congrats!
Paige, I am so glad that your surgery went well. Sounds like you have a great attitude, which is the best help in recovering well! Hang in there! There will be good and bad days, but soon the good will be a lot more common than the bad! Today is exactly two years since my surgery, and I am very thankful I had it done!

Hey, hows it going? I'm glad that your surgery went well!!!!
My name is Ashley and I am 15 years old. I was diagnosed with scoli last summer with a 30 degree curve.
When did you get diagnosed? How big was your curve before you had surgery?
I really want to get surgery so that all of the pain can go away!!! ERR!
So yeah, I guess I'll go. I'll talk to you later!
T.A.Y!!!!!!!(thinking about you)***ASHLEY***

Wow! 8 months old!!! Geez!!!!!!
I just don't want to deal with one of those stupid braces!!!!!
My back has been hurting all the time lately and I just don't want to deal with it. I'm not really worried if later on I do need to have surgery. I have no idea why I'm not.
Just don't ask I don't know!!!
Thanks 4 writing me so soon!!
Talk to you later,***ASHLEY***

Hi Paiger
I saw on your profile where you're from Ohio, and you had the surgery done at Children's in Columbus? I had mine done at Children's in Cincinnati. Great hospital. Glad to hear you're doing good, as am I. I had mine back in Nov., and after almost 3 months, I'm already driving again, back to school/school activities full time, church, and I'm even "lightly" dancing again for my tap/jazz dance classes...nothing TOO extreme yet! I show horses as well, but of course cannot do that for probably at least 6 months, so hopefully summertime I can! Anyways, keep your chin up hon and good luck!"Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom."
