I would much rather have the XL Nuvasive disc than the Mavrick disc. The XL goes in through the side which I really like and Dr. Pimenta is a top, world wide known surgeon. The XL is in clinical trials right now in 13 states now. Also to travel to Brazil than India is a little bit less scary. Brazil has 24 percent unemloyment right now so a lot of poor people. I will write more once I know more, I just found out this morning. Yeah!!!!
Hey Sandy,

That's who you wanted, so I hope all goes smoothly and you can be in recovery ASAP! I am still waiting to hear from Clavel.
Brazil is awesome... I'm sure you won't be getting out too much, but I wouldn't worry about things if you stay in good areas and keep your purse held tight. Did you schedule already?

Jules
