Thank you tangobang for the name, I know some medical terminology, took a lot for medical coding and billing, but couldn't for the life of me remember what they said it was called when they were getting it done He is limited from certain activities now, he was big into Karate, I am not sure what belt but pretty advanced I know, and now they have told him that is not an activity he can do. He may have to have the other side done it the future too.

Again prayers going out for your daughter and you and your entire family!!
