jens1 8 Posted March 27, 2013 I am scared of the surgery part. I don't know why, seeing that I have had 5 open back surgeries. One would think I wouldn't be scared of surgery anymore. Lol! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lol![/quote'] Recently I've begun to feel the same way. But I don't think it matters how many times you have had surgery, each one is still a surgery that has risks involved. You just have to have faith it will go well! 1 Meganrvan89 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
