Hi all, I was a member here back in 2001,just after I had ACDF at C5-C6 with own hip bone. Well,I loved all the support I received then and all the wonderful Spineys who shared their own experiences,surgeries,meds,pain,etc.

Since then I met another Spiney who had ACDF at C6-C7. We have been together now for 10 years. At least we can relate to one another on our pain and be understanding of one another.

I was also married to a Chiropractor for 22 years. We had seperated in 06 but when he developed Alzheimers,I took him in to care for him. My boyfriend helped too.He passed in 07. One of the Moderators here was an Anesthesiologist but I forgot his name I will peek in from time to time and maybe I will see some of my old boardie friends and make some new ones. Wishing you all a pain free day,or a manageable day. Shiloh
