I'm back home again

19 years ago

Hi all. I'm back home again and it looks like I'l be here for another three months or so. They ended up doing a two level bone graft along with the fusion so I have two plates and six screws holding my neck together as they try to fuse three vertebrae. At least I'll get to play with my plants a lot. And hang out on the boards.

Ack! I've only had 2 vertebrae in my neck fused, so I know some of what you're going through. Just watch bending your head over to look at orchids (even with a neck brace on). Don't overstress your neck until the grafts take, but they usually grow in pretty quickly. Prayers for your fast healing and good to have you back!
