Encee, what a bummer. You and hubby must be seriously ticked off. It has been difficult right through, hasn't it?
I don't have any personal experience but have heard a number of examples of ops being cancelled, though thats no consolation I am afraid.
Keep your pecker up, both of you. You will get there in the end.

Maybe a second opinion is worth while,
I broke my ankle and fractured my leg in 3 places many years ago and it took a long time to heal, Plaster & crutches for three months and pain for the next 6.
now if it rains i can still feel it & thats after 40 years,
Good luck,tom
