Unanticipated complications of vasectomy reversal
Yesterday we encountered a surprising complication of the vasectomy reversal surgery. Because Rich’s activity level is restricted for the 30 days following surgery, I have taken over chores that he usually does around the house. This includes splitting kindling, since our wood stove is our primary source of heat. We are either going to buy kindling or be cold for the rest of the winter, because I almost chopped off the tip of my left thumb! Ok, I’m exaggerating (I’m tired of him getting all the sympathy) but I did smash it pretty good. Looks like I’m going to lose a nail. Small price to pay if we are able to conceive.

This is funny! Doctors should be required to list this type of thing on their post-care and possible complications warnings.
Silly woman - don’t you realize that men’s medical procedures are ALWAYS much more traumatic than women’s? A missing digit would be nothing - a small price to pay compared to what he has undergone in getting ‘the boys’ operated on.
