The Guggie Daily: Confessions of a Circumcised Baby
A story of a boy's birth and circumcision, as told through the eyes of the baby boy. A moving first person account of birth and circumcision. "While my mind may never be able to reflect clearly on the surgery, somewhere within my memories it exists. It's too pivotal not to remain.

And it was unnecessary, because you created me perfectly inside you. There were no alterations needed.”

But one has done just that. While being found not guilty of sexual assault against mostly teenage patients (hats off to those lawyers!), he has been found unfit to practice medicine.
The now former Dr. Bracka once co-authored a paper detailing a method of circumcision requiring the victim to be fully erect during the procedure.
