Even today it all doesn’t seem real because it was found completely by accident on a yearly check up for FMD. I had the surgery and was fine 5 days after. Perhaps because I had such a great suergon I never had a moment where I didn’t think I was going to be fine and this was a small bump in the road. So it’s hard to think of being a survivor. Anyone have any feed back?
