“My last (child) was six months at that time and then we kept on saying, ‘Okay, we have to understand that this is the new us, let’s go get the surgery done’. And then we got there they said I was going to be on medication for the rest of my life and it was a reality that we had to sit down.
“You know, they’re giving me timing and telling me, “You can’t miss your medication. Once you wake up that day, that’s the first thing (I will take)’. They told me all of the side effects.” Punch
