Prayers for a new 4 level cervical patient
Hello everyone,
I just spoke to a young man who posted several times on adrsupport - Pizzaman from New Jersey. Dr. Bertagnoli will operate on Feb 20th and replace discs at C2-3, 3-4, 4-5, and 5-6. He is in Turkey now visiting his family. His brother will fly in from London to be with him for the surgery. He's concerned about getting back to work, owns a small restaurant. Feels like he has to be there AND work, lifting large cans of tomato sauce!!  He is going to call me when he gets back in the States. I will encourage him to become a member here and let us help him, plus share his experiences. Thanks, Sandy

Great Steve,
Didn't know you were going so soon. Can't keep track of everyone heading to Germany. Will keep you in my thoughts and prayers also and may God bless Dr. B and all who attend to your well being. Are you going to have surgery in Straubing or Bogan. Pizzaman's first name is Mike. Think he's stay in Straubing at the Hotel Theisitor sp?? and surgery in Bogen. Peter is picking them up at Munich Airport. Thanks for taking the time to say hi to Mike if you have a a chance. Another thought - so many have gone to Dr. Bertagnoli - maybe he could open a clinic here! Oh shoot, that won't work, he'd have to charge more!  Sandy
