Looking at that it looks like not having surgery would have been a better option

Dear god- my grandmother, who never exercised in her life, could walk better at 95 years old.

He's basically a full-blown invalid at this point (b4 the age of 60). My grandmother is close to 100 and moves like a teenager compared to him.

Yup, my uncle is 83, in gym everyday, still does construction on his kids houses, etc... (Looks 63).
This poor guy is a sad case...

It sounded like he did not follow the doctor's recommendations for downtime from training and recovery after any of the many surgeries.

Sound like anyone you know?

He quickly went from He-man to Ram-Man after all those procedures ( 13 surgeries in total.)

His spine is now one solid bone stick with absolutely zero mobility. All segments are entirely fused and held together by 14 screws, 2 cages and 2 rods.

All that hardware is pinching on his nerves and causing all the back pain + numbness in his legs.

He was supposed to have them removed at some point,  which may or may not alleviate some of his suffering.

Maybe one day.
