Maybe we need to visualize surgery different. I used to think about it like replacing a part in a car. Why not just do it if the part is not working too well.
Maybe we should see it as damage. It’s like someone attacking you with a knife. Except that the intention is completely different, they know what they are doing, their implements are far more precise and so on, so the parallel is not very good either, I am just saying that “recovering from an appendicitis” could be at least visualized as something closer to “recovering after a nasty knife fight” than to “just had the clutch in my car replaced”.

What do you think?
Why do you think we need to do so?
