My name is Robert and I am a casualty of AVASCULAR NECROSIS at the age of 38. By occupation I have been an underground miner all my life mining from coal to prcious metals. Pain has been an unwanted friend of mine for years. I have been operated on for knees 3 times, shoulder 3 times, back (L5-S1)one time. All of which were work related (occupational hazards as they say) College educated, supervisor,mechanic, electrician,foreman state and federal certified. What I am getting at is why the HELL me. Dedicated family man. The only thing I can figure is that my drive and desire to support my family led me to work instead of being a lame duck. Corticosteroids for all the pain and ailments led to my AVN. As well as a few roof and rib falls
