    No, thankfully I've never had any serious surgery... only had my gallbladder removed through my navel. I'll say a prayer for you and your medical staff.... Kay

    Hee hee, I have a "bone" shaped cookie cutter, but it is not in the shape of a spinal bone, or I'd send it to you to make cookies for the staff!

    Hmm, the bones of the spinal column are sorta oval, maybe you could make some with a round hole in the middle!
