He is doing great! Sensitivity has started to set in. Look at the scar now!

His hips and low back pain have been pretty bad. The incision has just started hurting. And he is almost 2 inches taller.

It will be a Gnarly scar!

Thank you.

He already towers over me. LOL

Thank you! I missed this somehow. Sleep deprivation & being bullied by a 15 year old will do that I guess. lol. Thanks again.

He looks taller but we have not measured his height yet. We marked his height on the grow wall in the garage entry the night before surgery so he could compare. As soon as he feels well enough to walk out there again we will mark his new height. you know, before we knew he had scoliosis We recorded that he lost an inch But we accused him of cheating! We now know differently.

Great surgeon!

It has been so up and down. He puked for 11 hrs straight after surgery. He had to lay flat for 12 hours so he puked while flat, turning his head. Late that night, around midnight, the doctor consulted with the clinical pharmacist and they suggested IV benadryl for dizziness. They treated his vertigo and bingo! it got better. Today is post op day #2 and this afternoon has been better. Surgery sucks! Today we are trying all oral meds, and if it goes well, we will go home tomorrow.

Thank you

The shorter one is the kiddo getting surgery. Sigh. This is hard stuff man.

Brad, my 15 yo is having spinal fusion surgery tomorrow for scoliosis. It is a big surgery Please keep us in your prayers.

The tank still looks great!

Where is the potassium and lithium coming from? And are they significant? This the real question I think? And with nitrate low; water changes will not help unless the new water is high in nitrate right? I would probably/maybe put in a metal absorbing pad like poly filter For the lithium. But I would not leave it in for days. I also think that 20% water change will only reduce those higher elements by 20% so likely will not be of significance?

Wow! That is a pretty looking store.
