Next Tuesday my 17 year old daughter is having major back surgery. 5 years ago she broke her back and has been hunched over since compensating for the pain. When she broke it there wasn't anything they could do. Now she has scoliosis. They are cutting her open the entire length of her spine. They tie wire around each spinal disc and then put in a titanium rod. They tie each spinal disc to the rod and slowly over 12 hours straighten out her back.
IM FREAKING OUT!!!
🙏🙏❤️❤️🌺 In my prayers X
I will have you and your daughter on my mind.its natural to worry specially over a big operation.im sure she will be in the hands of great professionals try not get to worried around your daughter just be reassuring it will be hard but she needs you to be strong for her.
Hi aaronm
I’m sorry to hear about your daughters accident and injuries..I can understand you being freaked out about her having the operation..
.
I had not heard about scoliosis until recently when Princess Eugenie got married here in U.K...she has scoliosis and has a scoliosis scar which she showed by wearing a wedding dress that revealed it. I thought it was a brave thing for her to do and such a good thing to highlight it ..and make people aware..I found it inspiring...I’m attaching a link which gives some details ..she looked so very happy and beautiful,on her wedding day...😊
Thinking of you and your daughter...

There is a famous YouTube entertainer, Link Neal (he & his best friend are Rhett & Link). His daughter went through surgery for scoliosis, too. He talks about the post-surgery here: clip.fail/video/GjCnyJN0OYU
Thank you
I will pray for you and your daughter. hope everything goes well for your daughter 
I am saying prayers for you, your daughter and your family!
My daughter has a friend who went through this. First a break of several vertebrae then the scoliosis developed over several years. The rod in her back now is incredibly long (I saw the post-op X-ray). She is a BALLERINA now. And has the most amazing posture. I'm hoping for outcomes as excellent as that! LOTS of prayers and will be thinking of you!!
I will pray for you and your daughter. A girl that I went to high school with also had surgery for scoliosis. All went well and she recovered quickly it seemed!
A, you and your daughter have already been in my prayers and I will continue right on praying for them. A billion kazillion protective and healing hugs for both of you!
I will pray for your family, no greater power on Earth!
Agreed. Thank you
You and your daughter are in my prayers. May God direct the doctors and be with you and your family
Thank you
Oh I feel for you Aaron! Its not nice feeling helpless while someone you love is going through it. My thoughts will be with her (and you!) You'll stay strong for her. (And much waiting on her when she is recovering!!)
Sue
She won't like being waited on anymore than others that are waiting on her.
Prayers for you and your precious daughter! My daughter will have surgery probably in Jan. I know the anxiety you are going through!!
Prayers and blessings are heading your way and hers. May God guide the hands of the surgeon(s).
Thank you.
aaronm, My prayers and thoughts will be with you on Tuesday.
May you feel the presence of the forum behind you.
We are there for you. x
That sounds like a pretty complicated surgery and it’s normal to be stressed but I will pray that God will give you peace and guide the doctors’ hands. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you
Hey aaronm, I know this is a very trying time for you and your family and so whatever you need your online family is here for you every step of the way. You are in my prayers and I know your daughter will make it through. With all our love xx
Hi aaronm, I just wanted to tell you my friend had the same operation many years ago for scoliosis and her back is strong now and she has very good posture. I will be thinking of you and your daughter and hope everything goes well. Sending big supportive hugs.
aaronm, Just a reminder that you are not alone in this tomorrow. We're all behind
you. I will be keeping you and your family in my thoughts. Stay Strong x
Sending good vibes your way for tomorrow ..for all of you...
