Sasha update

we threw Sasha a little suprise birthday party on Wedsnight, she
thought I had forgotten her birthday and gone and played pool, she was
on top of the moon after the party after a very down day. We even got
her a winnie the pooh cake.

she is improving, even though it is slowly, she can walk short
distances on crutches and its starting to walk unaided in the pool. She
still is in alot of pain and her sciatic nerve in her left leg is
playing up still. It will be at least 12 months before she gets back on
a bike, maybe longer

if you want to read what she had done

she had both the BAK cage fusion and the Pedicle Screws

it looks a lot like this except on the bottom 3 Vertibrae and is all
permanent
