I used to freak people out with my MRIs.
I also had no hearing for a while until they operated on my “good” ear so I bleached my hair and told everyone I was “deaf and blond”.
[weird sense of humor, here...we all “cope” differently]....:)
Your father must be a righteous man. My pastor always says there is something special about having a righteous parent/grandparent praying for you. I wish I had that.
