I'm sorry you had to go through that. That sounds terrible. I just looked it up and it said they do that when they need access to a large vein. Yes, I would think they should have to be careful of that area because your vocal cords are right there, your thyroid is right there, the trachea. . . there's all kinds of stuff right in that area that they could mess up if they did it wrong.
I hope you sleep well.

I think everyone else has already gone to bed, so I'm probably going to go as well. I'll be around tomorrow, but probably not too early.
I'll be here later in the day and I'll bring the rum. Goodnight everyone. I hope everyone sleeps well.
