If you’re a fan of reality shows and home design, chances are you’re familiar with Chip and Joanna Gaines from the hit show Fixer Upper. The couple, who are parents to five children, have captured the hearts of many viewers over the years.
They recently received their first Emmy nomination for their show, and they have also launched their own Magnolia Network. With streaming deals and shows available on various platforms, the Gaines have certainly made a name for themselves in the industry.
Unfortunately, Joanna Gaines recently had to undergo spine surgery to relieve her back pain. She took to Instagram to share photos of herself in a hospital bed wearing sunglasses and making a peace sign. Her fans immediately expressed concern for her well-being.
The surgery Joanna had is called a microdiscectomy, which is commonly used to treat a herniated disk in the spine. This condition can cause compression of spinal nerves and result in significant pain. This is not Joanna’s first experience with this type of surgery. She had her first procedure back in 2001 after suffering a back injury while in high school.
Despite the less-than-ideal timing of the surgery, Joanna remains positive and grateful for the opportunity to rest during the busy holiday season. She shared her appreciation for being able to slow down and embrace the beauty of the present moment. Joanna’s fans have been sending her well wishes for a speedy recovery.
In addition to her recent surgery, Joanna Gaines released her memoir titled “The Stories We Tell: Every Piece of Your Story Matters” in November. The book provides insights into her life and experiences, offering readers a deeper understanding of her journey.
We join Joanna Gaines’ fans in wishing her a fast recovery and hoping that she will be back to doing what she loves soon.
