What Is Backbone Buddies and
Why Was It Created?
As the founder of Backbone Buddies, I know exactly what is feels like to be the kid who had to face scoliosis surgery at a young age with nobody to connect with on a personal level. This led to feelings of isolation, sparking a passion within me to ensure that no one ever feels alone on their spinal fusion journey. This drove me to create Backbone Buddies, a unique support group dedicated to providing a caring community where individuals can connect, share experiences, and receive the support they need to navigate their journey with strength and resilience.
