Thanks; Hejira, for the reply. Actually, I hadn't thought about it in many, many years. It was buried. I don't think I've thought of it once in the past 20 years, or longer. I read your account of what happened at age 9, and it made me remember that night in my aunt's bathroom, though your experience sounds much worse than mine. I didn't have years of pain. It all sounds horrible for you.
How I wish now that I remembered, my aunt died a few years ago. She would have been perfect to talk about it with.
Maybe I
will mention it to my shrink. I'm relieved that the problem I had was unrelated to the circumcision, for reasons too unknown (just speculative) to go into. Thanks for responding, Hejira
I always like to hear from you.
Aperfectlie, are your studies you once mentioned to become a doctor? You seem to have the makings, based on the meticulous details of diabetes you have taught yourself- I know you have the disease, but still, you seem needed as a medical professional. Many people have diseases or issues and don't have the ability to know all the ins and outs like you do, myself included. No, not diabetic, yet.
You're at university, still, correct?
