@lisag03 The only thing I don't understand is when you were in the hospital you just wanted to sleep, but your husband would not let you. You may have needed to sleep. I'm glad he is a rock for you for that's what you need.
I know I depend on my husband a lot too. He's 69 and still works full-time out of our house. I'm concerned how he is going to take care of me after my surgery. Luckily at Mayo they are having us go to a class to help him know how to help me as I recover from the Sping surgery. I'm counting down the days!
I also have much faith in God. He carries he through each day when I have the pain. So, I am so glad you have God in your life. My thoughts and prayers will be with you.

Thank you so much. Mayo Clinic really does think of everything. You will be in amazing hands there. I hope your surgery is a success and brings you relief. My husband had a four level cervical fusion in 2013, so I know recovery is challenging. Hopefully your husband can find a good balance.
I think the way I worded things came out incorrectly. My wanting to sleep all the time was definitely depression and not a need for sleep. He is my biggest advocate!
