Hi Ken, I thought there must be a reason you've been a little scarce. Get well soon.
My son had scoliois surgery last May. An incision from the top of his waste to midway around his shoulder blades. Two titanium rods up both sides of his spinal column, bolted in at ever vertebrae. The X-rays look absolutely barbaric. So far he's skiied four times this season and I simply cannot keep up with him.
