This almost made me sad thinking of my childhood, in and out of the hospital for tests and surgery... to me it was just normal and now as a 24 year old I know how abnormal a childhood it really was. Listening to people talk about their adulthood surgeries and knowing I had to deal with such scary things as young as 6 months old. My heart goes out to anyone dealing with medical challenges, at any age, but especially to those dealing with it as children. It's a childhood no one should have.

I had surgery on my leg when I was 14. Before I was brought in my doctor asked what music I liked to listen to. I was kinda confused by the random question so I said something like "I don't know Shakira." The first thing I heard when they wheeled me in was Hips Don't Lie. I'm sure he turned it off as soon as I was under but it was nice of him to try and make me comfortable considering how scary surgery can be.

All of them, including the doctors signed a 'Get Well Soon' card for my brother and we stuck it on our fridge once we got home. You guys are the real MVPs because my brother did get a little fussy before surgery because he was nervous and the nurses were so accommodating.

As soon as the doctor opened me up he and the whole room were shocked because the fybroid they were worried about was bigger than expected it weighed 5 LBS and looked like the head. He said it was the biggest fybroid he's ever removed. Coming out of surgery was scary but all and all I don't regret it. My recovery has been amazing

I have woken up during surgery and TBH it's not really scary or anything. Like I think people are scared by the idea of it because they don't know what to expect and media hypes it up. The area gets a local anesthetic too, typically, and it's not like you can see it without trying [possible exceptions being if they have to get your intestines out of the way by hanging them, but then there's usually fabric hung between you and the operation].... and they stop you... like if you try to like lift your head enough to look they get all uppity about it and make you lay still. I mean like I can feel them moving and pulling stuff, but most people don't have that much sensation when they have local anesthetic. If they notice you're awake they'll check your coherence and your blood oxygen levels and then adjust things to get you to go back to sleep. Not actually scary. Don't put off surgery you need just because of that.

sunny , I really think a large part of that is that people expect the surgery to go wrong for some reason, despite that most surgeries are performed thousands of times a day with little incident and that there are so many protocols to keep people safe, or to get your back if something goes wrong. All surgery has risks, but a lot of it is media hype and the way we glorify those one off situations and then dramatify them for reality TV. It hurts real people, and keeps them from getting help that they need, all that hype. Your first surgery will always be a scary thing, but it shouldn't be because of this expectation of disaster reinforced by media. Hype kills.

I think it is really good that you talk about subjects like this and want to thank you for it. I’m 16 years old about to be 17 but a few days before easter I had an emergency surgery on my eye after a field hockey accident. I remember that I was so calm yet so scared because it happened only a few hours after the accident. Through youtubers talking about surgeries and the frights of Anastasia I’m learning bit by bit to accept what happened and to accept my loss of vision, I can only see 30% of what I saw without a correction lens. I’ve been looking up to you ladies for a while now and it feels reassuring to know that even people I look up to aren’t perfect and can know what I’ve been going through. Thank you, Love, Jitske

Just know that there are people that totally know where you've been. Just out of left field, something took something from them. I personally went to therapy for it, and don't feel ashamed if you have to talk it out. I have come to learn it's a concept of grieving what you expected for your life. You expected to have what already had. In my case, I was a fully, emotionally functioning adult. Today? I am cheered on for taking walks to a subway maybe an hour away. But I didn't think I'd be here. And that's what I'm greiving. The loss of wanting to go to college or doing something I can't do now. Just know it's completely normal. I wish you all the best of luck! ♡♡♡

hanna meier - it’s kinda like that here too, we just pay through our high taxes... and our taxes are outrageously high compared to other comparable countries.... but for our taxes we get healthcare, school from kindergarten to uni, with pay from 18 years old, we get a bunch of other things too ( like roads and stuff) but those two are the once that really makes living here great.... We have laws that say we MUST attend school, and even though we have our free public school system there are Privat schools, just like there are private hospitals.... And even though we have free healthcare, there are rules in place, so things like elective surgery we have to pay for ourselves.... there has to be a medical reason for surgery ;) So free - yeah... but the state keeps about 40% of our paycheck.... 60 if you have a very high income..... so not so free really....

I had a surgery on my left breast and God knows how uncomfortable it is when you give your body to stangers and they do something with it that you can’t control while you’re unconscious. And it feels extra weird when you’re young, inexperienced and wanted to "save" intimacy for someone special. I know of course that it’s not a real intimacy and that it's all professional. They are saving you life but still, they are strangers and do stuff with a private area of your body. At least that's how i felt...

I have since had 1 additional eye surgery on ky seeing eye and 1 abdominal surgery. The scariest surgery for me was the surgery to correct the issue that was treated by surgery... i walked in being able to drive and walked out legally blind during the original surgery.. so the surgery to redo that surgery that failed was the scariest for me. The oddest surgeries were the eye surgeries being totally awake.. hearing the surgeons music, hearing them talk, and hearing the tools.

I had surgery at the end of May. A retinal detatchment with fluid on the eye. All done under local anasthetic. It's super scary not being able to see and knowing that someone is poking about the back of your eye with needles and lazers and stitches. Had three days in hospital plus three weeks of posturing (lying down on one side and only being able to move ten mins in an hour) with an extra lazer session to seal more holes in the retina. It wasnt particularly enjoyable but it saved my sight. Genuinely greatful for those in the profession not only he surgeons but also the nurses etc that provide after care. They were the ones dealing with my stress puking and anxiety and upsets.

