Caroline2 @TrishB I hear you!! Did you have the second surgery in the end?? 6y
TrishB @Caroline2 nope - I‘ve had the pre-op which lasts 3 months. I did hope initially before Christmas - but now I probably hope afterwards! 6y
Caroline2 @TrishB argh, you‘re joking! 😔 the waiting around is the worst part isn‘t it! I hope they give you a date soon! 🤞 6y
