The resulting injury required surgery, which she revealed wasn\u2019t a guaranteed success:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBefore I went into surgery, they made me sign something that said, \u2018We don\u2019t know until we get in there and see this leg, and it could come out that you don\u2019t have it anymore.\u2019 That wasn\u2019t the case, obviously, but I had to sign something that said, \u2018OK, you can.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Can you IMAGINE having to sign that paperwork before going under for surgery??
