i made it to an operating room after 15 years of being dismissed by doctors and reprimanded by my biological sperm donor after getting a slipped rib
never stop advocating for yourself
It's hardly 'slipping through the cracks' when it's all so seemingly by design. That said, good on you, I'm so glad whenever I hear people finally get the treatment they have a right to and deserve :)
thanks for the kind words, now i’ve made it out the other side of the OR in a resounding success
turns out it wasn’t just one loose rib strumming one nerve, but 3 loose ribs strumming a whole damn chord of nerves ahaha
