Scoliosis Surgery
Donation protected
Hi there! Thank you so much for taking the time to come and see why I am reaching out-
I am a single Mom to 2 boys, and am awaiting surgery to fix what used to be a normal looking curved spine, but is now a mass piece of bone around my spinal cord. I had my first surgery for scoliosis when I was 7(which apparently wasn't done correctly) which is why I am having to have another one now that I am 30. There was a change in surgery. Apparently my back is a whole lot worse than the doctor initially thought it was. The doctor I have decided is the right doctor is Dr. Feet in Denver. All the info is in a post below and is all the same for the time off work. Only difference was having to stay in Denver for an additional week after being released from the hospital. The time line for surgery is still the same off time as far as I know, but a few extra hoops to jump through. I will be discharged home and the doctor said I will have to be off work for probably 4-6 wks. Which will be an extremely scary thing for me as I work full time to take care of my two boys.
With this page and the support of friends and family I am hoping to be able to raise money to go towards my out of pocket max/deductible, travel expenses that weren't originally in the picture etc.
Thank you in advance and please know that myself and my family appreciate it tremendously!
