Oh man, wishing you the best of luck with the surgery if you haven't gotten it yet, Randy!

Also, we need some more Don Ritchies in the world.

Thanks, Sandra! Unfortunately, it's been pushed back. So a few more weeks of stressing myself out about it. 😅

And yes, we most certainly do!

Wishing you the best! I appreciate the vulnerability. It’s amazing to see how fearless children are. Makes me want to access that part of me too.

Thank you, Michelle! Yes, if we could all just have a part of us that remained a child forever.

What an amazing privilege to have this four-year-old role-model living in your own home. Sounds like you're already growing up. Sending you all the best.

I've never been put under in my life for the same reasons and fears that you describe. I'll hope you'll share the victory on the other side of it. And thanks for sharing the story of Don Ritchie. Showed it to the whole family and were all moved by his story.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Usually, when people find out how terrified I am of it, they're like, “what's the big deal,” lol. To me, it's like the worst thing possible. And yes, Don Ritchie’s story is def inspiring.
