Default don't forget

There will come a time when you are feeling so so good, and then you may have this weird anomaly and wonder in the back of your mind what's wrong. I went through so many ups and downs that you have to remember the time when you pain was bad. I know it sounds strange to say that, but it's true. I am just over one year post op and I am 90% better than before, so I have to remember when I felt pain. I thank God for enabling us to fine Dr. Clavel, blessing him with his abilities, and for the success of my surgery! The things that I took for granted before all of this happened to me; life is very different now.
