Update
I wanted to post an update about my surgery. I am scheduled to have the surgery on Tuesday the 18th at St. Vincents. I am told it takes about an hour and a half to complete and after that I will be in the hospital for 1-2 days. They will go in and insert 2 screws in each of my 1st and 2nd vertebrae and attach rods crisscrossing like an X between them. Then they rough up the bone and take a piece out of my hip and attach it behind the "X" and let it grow the 2 vertebrae together. Dr. estimates it will take about 12 weeks to completely recover and I am going to lose some range of motion in my neck. Looks like I will be home for the Holidays Ha ha..
