my aunt found it funny when she heard the " TOO YOUNG " comment too. But she should have had the surgery over 10 years ago. She hasn't willingly bent her knees for almost 15 years now. & her ankles bones were fused together by dr.'s about 10-15 years ago due to so much pain in them.

Her dr. said shes the youngest person they have ever done the surgery on out there.

& kinda off topic but still Dr. related. My dad holds a hospital record for largest skin absest removed. For months he was the talk of the hospital & when it was first removed they took the absest & showed it all across the hospital. It was about 5-6 inches long & about1 1/2 inches across. It was in his back

I had been bugging him for 5 years to get it looked at cause it kept getting bigger & the pin hole in the center was getting bigger & deeper (about 1cm long). He finally went & the Dr. said not to worry about it. Soon it'll erupt & cause u pain & then we'll remove it.

Not even a week later !!BOOM!! It started leaking & he couldn't even sleep in his chair without pain. & then he got it removed on the 3rd day hehehe..

The Dr's expected ME to pack his 6 inch hole in his back twice a day!! I told my dad he was NUTS!! No way in hell I'm touching it!! So we had a nurse do it

I told him the only time I'd do it was if I was the only one who was around & I'd do it to Max with no questions asked (cheaper then the vets doing it). I still get shivers thinking about that gaping hole.
