I'm happy to report that the surgery Lexi had in 2015 - Vertebral Body Tethering - has been FDA approved!

Thank you to Lexi, the 130 patients before her, and the 200+ patients after her, for being scoliosis pioneers!

Also learn more about VBT and see Lexi's patient story at www.pediatricspinefoundation.org.

For 2 other inspirational VBT stories that made national news in the U.S. and Britain look up Anastasia Machenko's story on Good Morning America or Julia Carlile's story on Britain This Morning, Britain's Got Talent and Instagram.

If you know a family dealing with scoliosis we are happy to talk with them about their surgery options. They can message us here or Carey on FB or Jennie or Lexi on IG.

Thank you to all who supported Lexi and our family during this journey!
