Hi! I am the 34 year old wife and mother of four children ranging in age for 4-14. I was diagnoised at the age of 12, wore a brace for two years and opted not to have surgery. As I have gotten older my pain is worse. I have a double curvature with the top being 49 degrees and the bottom 69 degrees. I am hoping to set up surgery before the end of the year. My question is how do I really prepare my children for what to expect post op? The older kids have already taken on many of the chores to help me not over do it and my husband is a huge help. But I did not know if there was any special way to prepare them for the tough part of recovery.
