Riding in the future?
« on: October 02, 2013, 06:45:19 AM »
Just got back from the doctor. He said my "back was a mess". I  have 5 ruptured discs. 4 in the lumbar region and 1 at c4 in my neck. This is in addition to prior surgery for c5,6,7 in my neck. I used to get teased about what a gravy job I had at General Motors. I guess I'm lucky to have riden at all. Surgery already scheduled.



Thanks for letting me vent,  Bob
