(**the first two surgeries were NOT performed by Dr Wolf.)

e was so kind, from the discounted price of $2000 USD to the personal delivery of my pain meds to my hotel room when he forgot to send them with me. He patted me on the back, put his arm around my shoulders and told me, “we’ll get it done right this time.”

long story short, i’m unsatisfied with my results to the point that i don’t believe any surgeon [in Alberta, as it’d be covered as long as the surgeon is here + long wait list] could fix it/do a good enough job. i’ve looked through possible surgeons here in canada who could do it, but the most attractive option i’ve seen is dr. wolf in detroit, michigan.

luckily, my quote with dr. wolf is $2000 USD. i’d also be paying the cost off flying out there, medications (i think?), and the stay at a hotel, though luckily again my parents are willing to cover a portion of the cost.

It’s alright though. I feel much better about it than I would if this had happened either of the last two surgeries, presumably because I’m so happy with the functionality side of my chest. By that, I mean that I’m happy with it when I have a shirt on. It’s flat enough, which is what I mean by “function”, but I figure one more surgery and it’ll be just about nice enough to feel normal without a shirt on.
