My 14yr old daughter has scoliosis

[Guest guest]

Hi came across this website and read a lot of info on here my 14yr old daughter

got diagnosed with scoliosis Jan 2010 with an S curvature she had an MRI scan in

may 2010 and had 60 degree angle in the lower spine and 50 degree angle in the

upper spine and was told she needed surgery including Harrington rods. My

daughter has been back tonthe hospital twice since may 2010 and has been given 5

different dates for surgery aug, nov 2010 April, may, June 2011 and being told

the consultant is taking on emergencies instead she is suffering from pains and

spasms in her back she is a little fighter and keeps her spirits up. Not sure if

this is normal to wait this long, her right shoulder is higher than the other

and she hides this by wearing baggy clothes and stands with a tilt. It's really

hard to see her like this and I tend to cry when I'm on my own as I do not no

how I can help her and when i mention her back she goes mad and dosnt want to

talk about it. any info would be much appreciated thanks a worried mum julie.
