I was 11, and did NOT want to explain to my classmates what I did over summer vacation. Anyway, I have had 2 or 3 surgeries now, and have an almost identical scar. Not the same ailment, but you can read about mine (if you want) on my blog entitled "That's not what I'd call it" I'm gonna follow you just because I feel a real kinship with you now!
