Our daughter has Scoliosis and will be having surgery very soon to correct her 43 degree curve in her thoracic portion of her spine. I have it as well. However, I didn't learn of my curve until age 18. Although one never desires to have their child go through surgery. We're thankful that medical technology has improved in this area and she has the opportunity to have a healthier spine.
If you have a child who needs to have their spines evaluated, we strongly encourage you to do so. Secondly, here is a great link for you to bookmark to educate yourself or to give to someone who may have to have surgery.
Please click here for the SpineKids website.
Meanwhile, we covet your prayers for this new journey in our family's life. Knowing our Heavenly Father is fully aware of every detail and will meet all our needs in Christ Jesus. Please note, God doesn't intend for His children to bear their burdens alone. We will need all our brothers and sisters in Christ each step of this journey.
Our goal is to keep family and friends updated via Facebook, a Caring Bridge page, and email.
