Tamara, go with your gut. That’s what I’m doing. I don’t want to go back into that world again.

I'm questing if I want to go through that or not as I'm thinking about the recovery time it's going to feel hard as I have a mom that usually depend on for transportation and she is not in the greatest health. Part of me just wants my VNS battery changed
