Description

Hello everyone! I take it most of you here have heard of the condition; "Scoliosis", If you just randomly stumbled upon my book, I'll give you the definition (You may get confused otherwise ^_^) Wikipedia: "Scoliosis (/ˌskɒlɪˈoʊsɪs/; from Ancient Greek: σκολίωσις skoliosis "obliy, bending") is a medical condition in which a person's spinal axis has a three-dimensional deviation.Although it is a complex three-dimensional deformity, on an X-ray, viewed from the rear, the spine of an individual with scoliosis can resemble an "S", "?" or "C", rather than a straight line." That looks rather confusing, even to me. Let me break it down. Your spine looks similar to this: " | " A spine under 10 degrees is normal. My spine, and others suffering from scoliosis looks somewhat like this: "S" Or "?" Or "C". Some have it from birth, others develop it as they grow, usually at adolescence, but it can be diagnosed at any age. This is my story, and even as I start it I do not know how it will end. I'm happy to give advice to those who also have scoliosis, or have a family member who have it, and I'm always here to chat if you want to talk to someone who understands what you're going through :)
