I'm possibly looking at my third cord surgery...I've had 18 surgeries total...and honestly can say that I wasn't afraid of
any of them, but this next one looms large. I'm just getting too old for this!
I believe my last round of surgeries left me somewhat traumatized, physically and emotionally. It's taken me a couple of years to recoup from them. And now, since I also had a muscle 'flap' procedure the last time, this next surgery will be even more involved.
So, for what it's worth....I'm afraid too!
Hopefully, that ol' "John Wayne" spirit will creep back up, and we'll both do just fine. Hang in there, cowgirl.
