if you dont mind me asking, what kind of surgery was it that required you to catheter yourself for a full year? howd it feel to pee on your own after the year was up?

I went in for a costotransversectomy with a bilateral fusion. Was supposed to be in for only 3-5 days but because of complications was in for over 35 days. Was never able to prove malpractice but that’s definitely what it was. I went through literal hell while I was in hospital with foley caths and all types of stuff. Had my bladder almost explode because of incompetent nurses and just a bad time.
