    it actually isn't that bad wearing it to school. I am 13 and i wore a brace when I was 11. It isn't that bad. You get used to the brace even if right now it feels like you won't. People never made fun of me if that is what you are worried about. Most people are just curious. If you have any questions just ask.

    Braced for 5 months
    Decided on surgery with 65 and 54 degree curves
    Pre-op curve measurements were in the 70's and 80's
    Surgery on April 26th 2005
    Fused from T3-L4
    Post-op curve is 15 degrees
