I'm encouraged by your continuing your writing journey, Diane! Keep up the good work.

Although (as mentioned to you several times) my troubles have not been like yours, like me you have been motivated to dig and delve into your complex story and we have each learnt so much that we want to share.

In this post you have briefly mentioned again the circumstances around your and my harrowing pyloric stenosis surgery, probably without any or enough pain relief. I'm glad for you that unlike me you were able to learn some of the core details. We can only wonder and guess how much that has fed into the challenges we've had. I'm glad that your, my, and others' explorations are at last being published, and we are of course keen for this to continue. We have become increasingly aware that there will be countless others born before the 1990s who will have been privately and to them mysteriously affected by the mantras of the medical world.
