Dad's Surgery

[Alma Misionera]

My dad is having extensive back surgery tomorrow morning. He's had back pain for years and years now, and used to get shots to help control it. But it finally got to the point where the shots weren't helping anymore (or at least not for very long), so he opted to do the surgery. He's not too worried about the surgery itself, but he is not looking forward to the recuperation and having to wear a brace for a few months. My mom tends to worry, so she is more worried about it than all the rest of us.
