I am continually amazed by the sad stories people relate to others who are either about to give birth or about to have surgery. Usually the birthing stories contain graphic descriptions of long painful labour and near death. This morning the lab technician advised John to be very careful post surgery because he could die of a blood clot. Her mother suffered this fate and another client at the clinic died after knee surgery.
At pre-surgery appointments we are advised about the risks and the signs to look for in the days following surgery. Please don't add to our stress level by sharing your traumatic stories with us!
