I hope your surgery goes well and you are back on your feet as soon as possible.
Mine were removed by the US Army and they didn't offer the "knockout gas" option. I remember all four of mine (two per sitting) quite vividly.
Of course they were kind enough to hit me with enough Novocaine to numb an elephant.
I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear
