Being circumcised at 11

That article literally says that it used to be a reason to recommend circumcision, and that studies/experts can go either way. Did you even read it?

That's so evil! Yeah, I remember after that bastard messes up my dad he offered to do another surgery, and my folks were like, "fuck no"!

Thanks! It can probably happen anywhere though. What's really sad is that the highly recommended surgeon to whom my father was originally referred was booked up pretty solid for a few months, so my dad chose to go with this other guy who was available immediately. My father had had an earlier surgery on his back about 20 years before when we were living in Houston, and it went off without a hitch, and I mean he was up, and walking the same day like nothing had happened.

It's been pretty heartbreaking to watch my dad like this for the past 15, or so years, and one thing he has admitted to doing wrong was that he never quit running/jogging despite the fact that he had been told to do so by the original doctor. I kinda wonder if maybe my father would not have needed further surgery if he had just listened. My dad was really into running when I was a kid, and teenager, he even used to run the Houston Marathon.

I love my father a lot, and he's been like a best friend to me throughout much of my life, but I think he's a person who is too stubborn, and doesn't always listen to expert advice when it's given to him. My dad just wants to do want he likes, and what makes him happy without thinking too much of what might happen.

My father is 84 years old now, and he is starting to have problems with his short term memory, and a kind of a brain fog. I ask him if these symptoms bother him, and he says he doesn't care, because he can no longer do what he wants to do anymore.

Anyway, that's my story, and I'm now a firm believer in researching things, reading lots of reviews and looking for the best possible recommendations. I also NEVER ignore bad reviews! I've done a review of the surgeon who practically crippled my father, and every so often I will check to make sure it's still up on the site. If my review ever gets taken down I will repost it. This isn't a very nice thing for me to say, "but I honestly hope that doctor someday needs a laminectomy, and finds a surgeon just like himself to operate on his back"! I figure if the guy was not really a terrible surgeon, and my father's condition has nothing to do with the surgery that was performed then my wishes for him might not be so bad.

Dont put too much faith in the doctors word that its ok and not harmful. These doctors will literally cut off a penis and turn it inside out to make a Frankenstein vagina at someones request. They deal with death daily in medical school they arent the most empathetic people towards pain and suffering. If they were they wouldnt be able to do the job. They deal with suffering and death all the time its just normal to them.

And also the pain killers arent going to get rid of the pain all the way im telling you hes gonna be crying and I feel you are doing it for selfish reasons. Its not in his best interest. And hes gonna hurt badly.
