. When Amanda had back surgery, she was in and out of bed for 3 weeks. WE MADE IT!!! We used a lot of trash bags when it came to showers. I wish I had know about the no wash shampoo. Some areas could not get wet, and that is when the trash bags came it handy. My firsts suggestion is don’t let the pain get ahead before the pills have a chance to work. Pain pills can take a while. Believe it or not, you all will laugh about things later on!!!!

My Mom used her nursing skills to help me recover, but her patience and love were what really got my through those days after surgery. Moms are great! Love you Mom! – Jen

I healed quicker than expected, but it wasn’t the handicap-friendly products that got me through. It was my mother, who never left my side, no matter how annoyed I became with her, she put up with me. I’m convinced that was the reason I bounced back as soon as I did.
