UPDATE!!!!! The surgery has now taken place - to download the footage click on  http://www.or-live.com/akronchildrens/1563 

On September 8, 2006 from Akron Children’s Hospital, Akron, Ohia, USA you will be able to watch a spinal fusion to correct Scoliosis. The link will enable you to see a preview of this surgery (it is quite graphic so not for the faint hearted). A one-hour live Webcast will show William Schrader, M.D., and Patrick Riley, M.D., surgically correcting a scoliosis spinal deformity. The doctors will provide live commentary and educational information during the Webcast.

This is a fantastic opportunity for those that have had this surgery, and for people awaiting the surgery.
