Oh, I'm sure they've been digitized. This was also thirty years ago...I never thought of swinging back as an adult and asking to see them.

Although now I do wonder if they're online somewhere. What I have is believed to be extremely rare, but could be more common than we think because it's completely benign so the only way you know is if you have to have your lower spine x-rayed after an accident.

(Basically, I am missing ONE of the twelfth pair of ribs. Not both, which is apparently a bit more common. Just one. Never grew for some reason, I was told at the time, or rather my mother was, that it was a "genetic mutation.")
