Rafterman, may I ask you what type of work you do? Or did do? ( retired medical professional of what discipline )
I might have missed it, if so sorry.
It is early and I got thru most of your post but not all just now.
Are you a doctor, psychologist etc. ? counselor maybe. before retiring.
I guess you do know that it is hard to hear such heavy life advice from someone so close , "usually ".
Although I may have missed some but it kind of sounds like she did not want to do what you advised, it that it ?
She is an RN of 30 years then she will have certain knowledge as well pertinent to her situation, how do you receive hers?
Or has she said?
So many unknown factors in this as you say.
But ur bottom line is that getting optional surgery needs to be well one needs to have done their due diligence ? Right.
anyway....just rambling
