Back in 1994, Don broke his back and needed surgery. He put it off until six years ago. “My back started getting really bad, to the point of where I would have to roll out of bed onto the floor, crawl to the wall and pull myself up.” Once he could hardly walk, he went to see a neurosurgeon and had spinal fusion surgery. His doctor told him the procedure was successful, but the key to the surgery would be physical therapy.
