text: I've had 13 surgeries so far on my ears to repair the damage from years of ear infections, in hopes to someday correcting my hearing. It's routine for me, I've had the same surgery done over and over again but the night before and the day of I always get a little scared because you have no idea what is going to happen. You might react bad to the anestesia, your surgeon could screw up and damage you even more etc. etc. I always make out fine (I'm here typing to you aren't I?) but still the little bit of what if's always catch me and maybe others feel the same.
