IDOLMANIA........MY 150th POST


I have to admit I am an Idol fan and have been for the last five years. I know "J" does not think too much of American Idol. Last night I was ecstatic because an Indian kid made it to the top 24.I do hope he makes it to the top ten. I think American Idol even with all the hype that surrounds it, does give opportunities for everyone to show their talent. I know that some really talented people do not make it , but then thats life.

On another note..I went for my three month check up yesterday, it was a nice long ride to Beverly Hills. There was a lot of traffic returning because it was peak hour but it was Ok. I have to say that I spent some quality time with "J" on Valentine's Day. we talked all the way there and back. I am really happy that the doctor said that my back is healing well.The CT scans looked good.The doctor showed me pictures of my back with the artifical Disc and on the second level you can see the spinal cage and a plate with two long screws. So now I start Physical Therapy for eight weeks. After which I hope to be doing a lot more.My first stop may be to a mall, which I have not seen for a couple of years. Thank you all for your prayers and support. I think I have made it after all.

I think this idol guy would make it to top 5. If not, it would be sad coz he looks better than most of them.

Happy 150'th post starry...

I read your blog and wanted a bit of information

Actually my mom suffers from two slipped discs in her upper spinal cord. She suffers from a lot of pain because of this. What was your surgery like? HOw many days did you spend in the hospital? How many days did you take for complete recovery.

I would really be grateful if you could send me the information to my email address higanesh2003@gmail.com.

Thanks.
