HI I am new to group and site. I am in pain every sec of every day. I had spinal fusion 3 yrs ago that took care of pain I had and made pain 50 times worse.
I work at home due to this and my life has been so altered. I have 7 yr old twins who have never known a mom without pain.

I have put link on my page to a contest I am in, under website, I do not want to put here, not sure of rules. The contest is for blogger for "good mood gig"... those of you who supper know the way it can devastate your life and that at a certain point a positive attitude is sometime the only thing that can help.... or I like the term
Fake it till you Make it!
I really hope that you will add me as friend, go to my page and vote for me. I entered way late- one week ago, and have managed to get 1300 votes, but that is not enough to make it to next round.
I thanks you for letting be a part of people that understand what I am going through, I have found that connecting with other people, online mainly has changed my feeling of being so isolated.
SMILE and MAKE it a GREAT day
Meredith

" Welcome to DS.
How old were you when you were diagnosed with scoliosis? Did they try a brace or did you have to go right for surgery?
I read that your pain is worse after surgery, have your Dr's said what went wrong?
My info is in my profile, I was stable for so long and I'm always curious about how everyone's different experience with scoliosis has affected them.
I don't know how you manage with twin 7 year olds, I imagine there is always something going on at your house!!
Good luck and again welcome :) "
