Back surgery-- I'm sure he'll give details once he's back online, which I don't think will be too terribly long. I'd offer details except I'm afraid I'll get some wrong and then he'll have to correct me.

I think he's got the same thing my Dad has... I can't remember what vertebrae it affected though... I hope to God he feels better. They want to do surgery on my Dad too.

they cut away some tissue that was inflamming muscles around his lower back, he said it was like five vertabreas from his rear end of something, I guess they just cut the pain out, per say

good news, glad to hear that he came thru ok and also that he is done with this surgery cause you could tell thru his words that he was not looking forward to it. now he can get on with the rest of his life.

Here's hoping for an uneventful, quick recovery. After all, somebody has to drive those new plates all over town!

Well he would be glad to know English Channel was out on the rock hard turf at Saratoga this morning with Artie Schiller and Showing Up. All three put in nice works.
