Hi,
I'm new to this site. My 14 year old son will soon be having a spinal fusion on C4-6. He doesn't have a curviture, but does have neurofibromatosis which has caused instability.
I know they will be shaving bone from his hip, and he will have to wear a halo. I just want to know if anyone's child has gone through anything like this, and what to expect. I went through a similar surgery 35 years ago, and hope things have improved.
