waffling about orchitectomy stuff

I haven't made the call yet but Oh man, I'm probably gonna have to inform my dad that I'll be down for a couple days or weeks or whatever due to orchi, holy shit. What am I even gonna do about that?

Further: my endo is cool, but is the surgeon or whoever gonna be super fucking weird about it? Is every staff member I interact with gonna be super fucking weird about it?

distress For a split second I had hoped that being more chill about my anatomy now would help, but talking to basically-randoms, or like, your dad, about your body still seems really unfun.

How much detail do you need to give your dad though, if you don't want to? Just say you're getting surgery shrug-outta-hecks

He is so going to ask if this is THE SURGERY just because Idk, why wouldn't he. It would be so fucking awkward to explain, ggghhhhhhhh I do NOT want to discuss with my fucking DAD about that bocchi-cry

He also might ask if it's surgery on my sternum or smth, and if I say "no" well...........

You could blame all future surgeries as being your sternum, could be kinda funny.

"Haha I got my 13th sternum op and it still didn't help lea-finger-guns "

i keep asking them to put in an nuclear reactor but they wont so we're compromising... repeatedly

[-] ashinadash@hexbear.net 7 points 3 months ago

yea

[-] naom3@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago

You could just say it’s a different surgery and leave it at that maybe? I guess it kinda depends on how likely he is to pry about it

[-] ashinadash@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago

Yeah basically what I'm worried about, if he pries. Also if I lie I have to keep a bit going......
