Little People, Big World patriarch Matt Roloff recently had yet another surgery, this time on his neck, and the 54-year-old reality star documented his 16-day hospital stay for friends and fans on Facebook.
Matt kicked things off with the photo above on June 13. “Today’s my big day,” he wrote in the caption. “Finally getting my neck fixed. Heading under the knife momentarily. Love love to all of you!”
And here are the rest of his updates from oldest to newest, with photos first then the captions underneath. (I’ve also included an interaction Matt had with a commenter who asked how many surgeries he has had as well a couple stories Matt shared.)
