the Mathematician cheers up

Last week the Mathematician's symptoms suddenly improved to a surprising degree. Almost pain free, and able to take reasonable short hikes. So yesterday the neurosurgeon postponed the surgery for two months.

Because he's getting better, and because he's almost certain to relapse. Eventually he'll need the surgery, but not just now.

So, good. For the moment.

Yippee! I must say, though, I hope he doesn't overdo. My husband is felt 'way better' so went back to a light-duty version of his regular life and regressed to the point of having to take the dreaded prescription medication again. He's going in for his discectomy (way less invasive than the fusion they were originally planning) on Monday.
