Tethered cord release... anyone ride after eventually?

I am scheduled for TC release in Feb. my horses have been with a friend for a few years now bc of my decline and disability. I have this far fetched dream though of being ale to being my heart horse home again some day. She drives so I have that but I prefer to ride.

Has anyone been allowed to ride after TC release? I realize it is to a common procedure but I’m desperate for some hope. :). I can’t NOt have the surgery so avoiding it any longer isn’t an option either.

Thanks in advance