When I went under “surgery,” they asked if I wanted a blanket, I said yes, and after the warmth enveloped me, I giggled and knocked out. Those nurses and the surgeon were super nice throughout the whole process. Great experience.

My mom got a mastectomy the other day and I showed her this video before to calm her fears. It made her feel a lot better and even joked afterward asking if she “still had an ovary” and agreeing with Chantel about how much she wanted to go back to sleep. Thanks guys for helping out my mom!

Put word out to friends and family that you are looking for a baby. We met a lady at church who was newly converted and faced a dilemma in which she had gotten pregnant and didn't want it. She saw my family and said "I wish my baby could grow up in a home like yours" and my mom said "I'll take it". We were all excited but unfortunately she miscarried a couple weeks later. But I knew someone that got 2 babies like that. People get pregnant by accident and it turns into a Juno situation.

i remember waking during surgery because i was having chills and seizures then remembered how the nurses were frantically trying to turn off the a/c just to make it stop and so an older nurse told me he had a daughter and just tried to soothe/calm me down whilst wiping my tears and told me stories like even tho i dont know his name, im just really thankful. i also remember just crying and laughing when in pain and feeling like i could do any sht after it 🤷♀️ anyways, to y'all going on surgery, it's scary yes but you're gonna come out stronger and braver after all the pain. trust me ✋ good luck!

I remember having a minor surgery when I was 11, I have a chronic illness and to get my medicine I had to have something called a port (they inject the medicine through there) and being absolutely terrified and overwhelmed. The worst part was that the initial surgery went well, but a few months later there were complications and I had to go in for ANOTHER surgery which had a lot more risk. It sucked, no child/teen should ever have to go through that; it’s not fair.

when Kristin talked about the anesthesiologist asking her where she wanted to go it reminded me of the time my mom had to get a surgery and the doctors asked her about what kind of music she liked. so during the surgery they played whatever artist she asked them to and was calm the whole time (of course they still put her under). I think it’s important that surgeons do that to make their patients as comfortable as possible.

When I broke my arm when I was nine they also put me to sleep, idk why tho 'cause I heard from a lot of people that they did it when they were awake. Apperently when the doctor started warning my mom about me doing something while sleeping my legs flew up xD After I woke up I was the most annoying person ever. "I'm fine, Let's go home." "No really, I feel great. Let me go home." "I don't have any pain, I wanna go home." After an hour they were so annoyed by me (I mean my parents) that they went up to the doctor and were like "can my daughter go home, she constantly says she's fine and wants to go home" .....They let me go... xD

No lie. Totally needed this video. I’ve had plenty of surgeries and am having my (hopefully) final one in about a month. But I put off this surgery for so long (two years) after knowing I needed it for a better life. I actually did wake up during a surgery once. I didn’t remember any of it but the surgeon told me I did after the fact. Scary stuff.

I love the timing of this video! I am 19 years old and I had jaw surgery 4 weeks ago and I’m still in the “recovery process” meaning my jaw is still wired/banded shut. I have 1 more week left on this liquid diet with my mouth shut, but I’m grateful because it was originally going to be a 6 week long process. It was a scary surgery but I needed it done and I’m glad that I went through with it.

I’m gonna talk about my sisters crazy surgery cause I’ve never had surgery so this was super crazy and my sister kept vomiting and couldn’t even stand. So everyone assumed her appendix was gonna explode. So they went to the emergency room and it turned out HER OVARIES TWISTED. A cyst was growing on it cause too many hormones idk and it caused her ovaries to twist. (This is super rare, FOR A 12 YR OLD) and if they had came later my sister would have lost her ovaries and not being able to have children. She has recovered and now she’s back to normal!

I had my tonsils out at the age of 26 after having years and years of problems with them, but my doctor wouldn't recommend it unless I had 3 instances in a single year ( I had problems every 6months). Finally after having an 2 abscesses, and mono (which caused my tonsils to swell so that the tonsils touched) in the same year they ok'd it. However, they didn't really want to let me bc 26 is really old to get them taken out. After I was referred to the doctor who would be doing my surgery, I was once again questioned as to wether I was sure I wanted them removed. I told them yes, bc it's really becoming a problem. I was mostly calm about it, and then a news story about a little girl who died from the exact same surgery came out. I was understanding that sometimes things happen, but I knew if I didn't get it taken care of now, I never would. My mom on the other hand was extremely nervous. When I went into surgery, I remember laying down, and as soon as they started the drip I was out. I woke up and sat up, and the nurse that was there walked (yes I walked) me back to the room where my mom was waiting. I then waited until they would let me go, and then they wheeled me out to the entrance. After we got in my mom's van, she and I picked up my brother. She asked if I was up to do anything. I told her I wanted to eat at Noodles & Co. ( I'd never been there) So just an hour and a half after I had my tonsils out I'm eating mac n cheese. The worst part ended up being the after effects of the anesthesia, but I don't regret it one bit. Sorry for the long comment!
