I have on a disguise today that would scare anyone... Just too late for Halloween.
Cancer Free
I had my 'procedure' this morning. They removed the tumor and I have a 99% chance of a complete recovery. It was so weird, I can't imagine having brain surgery and being awake. They numbed the area on my head where the tumor was, and prodded, sliced, pulled, pushed, squeezed, burned and stitched. I couldn't feel a thing except for some pressure and some pulling. At one point I said to the doctor that I could only image what they were doing, and he said to think of something else. They cauterized the blood vessels which sounded like they were creating the Frankenstein monster. I was afraid that the doctor would stand back and yell 'It Lives!'! So now I have to wear a pressure bandage on my head, a wad of gauze over the wound with bandages wrapped around my head. What a site! I look like a bell boy with my little beanie on. It so annoying, it's difficult to eat, talk, I can't really talk on the phone as the bandages cover my ears. I have to be this way for 24 hours, so I'm glad I didn't make any plans for today. I have stitches, but I won't have a bald spot. I was worried about that. I don't need anything else weird about me!
Bridal Shower
I went to a bridal shower yesterday. That was the first shower I've attended in probably 20 years. My friends don't get married much any more. I went with some other women who felt the same way I did, if they start playing stupid 'shower games' we were going to the nearest bar. But my fears were unfounded. We went thru some nice food, the champagne punch, a bottle of wine and some beers. I left at 6:30-ish and there were still people there. The party was crashed by 2 guys, but they came after most of the guests left, so I guess that was OK. All in all, it was a fun day.
Thanks
Thanks to everyone who've called and sent messages. I didn't post on Friday as I worked early, and I probably won't post this Friday as I work at 7AM. I can't get up any earlier just to post on my blog. Yes, I know, y'all are disappointed, but I'm sorry. I can only do so much. :-)
More to come...
As things happen, I'll be posting. Thanks for taking the time to read. You're opinions are welcome but if you have to start calling me names, don't bother, I won't read them. As my Dad says 'Opinions are like a**holes, everyone has one.'
