If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

I was looking for a clear definition of losis verses litis and found this published by the Laser Spine Institute: Spondylitis, Spondylolisthesis, and Spondylosis Definitions
Spondylosis – The basic definition for spondylosis? is “spine problem.” The term refers to age-related degeneration of the spine, either in the vertebrae, facet joints, or intervertebral discs. It is a general term used to describe the weakened state of the spine as people age. This weakened state can lead to specific problems like osteoarthritis of the spine, herniated discs or bulging discs that cause painful stiffness and neural compression. Spondylosis is not a diagnosis in and of itself.
Spondylitis– Also called ankylosing or rheumatoid spondylitis, this condition refers to the chronic inflammation of the vertebrae and the joints surrounding the vertebrae, both facet and sacroiliac.
Spondylolisthesis – This is a degenerative spine condition where one vertebra slips forward and over the vertebra directly beneath it. Mild cases are often asymptomatic, but more severe cases can cause compression on nearby spinal nerves.
