I know you hate to hear it, but it could have been worse. I have a good friend who had something similar happen to her as a baby, they did a spinal tap on her and managed to ruin her spinal cord. She's a paraplegic now and has spent her entire life in a wheelchair because of a mistake on the doctors part. But it's still sad that something like that happened to you. It's things like that, that make me scared of doctors.

And there is no reason to be ashamed of a scar, scars are are a unique part of your body nothing at all to ever be ashamed of.
