Truly horrific experiments during a period of great horror.

I had to have my testicles removed (following an accident) and can empathize with these victims. I had the benefit of caring doctors and nurses and it was bad enough coming to terms with the loss of my balls, my manhood. It must have been devastating for them. I understand that some of the castrated men survived the camps. Tragic lives: destroyed innocence and robbed of the joy of sex, marriage and offspring.

My deepest sympathies to you sir..

I'm sure that the more time passes from that point in your life that things are easier and more manageable for you? You shouldn't worry so much about your love life being effected- the right person that loves you would accept that and not think it's a problem at all.

Not having your own offspring seems to be the only real concern and adoption would be such a perfect solution.. Think of all the children in the world needing loving parents..

Try to not think of all the negative consequences of your accident and learn to live strong. You've come along way and have a long way to go.

Thank you for reading my blog,
