He is having what I think is a fusion (he didn't have a lot of details and seemed fuzzy on them...and stessed...my mom got to him first) on his neck. He is not allowed to drive or work...or do much of anything really because they are worried about how much pressure is put on his spinal cord.
So some T&P would be appreciated. He's the same age I was when I had my fusion. Mine was low back and his is neck so the recovery times are drastically different (his is 10-12 weeks and mine was a year)but he's still in for a wake-up call.
And he's going to stay with my mom instead of staying here so they will both need T&Ps that they don't kill each other.
