Well, we have a surgery date of June 22, 2005. It seems so far away and yet I know time will fly by. Alex, my son, is okay with it. I spoke with his guidance counselor who told me he mentioned it to her and seemed to have a good attitude.
Anyway, what I wanted to ask you is this - do you, or did you ever, feel that no one really understands how serious this surgery is and how hard it will be on the person undergoing it?
I told my manager today that we have a date and he remarked "So you aren't going to start worrying about it right away are you?" I know he didn't mean to offend me but all I could think of is, if it were his child, he wouldn't be so cavalier about it. Well, maybe I'm just a bit sensitive to it. It just seems no one really understands how serious it really is.
Well, thank you for listening. I imagine unless you or a loved one is facing this, its hard for someone to really empathize.
