Addie’s Story

Site created on June 9, 2020

Addie was diagnosed with scoliosis when she was eight years old. Despite daily physical therapy over the last 3 years and wearing a back brace for the past year, her curves have progressed. Today she will receive a spinal fusion from t-2 to t-12 to correct the curve and twist in her spine. She is nervous but also very excited to be healed today by Dr. Lloyd Hey. She is grateful to be able to look forward to a new straight back and to a future with reduced pain. We’ll use this site to update friends and family. She’d loves any notes of encouragement you all would like to share. Much love to all!
