I once had a twisted spine, But my curved back is now aligned. With bolted screws and titanium rods, I was lucky enough to beat the odds. I went through not 1, but 2 surgeries. At the best hospital in the world Children's Mercy. I couldn't have imagined what I would have done, If I didn't go to your hospital which I say is #1. For what they do for kids like me, Who have a curve of 44 degrees. Thank you, because my back wouldn't even have 1 *****. They told me your a survivor Ms. Zaiser. I said I wouldn't have been if it wasn't for people like you doing things that most people wouldn't even do out of the blue. Words can't describe how lucky am I Even though the pain was so bad I had tears in my eyes as I cried. Asking why can't I just say goodbye and die!
But on June 9th, 2013 is when my recovery was finally over, I knew I would never again have uneven shoulders.
