Spinal Fusion Surgery – Helpful Tips Booklet
This booklet was written by four young patients, ranging in age from middle school to high school, who have undergone spinal fusion surgery to correct scoliosis. Some of them had a “C” curve and others had an “S” curve. Between all of them, they experienced daytime bracing, nighttime bracing, no bracing, and in the end, spinal fusion surgery. Their goal is to pass the information that they’ve experienced and learned to other families to help make their journey through spinal fusion surgery a little bit easier.
