Steph De Lander provides an update.
Steph De Lander announced that she needed neck surgery at TNA Victory Road. She then said that she had a "new neck" after she underwent a C5 And C6 discectomy and fusion.
Speaking with Jamie Apps on The Commentary Booth - Live Via Satellite, De Lander was asked to comment on how her recovery was coming along.
“Good, feels good. Just a little cut [on my neck], I’ve got some bandages on it. I feel great. It’s been just about two weeks since since surgery now, and obviously I’ve got a long ways to go as far as recovery is concerned, but for two weeks post neck surgery, I’m feeling pretty good. When you hear neck surgery, you think worse case scenario. Obviously, neck injuries can be very, very dangerous. But luckily mine is kind of a preventative, like ‘Look, you’ve got this [nagging] neck issue. Let’s get it taken care of while we can, while you can recover, come back from it, be 100%,’ rather than waiting until it gets worse. So I’m feeling good, I’m happy I did it, on the road to recovery," De Lander said.
TNA previously announced that De Lander would be out for at least six to ten months following the surgery.
Fightful wishes Steph De Lander well in her recovery, and we will provide more information as it becomes available.
