we found a sale at a local toy store in denver and Zayd was so happy to get a police outfit - He later told us that b/c there was no gun that he was not a police but a “night guard”  he slept with his outfit on last night and said he wasn’t going to sleep and stay up all night to protect us from the “mean guys” -  He eventually fell asleep..

In case you were wondering what is actually wrong with my back - Here is a good image to see  –   The drawing on the left is normal and what it should look like -

The yellow circle is the spinal cord -  The image on the right is the disk bulging out and pressing in on the nerves and spinal cord - (What my disk is doing)

Joel Vestal @ 4:20 pm + Prayer  
Thank you for your emails, prayers, advice and concern over my back issue –
I returned from the doctor today and I have a herniated disk (meaning my vertebrae [C6] is bulging out - It is not merely pressing our touching my spinal cord but is “severely compressing” my spinal cord - using the doctor’s words -   He wants to do surgery to take out the disk, replace it with bone and a metal plate through the front of my neck -  He says if I had even the slightest head injury, whip lash that it could have severe damage (paralysis)
Has anyone had this surgery?  Would love to talk to someone who has -  Please continue to pray for wisdom as we make decisions - i am in still in a great deal of pain.
