The benefits are IMMEDIATE. How many of these kids would be carrying on with their normal lives absent their surgery? Neither of my kids I'll tell you that.
Even if they don't become debilitated or a recluse, people with T curves are potentially playing Russian roulette with their lumbars absent treatment. Talk about odds. I would go to pretty long odds if it means potentially saving my kid's lumbar.
Surgery is ethical for a reason. It is NOT a choice for kids in range who can tolerate it. It clearly benefits them.
