Dear reader,
Hi! My name is Caroline and I am the creator of this website! I am 18 and currently a Senior in high school and this website is the product of my senior project.
When I was 14 I was diagnosed with Scoliosis. I had a 40 degree curve and it was a very quick progressing case, so only 5 months later in November of 2010 I had spinal fusion surgery. It fused my T-10 through L-3 vertebrae together to keep my curve from getting worse.
My experiences with Scoliosis are what prompted me to create this website. I know from experience how hard this can be on a young child. When I was diagnosed I didn't understand much of what was going on, so my goal is to make it easier on children who are diagnosed by giving them this website as a place to learn more about their medical condition.
My e-mail address for this website is at the top right of the page, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me!
Thank you,
Caroline
