Good Luck
Hopefully you still have some left

I had a neighbor who had what was
supposed to be a simple spinal
surgery with the recovery/rehab
much longer than the surgery.
They had him all tractioned up
and took him loose too soon.
Whatever they cut wasn't healed
enough yet, and when he moved
around, something popped and
he was paralysed.
After a lengthy repair and rehabilitation
he was able to walk/ hobble along,
and could talk and other simple stuff,
but his neck wouldn't pivot and his
arms were limp and useless.
He went on for some years like that,
and finally passed when his breathing
failed
