Here is my question to you "What if you DON'T have the operation?" - For me, that's what made me never regret my decision. I was told, without the operation I would probably not survive 3 years. That was over 3 years ago.
Know we're here for you. And if you want, I can give you my personal contact info, and will try everything I can to help you.
