This is our most recent product - it's flexible!

Renda,

I will be sure andask Dr. Gunderson or his nurse what brand of product they used in my repair.. If it was Medtronic, I will feel enititled to a tithe of your tithe as I have contributed to your personal success.

Sis. Trouvere,

I will try to get you a candid shot of the tape covering the incision. You can then determine the quality of my repair..

Right now my biggest issue is not being able to sleep more than an hour at a time and then only in my recliner. I know it will get better with time but I have pain now that I didn't have prior to the surgery. I have been told that is normal.

My boss had this surgery done last year and she had to sleep for the first week in a recliner too - - you will get better!

Bro. Phil,

Sorry to hear about your surgery. I hope you recover well.
I have visited your church 2 more times AND NO PHIL JONES. I joked that I don't think you go to church there. LOL I did not go this Sunday because I hurt my back.

Hope you are feeling better soon.
