It’s been a tough week, especially for Nicole. She underwent spine decompression surgery Wednesday. Surgery went well, but unfortunately she was experiencing very low blood pressure after her procedure. It took 4 days to get it under control where she safely could be released from the hospital to go home. Needless to say, New York Presbyterian Hospital was great. The care they gave her was first rate. Now she is on her way to recovery. It’ll be weeks before she can return to pre-surgical level of activity.

So happy she is home!
