My friend Derek had emergency surgery on Saturday. His back was bothering him again, for no apparent reason. The doctor gave him more meds. It was still bad the next day, so he went back. They did an MRI and discovered a tumor on his spine. They took him directly into surgery.
He's getting feeling back in his legs today. I haven't heard what the tumor was, yet. I hope he gets out of ICU by Thursday, so I can visit him before the weekend (since I'll be gone).
