The first problem was how do I tell my mom about my hernia?
She doesn't know I have it , and it's awkward to speak to her about it ...
My doctor said that it will be an "open" surgery, that they sliced me open (near my groin), patched up the hole in my abdominal wall and sewed me belly up.
The alternative is "laparoscopic" surgery whereby they make one or two small incisions, go in with a camera on a flexible stick and patch the hole using surgical instruments.
