emergency back surgery due to an injury while performing...I bet its more the

culminative wear and tear of years of perfoming and that its DDD and that one or

more Discs just gave out on him....its a reminder that this disease can affect

everyone...from celebrities on down...maybe he will become an advocate of Spine

disease, and better pain management now!!!

I looked on the internet yesterday to see what actually happened to his back but

could not find anything. Would be interesting to know.

This may seem a little mean but with Tiger Woods backing out of that tournament

with pain from a bulging disk was wondering how bad it really was, bet not as

much pain as most of us are in every day. Would be so nice to have the insurance

and money to get good care.
