I’m a lead singer in a band (I perform with my sister) and we have a huge opportunity coming up on August 25th. The thing is, I stupidly took an earlier surgery date for my revision rhino without thinking... on August 5th. And now I’m stuck in a hard place because my surgeon is booked up until April next year, which I don’t want to wait that long...
