Hi there MOM...hope I can just call ya Mom for short!
I am no expert on spines and I am especially ignorant regarding cervical spines.
I also feel very confused after reading your post and MRI report. My point being...if you don't understand what was told to you about your condition and all your options and what the consequenses(SP) of doing nothing verses something..YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED INFORMED CONSENT!
I would run for a second opinion and search out someone who has time to explain the risks, pros and cons of all your options!
Good luck! Be assertive! Be informed!
