Dion update 03rd Nov

Hi everyone,

We hope that you are well and had a good weekend. Dion, myself and our girls are all well and had a good weekend with family and friends.

Just a quick update - Dion has finally got his calipers for his legs which seem to be doing the trick and he is able to stand for longer periods etc and they are really a great assistance to him and support for him.

Also, just to let you all know that Dion unfortunately has to go for yet another back operation. There are two discs in his lumber area that have slipped slightly and are pushing against his nerve which is causing him much pain and discomfort. All of these due to one person driving recklessly with another person's life in his hands !!!
Anyway, Dion will be going into hospital on Thursday 13th November for the operation and will be in hospital for 2 - 3 days. After this he will be allowed to resume his gym and get up and going again. The sooner he does this the better. There are a few healing processes with an operation like this that Dion of course cannot stick to 100 % - like not being allowed to sit for 6 weeks etc. Of course Dion has no choice but to sit so .... but with the help of his new "legs" (the calipers) he will be able to stand for certain periods etc.

Please could you all pray that the operation is a success and that Dion finally gets rid of some of the pain that he has been dealing with for a few months now. I will write again to let you all know how it goes and what the outcome is.

Thank you again for all of the love and support and I pray that people continue being so generous and helpful.

Have a good week and lots of love to you all.
Bron, Dion, Aimee and Kayla
