Surgery, that's scary!

My mother is scared of hospitals. That's because she has been working in the health care for years, and she has seen too many mistakes happen. My mother needs to have some surgery done on her hip. She has needed that for a very long time. She can hardly walk at all without crutches, but she is stubborn and doesn't listen to any good advice regarding her health.

Some time ago I called my mother and told her that I am planning to have two different surgeries done this spring (no plastic surgery but internal stuff). I told her that I booked them myself. I wanted to get them over with. It didn't take more than a week until my mother had booked herself surgery too!

I really do hope my mothers's surgery will improve her possibility to walk.

As a matter of fact, now I've cancelled both my surgeries...for different reasons... I don't think I need them.
