Thank you all for your best wishes, thoughts, prayers for the boys & their families.

That is really something which a health professional should be asked.
There's more bad chairs out there than good chairs, and a newly fused spine probably has to be supported a certain way.
Find out what he is allowed to use from a health care professional. My grandfather was told to stay flat on his back as much as possible for the first 2 weeks. Basically this meant a plywood spineboard without the straps, covered with thin foam from Cambodian Tire and a thin pillow. He was told to keep walking to a minimum. Hopefully things aren't as extreme for your nephew but if he has some special conditions make sure he adheres to them or their could be life long complications as a result.

I just had spinal fusion for the second time and your best bet is to talk to the proper people where they deal with this every day , you will likely be told to lay on your back as much as possible and I doubt that a large recliner will be needed , they are not the best remedy for that sort of fusion !
for my fusion recovery it was recommended that I lay flat on a firm mattress for 6 months, no sleeping on my stomach or side if possible and walking a maximum of 3 minutes per day. sitting was strongly advised against and that included sitting propped up in bed. speak to your physio/gp crew
Best chair for post spinal surgery recovery?
