Hi Lynda, What the Famous Shrink *forgot his name* told our group at the support meeting last month was, This surgery will make a good union better and a bad one, worse. I'm still pre-op, (praying it'll be my turn soon)but my b/f didn't want me to have this at first, then I gave him just one to many reasons why, then topped it off with,"It's my body, I'm unhealthy and unhappy like this, so it don't much matter anyways, love me thick or thin, or there's the door."
