Hey John,
I may have not met you personally but hope the best for you. I will be going up with my church to the mountains for a retreat and I will be sure to keep you in my prayers bro. Just know in the end everything will be alright, and this is all for your good.

Thank you ALL so much. Really, I appreciate all the good lucks and prayers for me. It makes me feel more relaxed and not as worried going into this surgery knowing so many kind people have me in their prayers. Thank you.
AVE, Yes man, long time no see, I went to the meet once and didn't recognize all the new people, I missed you, I guess you were busy that night or something, I'll try to come out during the summer since I have night classes now and I'm busy as heck.
Anthony, hey man, I missed hanging out at the meets with you, you were the only one I recognized lol. Anyways, thanks a lot for offering help, I appreciate it!
Choku, Thanks a lot I appreciate your kind words.
Ballz, you have scoliosis? It turns out a lot of people have slight curve of the spine, but it's most likely under 15 degrees, which doctors don't really like to cal it "scoliosis". But 40-50 degrees is intense and gets really painful.
Hollandaze, I'll keep the love sack in mind, my brother actually has a big one in his room. I might have to relocate that lol.
Woocabin, thanks a lot for the prayers. Thanks for including me in your prayers when you go on a retreat.
All of you are great people, I will be in and out of this in no time, I will post back up and keep everyone update.

I'm feeling you for sure, I have a really bad back problem too, but it's not spine related like yours, its nerve related (where my right scapula is). Sucks being tall sometimes... I'm 6'6.6 (not kidding about the .6) Everything is made for normal height people and we get jacked.

Being anything over 6'3, usually has ankle, knee, spine/back/nerve, etc. problems, plus I feel like my growth spurt was retarded, I grew wayyy to fast.
Thanks man.

Oh 53 Degrees is nothing. There are some people who have 80,90,100+ degrees, when it comes to 70-80, the spine curves too much that you start crushing some of your organs, which include your heart, which leads to death. So yeah it sucks. Search scoliosis on google and you'll find some nasty x-ray pics.
