Whilst i am not in the habit of doing this.I was looking around  a little earlier to see if i could find out what I could about the op that I am having done.Just to make sure that the docs were not pulling the wool over my eyes.

I found this one - i know it says '4kids' but that is because the majority of the time,this type of thing is normally done on kids and not adults.

I would like to know what people think though.Whilst it may seem like a lot of reading.It isnt really as it is illustrated really well

Let me know what you think?

    I'm glad you posted this CJ as, although we have spoken about it and I know the basics of what is going to be done in March, it makes a huge difference to read it word for word and to see the diagrams too.  I have always been a 'visual' person when it comes to taking in information.

    I am glad that you didn't have this done when you were a child as, it says that when done on young children, it is then quite usual for the op to have be repeated.  You may, hopefully love, only have to have this done once.  I know everyone here will be thinking of you and wishing you the quickest recovery too.

    Hey Luce hun :)  i had to copy and paste the link directly into my - what to you call the thingy space where you put website addresses in then click the little 'go' arrow?   God dont you just hate it when you can't think of a word?!?  It's very interesting and frightening at the same time.

    I'm off to bed shortly so at least I've got another 8 hours before I have to get up LOL!
