Ouch
There’s this molar. The one all the way in the back, lower left. It’s been a little finicky for a while. You know. A little sensitive to heat and cold. Some days more than others. I knew that I’d have to get it taken care of before too long, but as such things go, I […]
Egads. If there were any doubt—which there wasn’t—my ovaries are still producing hormones quite well, thank you very much. I’ve heard that sometimes after a uterus is removed, the ovaries, even when left in like mine were, quickly give up the ghost. Not so, mine. They’re still working quite fine.
Gads.
I’ve been in an increasingly […]
I had my six week checkup with my doctor last week, the day after Dave and I got home. In spite of everything that’s been happening, she is very pleased with my healing progress. And wants me to start exercising. Exer-who? Yes. Ugly word that. I’m now to walk for thirty minutes each day, a […]
I’ve started this post several times, and, as you can tell, haven’t managed to finish it yet. I’m really quite good at not thinking of unpleasant things, just put them out of my mind. I know it’s not always good to do that, but there ya go. I do it. I have a feeling this […]
Every day I’m feeling a little better than the day before. I’ve been knitting again for about five days, and it’s wonderful. I’ve nearly finished up my Pomatomus socks (photo pending). I need to try them on properly. I did a different toe treatment on each sock, and will need to decide which I like […]
I’m sitting. In my desk chair. I’ve been here for fifteen minutes. Wheee! LOL Amazing how good it feels to be able to sit properly again. I’m about to move, though. Still can’t do it for very long, but I’m so much better than a week ago, it’s astounding to me. Checkup with my doctor […]
I am recovering, a little better each day. I can almost sort of sit in a regular chair again. It’s ever so much better than trying to stand here and read email and type at an awkward angle. LOL My two-week appointment with my doctor is on Thursday. Can’t believe it’s been a week and […]
I’ve been trying not to think about tomorrow all day. Don’t like to. But people keep calling. Mom, friends, the hospital. It’s wonderful. I love hearing from everyone (well, maybe not the hospital). But still. I’m so looking forward to tomorrow being done with. Yes, Nicki, by this time tomorrow the deed will be done, […]
In some ways I want today to drag out, last forever, to put off tomorrow getting here.
In some ways I want it to go quickly so that tomorrow will come sooner, and I’ll be able to get it over with that much sooner.
In some ways I’m glad I have no ability to change the movement […]
Thank you all so very much for your kind and sympathetic messages. It helps a lot to know you’re all out there. Web friends are awesome.
Since a couple of you asked, I’m expected at the hospital on Wednesday, May 3, at 7 a.m., and the surgery is scheduled to start at 9 a.m. Pacific […]
