TW: suicidal ideations, medical abuse Five years ago I was healing at home post-op after brain surgery. My surgery was a success but the whole process was miserable. My surgery was postponed the morning I got there. I was so thirsty waiting for hours with no fluids. 1/22
A nurse came by and took my temp and a half hour later I was told my surgery was being put off because I had a fever. I ask them to retake it, temp is fine. The nurse switched two of the numbers on the paperwork. So I wait even longer because they had called off the surgery. 2/22
I woke up after a successful decompression and fusion for an Arnold Chiari Malformation and cervical kyphosis that used my own bones for the bone graft. I thought I was dying. I could barely talk I was in so much pain. 3/22
