I see on the show, right now that they just showed some parts of a cervical spine surgery and back surgery with the Lazer Spine Institute in Tampa, Florida.  I would just like to know...WHEN CAN I GET IN????

Per my "about me" comments, I've undergone the cloward proceedure with formalities? and live my daily life with uncontrollable massive pain.  I've been to countless spine institutes, specialists and those surgeons who fix other surgeons mistakes and with each and every visit I get the very same response.  Well Kathleen, we're really sorry you had to drive all this way, but...there's nothing we can do for you".  This has gone on for the past 7 years.  I've been forced to live on a few class 1 narcotics with no hopes of help in the future.  

Dear Doctors', I would be more than willing to go down to Florida and be an example of a glimmer of hope that others can have with this potentially helpful procedure.   I AM DESPERATE TO HAVE THE LUXURY OF LIVING A PRODUCTIVE LIFE!  If nothing else, to be able to live life in less pain.  To be able to get out of bed daily and to have the use of my upper body on a daily basis, once again.   Something I have not had since I was ejected, ran over and ran over again, throwing me 25 ft. thru the air.   I have lived this way since I was 17 years of age.  I just turned 45 May 14, so in short, I've lived this way 2/3 of my life.  I do not know or recall what its like to live without pain and limitations.

Please help, if you can.

P.S.  I also have a deranged knee (just watched the knee replacement segment).

Thank you for taking the time to read my comments!!!

All the best!

I've been told many times that I am a medical miracle.  That I should be confined to wheelchair after the extensive surgery I've had on my cervical spine.  God has a bigger plan for me.

However....with this in mind and all medical problems' past, present and current, I would make these doctors' head's spin!!!

Wish to knwo more...
