Deb & Tyler went to Spokane this morning for Tyler's 6 month visit with the back surgeon at Shriners Children's Hospital. The news is good. For the past year now the curve of his spine has remained the same. In the doctor's words, "surgery would only help cosmetically". Tyler has been able to control the pain with meds and exercise. So... at this point his name has been taken off the perpetual appointment schedule and no restrictions have been placed on him. Obviously, mowing the lawn, cleaning his room, taking out the garbage and homework will continue to hurt his back, but his parents will have less guilt making him do it.
