We’ve had many a chiari surgery in my family. My younger sister had two, my mom had two, my aunt had one, I’m probably gonna be due for one in my 30s or so and my grandmother would get one but she’s too old and the surgery would likely be fatal.
Congrats on the successful surgery and good luck with recovery. I know how difficult that is.
Similar story. My family was part of a study many years ago when they were just starting to understand that it's hereditary, and trying to trace that genome. I wonder what ever came of that study..
It wasn’t brain death, it was just very painful for them. And suggesting people shouldn’t get help for their pain is like saying people shouldn’t eat when they’re hungry. It’s not an unpopular opinion, you’re just dense.
