Thanks Deane and Jerry: Deane...I hope to have the success you had. I am looking forward to being able to get out of bed without the help of a cane.

Jerry...I have talked with the two top neuro surgeons in the Fort Myers area. I feel as though I picked the best one for my needs.

Thanks again to all. The support shown on this wonderful forum is nothing short of amazing!

God bless you all,
