Jennifer,
Thanks for the good wishes.
How did the doctor appointment go? Not so good. In June, there was some Kyphosis from C6-T3 which had increased slightly. Well, it has increased again. It is now at about 39*. The doctor said if we need to do surgery (which I think that's where we're headed) he would want to fuse two vertebrae above the Kyphosis. That would mean she would be fused from C4-L2! I am physically ill right now. I knew the Kyphosis had increased, because I could see it but I was hoping it was just my imagination. Jamie is so upset right now, she can't even talk about it. We were hoping this would all be behind us and the doctor would just monitor her Spond.
There was some good news. Basically her restrictions were lifted. She is allowed to go hunting, dive into a swimming pool, ride our 4-wheeler and ride rollercoasters. Needless to say, with the news we received today, Jamie wasn't in the mood to go to Hersheypark.
