Walking Without a Walker
Back in the fall, my back pain became so severe that I could hardly do anything. I went to see a medical doctor here in Miami, Oklahoma, who then sent me to Tulsa to see a specialist. An MRI was ordered, and I was told that I needed back surgery.
After some time, I agreed and was scheduled for surgery in Tulsa. When the day came, they had me fully prepped and were starting the IV to put me to sleep. Then, at the last moment, a nurse came in and told me the surgery could not be done because of my heart condition. I was told the surgery would likely kill me.
That was a huge shock.
By that point, I was using a walker and often a wheelchair. I could barely move without intense pain, and I was close to giving up on the idea of ever living a normal life again.
By the grace of God, and because of my loving daughter, everything changed. She found Marshall Spinal Care in Tulsa and encouraged me to go.
On March 9, I had my first visit, and it truly became a turning point in my life.
Today, I can walk without a walker. I can do just about anything I want to do. I am almost completely pain free, and I did not have to undergo surgery or end up with scars on my back.
One more thing I want to share. When you walk into Marshall Spinal Care, it doesn’t feel like a typical doctor’s office. You feel genuine love and care the moment you arrive, and that makes a difference you can’t easily put into words.
In closing, I want to thank everyone at Marshall Spinal Care and thank the Lord for what has been done for me. I am truly grateful.
I love you all,
Don K.
