Life saving Open-Heart Surgery could be the cause to my medical hell?
The past 24 hours had me thinking. It started when I was in the North and my ribs were killing me. It was hurting so much, breathing was just brutal. Then I thought back to a conversation I had not too long ago with my mom. When I was 4 years old I underwent a…
