I never thought my wife and I would find ourselves in this situation, and I pray you will never have to go through what we are going through now. One day she started experiencing back pain, which we all have had at one time or another. We all know the drill, take something for back pain, try to take it easy, and life goes on right. We so thought, the pain became persistent, then spread down her legs. Doctors said to go to physical therapy, then started giving her steroid shots. Months go by pain gets worse then finally, she is approved for an MRI. I remember the day we read the results, Rizi Mae, my loving, beautiful wife of 10 years, has a tumor attached to her spinal cord. The out-of-pocket cost alone for MRIs is astonishing, let alone the massive cost of her spinal surgery; I do not want to lose my wife; please help. God Bless every one of you.
