I hate to hear that David has been having the same type of neck spasm/pain. Kenny is still having severe spasm's several times a day. He is definitely using the pain meds and the lidocain(sp?) patches are helping some. He had his first physical therapy treatment this week for the pain -- way too early to have any relief.

I really have sympathy for him -- when a spasm hits, it brings him to his knees, no breathing, no eye movement, etc until it eases a bit. We will see how the next few PT treatments work. Beyond that, I just don't know what his options will be.

Hang in there!
