We just had our 6 month post op appointment this past week and I'm happy to report that all restrictions have been lifted. Yes to everything, other than jumping on a trampoline - our surgeon is not a fan of them at all even for people who don't have scoliosis. I asked about rollercoasters, waterslides, and he said yes to all of that as well.
Her first day back in Phys Ed at school yesterday and she played soccer. She said that it was a lot of fun but whenever someone ran towards her to get the ball, she braced herself to get hit and was afraid. I think that is a normal reaction and it will probably take a while before she gets aggressive in sports again. She is really looking forward to volleyball camp this summer and her goal is to make the grade 8 team in September. I hope she'll be ok with that - of course I worry....
I am attaching her before & after x-rays - hopefully it works...
