The blog entry and many comments from others can be shown to be scientificially illiterate. CD makes some of the points.
Similar to thread about rod breakage on Fix's forum, it's one Emily Litella moment after the next with some folks.
What we have here is a scared mother* who clearly knows zip about the research (or lack thereof) on scoliosis treatment modalities who canNOT be expected to get the details correct. I am SO glad the doctor's name was left out because I think it's risible how some folks come on here claiming respected experienced surgeons are telling them patent nonsense.
You would think from reading some of the posts here that orthopedic surgeons are complete idiots and that mothers with ZERO medical training, not to mention LESS THAT ZERO advanced training in orthopedic surgeon act like they know more than these surgeons.
If you don't understand why surgeons do something then just ask them. What we have in this thread is certain folks not knowing and instead of asking, they instead make up wild, baseless nonsense.
*I searched on the text strings for that blog entry and can't find the source. I am wondering if it is a real blog entry on some blog. I think it would find it but I'm not sure.
