Thank each of you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers and support. Not just now, but for nearly 30 years of my life as a very public leader. I'm deeply grateful.
My thoughts are with you and your family during the ramp-up to your surgery (and both during and the recovery phases). May it go smoother than you've been expecting!
May the Almighty bless you and guide the surgeons, and medical team during your surgery and may your healing journey be swift. God bless you and your family as you go through this. ♥️🙏♥️
Thank you dear sister. No. I was beaten very badly all the way back in 1995, then had a brutal car accident in 2002. This will be my 5th spinal surgery. They have to remove titanium discs they installed early last year because my spine had a reaction to them and it is destroying the bone of my spine. They will have to remove those, try to clean it up, fuse those two levels and the two levels below it.
Well, it certainly sounds "big", all that they are going to do to you....thank you so much for explaining. So sorry for all the pain you are enduring, and the more that you will have. I'll hold you close.
Well, you are facing a major hurdle. I’ve had 4 spinal fusions, some vertebral spacers have been cadaver bone, some metal, but definitely the plates and screws have been titanium. So I have major empathy for your apprehension. However, the only option is to go forward and hopefully this will be a positive result and decrease your significant pain levels. I send my heartfelt thoughts and prayers as you undergo this corrective surgery. I will miss your column in the the meantime 💔❤️🩹💝
I’m curious what your diagnosis is or what your surgery is I’ve had spinal surgery before I actually was on my spinal cord. It was tethered and they had to tether it and it was I mean looking back. I don’t really remember it as a terrible terrible time but I know in the moment it was and it was scary. I am chronically ill obviously and disabled myself so I’m not able to really financially help anyone I just actually spent a friend with DS some money to get some food this week, but I do wish you all the best. I know it’s stuff just I hope you trust surgeon that you have placed your body in his aunt his or her hands and that everything goes as expected or better.
Hi. Good to hear from you. Sending you love and prayers. This will be my 5th spinal surgery. They will have to remove two titanium discs from my neck. They will have to fuse those areas. And likely fuse two more levels beneath it.
So sorry for what you are going through, brother. May Allah make it easy for you and your family. May the surgery be a success and may you have a smooth recovery. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. 🤲
oh Shaun Dear brother sending Love and All positive wishes and thoughts for Ease in this time, and so so so much appreciation to You for All you do for humanity
As salaamu alaikum, duas for your complete healing and full recovery Aameen.
I really hope you're able to add FOL to your daily healthcare regimen ASAP. Research lignans and their impact on our OVERALL health. It's more than just another supplement. It’s a functional food extract, not oil. It can be used orally, sublingually and topically.
And then there are the stories and testimonials that have emerged over the years. They range from people using it as part of their everyday wellness and maintenance, to people navigating much more significant health challenges, including individuals who had once been told, “There is nothing else.” Those are personal experiences, not promises or medical claims, but the breadth of those stories certainly makes FOL something worth your attention.
Believe and you shall receive. Meanwhile may all our prayers give you wings ❣️ we are with you. InshaAllah you will not only recover well, you’ll intimidate through your heartfelt journalism, and excel through your dedication. And don’t worry. God is with you, as are those that seek the truth. Godspeed Shaun 🤲🏼🤲🏼🤲🏼
You and your family will be in my prayers. I have faith in those you trust to provide your medical care. You will get through this and heal. That’s the priority. I look forward to what you have to tell us through this journey. Please take care. Sending love and hugs. ❤️

Shaun, you are not saying, but is it the big scoliosis surgery - is that what you have ?
I myself was faced with its possibility over 10 years ago, and chose an elastic brace
instead. The "big surgery" would have taken me a year to recover from.
Whatever yours is, you are totally in my heart and prayers. So sorry I don't have money.
Lots of love,
