Sairah is a teenager from Florida w a complex scoliosis and congenital anomalies including cardiac, requiring previous heart surgery.
She knows Jasmine, also from Jacksonville FL who had scoliosis surgery here recently as well! She actually went to see Jasmine recently and left comment on blog about Jasmine's new shape and improved height.
When I came into Sairah's preop room to see her this morning, I was overwhelmed by the crowd in the room! Multiple family members were there, and her pastor and pastor's wife. What an awesome loving support group!
We took this team picture together after their pastor led us all in awesome prayer holding hands in a circle. Sairah and her mom wanted me to share this on the blog for others in the expanded support community.

How can we care for scoliosis and kyphosis and spondylolisthesis better with conservative care like physical therapy, high-tech scoliosis braces, exercise and other techniques? What can be done to improve surgical care, and understand choices for surgery, learning from those around the world? How can we learn from aviation and from Deming's principles of "Standard Work" to constantly improve spine and all healthcare?
