Some years ago, I was thinking it was time for that decision. No hurry, 
though, as the woman who was living with me had had her own procedure 
after her second child. Then I went with a visiting friend from Nepal to 
meet a friend of his. The friend I was with had written the first book 
on trekking in Tibet (final editing in my basement room). His friend was 
at that time the second most published photographer of the Himalayas and 
surrounding region, after Galen Rowell.

When we got to his house, instead of the anticipated meeting, we walked 
into the start of a mourning for his sudden death. That morning, he had 
walked out of a clinic after that little procedure. While standing on 
the curb, waiting for his ride, he passed out, fell, hit his head on the 
curb - and died.

Ever since, I've had an unreasoning fear of the procedure.
