She attempted to conceal it from her fans, from her family and in particular, from her significant other and Thompson Square bandmate Keifer Thompson.

Be that as it may, this previous August, after a to some degree tiresome show in Alabama, the blue grass music singer basically couldn’t do it any longer.
“[Her back pain] had been deteriorating after each show,” makes sense of Keifer, 49, in a new meeting with Individuals.
“Shawna would be in torment before we would go in front of an audience, however at that point the adrenaline would kick in.
She would bounce or something in front of an audience, and it would simply cause me to flinch since I realized she would pay for it later.” For sure, back torment has been something Shawna has lived with now and again all through a decent part of her life, going as far as possible back to 1999 when she harmed her back in a rollerblading mishap.
“It was the most humiliating thing I thoroughly consider I’ve likely at any point been on the grounds that we were recently hitched when it worked out,” Shawna, 44, recollects.
“I was unable to try and get up. I could do nothing for myself. And out of nowhere, Keifer was dealing with me.” Then in 2016, around a similar time the Grammy-designated couple were all the while luxuriating in the progress of No. 1 hits such “Are You Going to Kiss Me or Not” and “On the off chance that I Didn’t Have You,” Shawna’s back aggravation returned.
She was determined at an opportunity to have degenerative circle infection and a herniated plate which expected a medical procedure to fix.
“I went to see a specialist and they did a discectomy on me, and I thought everything was perfect,” says Shawna. “I had no aggravation for quite a long time.”
That is, until Mother’s Day of this current year, when Shawna appeared to reaggravate her back issues again while on a fishing trip with her better half and their 6-year-old child Cooper.
And keeping in mind that Shawna says she trusted some old fashioned rest would permit her back the important opportunity to mend, she began understanding that this was definitely surprisingly significant. “I recollect that I wheezed truly hard back, in May,” recalls. “What’s more, with a herniated circle, once in a while that is everything necessary in some cases.
I sniffled and in a real sense pretty much tumbled to my knees. It seemed like someone had fired me with a shotgun or something like that.”
In August, the couple ended up counseling a few specialists with expectations of deciding whether Shawna required a medical procedure once more.
Simultaneously, the down home music couple had to drop a large number of event dates, similarly as they were praising the fruitful arrival of their ongoing single “Country in My Spirit,” which filled in as their most memorable single delivery since 2019’s “You Shoulda Been There.” “I struggled with [the show cancellations],” a close to home Shawna concedes.
“We had lots of public broadcasts that we should do, and I could likely do them on the off chance that I didn’t need to travel. The issue was with that.”
“You know, we had two years of not playing because of Coronavirus,” adds Keifer. “Then, at that point, we began getting back on the pony — having another arrangement and another single — and afterward we needed to stop working once more. Yet, we immovably accept everything occurs on purpose.”
For sure, it did. “We talked with three unique specialists,” makes sense of Keifer. “The final remaining one, who is a nervous system specialist at Vanderbilt [University Clinical Center], proposed that we attempt a progression of non-intrusive treatment arrangements to fix the issue.
He was sure that assuming Shawna had another medical procedure, she would eventually must have three or four additional medical procedures — one of which could be spinal combination.”
“They were saying that they didn’t think I expected to get cut on once more,” adds Shawna, alluding to the back a medical procedure she went through back in 2017.
“They figured four to about a month and a half of exercise based recuperation would fix the issue.” After much thought, the couple went with the more safe methodology, which included non-intrusive treatment 2-3 days every week, alongside chiropractic care with expectations of staying away from a medical procedure out and out. Also, so far, it has worked.
Yet again keifer says Shawna is “showing improvement consistently,” permitting her to do ordinary errands like getting dressed all alone and putting her own shoes on — assignments that she once underestimated. “As of now, everything unquestionably revolves around fortifying my center,” says Shawna. “That is the biggest thing when you generally dislike your lower back.”
Fortunately, Keifer and their child Cooper are giving a valiant effort to help Shauna as she recovers. “Keifer has been a champion,” expresses Shawna with a giggle.

“I can’t express an adequate number of about his nursing skill. Furthermore, Cooper comes in each prior day he goes to class. He’ll lay in bed and chill with me.
Simply hearing him say, ‘Mother, I wish your back was better. I put you on the request list at school.’ That multitude of easily overlooked details mean to such an extent.”
Also, presently, Thompson Square is preparing for their re-visitation of the street.
“We’ll fire back up in October, and we feel like the remainder of 2023 will be the same old thing,” expresses Keifer of the new visit plan which will start off October 20 in Indianapolis.
“Clearly, Shawna will be extremely cautious proceeding, however what’s to come is brilliant.”
