Setback / no progress

Found out this week that I have a ruptured disc in my neck and that it will require surgery to repair. It effects my left arm with numbness in some places and pain in others, my muscles in that arm are losing strength. The idea of having surgery scares me but what scares me more is the thought of being unable to support my family financially and physically not being able to do the things they rely upon me for. Don't know what is going to happen to the farm this summer!Can't imagine me being out of commission is going to be very helpful.

Meadow lark nest

Found my first meadow lark nest today, almost stepped on the bird before it flew off the nest.
