Hey, me too. Kind of bummed that had to happen. I had a few invasive and unnecessary operations as a kid.

I walked on my tippy toes for example, and lost flexibility in my ankles. Rather than, you know, stretch and exercise my ankles… My Achilles’ tendons were cut and stretched, then I was in casts with my ankles extended for quite a while.

Nothing was really physically wrong, I was just a weird kid.

Western medicine is both miraculous and barbaric
