    So just curious.

    (I'm like Ed too. If I'm 'shopping' its in and out, and no need to wander around. Well unless its at Lowes around tools.
    You know, I'm not sure Brad. And I"m too chicken to have my husband pinch me back there! You poor guys--my Dad is that way too with my mother and her shopping. She doesn't drive so he has to cart her around everywhere and WAIT. Poor guy.

      Debbei, I was just so pleased to hear that things have worked out for you, and your op was so successful. A positive post for people to read. Keep shopping, laughed at that.
      I could just see me doing that, I would have to be taken back to my car in a shopping trolley, just bet you could never have imagined prior to surgery that this was how you would be now.

      Regards Macky
      Operation 1966, Fused from T4 to L3, had Harrington rods inserted. Originally had an 85 degree Thoracic curve with lumbar scoliosis as well but had a good correction.
      Perfectly normal life till 1997 but now in a lot of pain daily. Consider myself very fortunate though.
