"I was having trouble with my left arm. It was getting so bad I decided to go to a doctor to see what the trouble was.

They did an X-ray and MRI and it showed that the opening in my spine was so small that it was pressing on my spinal cord. They said it could get worse if I didn’t have something done. I decided I needed a second opinion, for this I decided to see Dr. Dagnew. He told me the same thing. I decided to have the surgery because I had a lot of things I wanted to do and couldn’t do much with my arm that way. I chose to have Dr. Dagnew do the surgery. I think Dr. Dagnew did a GREAT JOB!!! His staff was wonderful and all the people at the hospital were Fantastic!!! I I had my surgery on May 13th and our great grandson was born on that day. I have returned to all my activities. I am able to hold my grandson and if I had not had the surgery I may not have been able to hold him in my arms. I want to thank all of the people involved for what they did for me and the care they gave me and my family. May God bless you all. "
