I would go over the films with them and say, here's the problem.
And then he told them what it meant.
We're going to have to do surgery.
We just need to fix the fusions that never healed.
None of them healed.
Christy was speechless, trying to take it all in.
I said, the first surgery from Dr. Schneider?
He said, no, none of the hardware has healed, none of it.
And I'm picturing it in my head, all these screws and bolts in my mom's back just floating around.
And I asked him, I said, so my mom was walking around with a broken back all this time?
He said, yeah, none of it's healed.
My mom didn't say anything.
She was just listening in shock.
My brain was just going in every which direction.
Like, do we trust this doctor?
I asked him if this was going to paralyze my mom.
I still believed that he was right, Dr. Schneider, and anybody that touched her was going to paralyze her.
There was nothing to be done.
Dr. Narotsky told her that wouldn't happen.
He wasn't pushy at all.
