I just want to thank God, Raphael, Efrom, my Dr.s and you all. Today I visited Dr. Kevin Rutz. He performed a spinal fusion on my lower back on February 25, 2008. He said that I need not see him anymore. The x-ray pictures taken to day indicate that my bones are healing at a rate faster than normal. I asked him if I could go water skiing and he said I could do anything I wanted.
I left that place thanking everyone. I had goosebumps several times. I thanked the Dr. for giving me my life back to me. He was very gracious. I literally said "God bless you Dr. Rutz".
I want to thank you all for your friendship and prayers as well. One last thing. When I spoke with Dr. Rutz as I was being prepped for surgery on the morning of February 25th I asked him if I could invite some friends of mine into the OR. He looked at me quizzically.... I said Angels. He smiled and said "Yes absolutely. As many as I'd like." True story.
