I am 74, always considered to be healthy, but ooh Gee:
Surgeries: breast Bx, benign
2 D&C, removed tubes and ovaries a year ago, then just removed uterus a month ago.
Have had hiatus hernia surgery( did not help)
Cataract surgery did not go well followed by corneal transplant, Ortho: knees scoped 30 years ago, both hips and one knee replaced, about to have the second done in January.
Has any one else had such luck(?)
But no diabetes, no hypertension, no heart disease !
Stay well all
And hope no one else has been so lucky to go to the OR as often!!

Wow, @ladybug4joints You've had more than your share for sure!

My wife and I were married for 42 years and during those years she averaged a surgery a year, plus a few extras thrown in just for good luck 🙂 Nice to see you carrying a positive attitude.

She did too and even after her brain cancer diagnosis, she always tried to see the non-negative parts of her life.

Keep it up and congrats!
Strength, Courage, & Peace

Wow, can't believe all that you've been through. I don't have answers other than to say "You are one tough cookie"...good luck...
