Surgery tomorrow!
9 years ago
Hey guys!
I know a lot of you have been following my medical saga to some extent, but just wanted to give a heads up that I will be going in for the hysterectomy/oophorectomy tomorrow. Expected time to heal up afterwards is 1.5-2 weeks, and full recovery is more like 6 months to a year. So I may not be around much for the next couple weeks at the very least. Unless there are complications, I'll be going home the same day, so no hospital stay. It's all being done laparoscopically, and I'll have four more scars on my stomach when all is said and done.
My recovery room is prepped, I have a huge stash of easy-prep post surgery food, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Sling TV, and access to
blaez's ginormous collection of movies, as well as new (to me) books from a local book sale plus a new Star Wars book from
tempestuous, a coloring book my mom sent, and a stack of puzzle books from
vincinicolaides. I even have a stuffed uterus pillow from
perdikitti. XD Picked up a new iPad Pro to replace my older iPad mini, and a keyboard case for that, so I'll have decent internet access without having to get up and go to my computer. I'll probably be sleeping a lot, though, if it's anything like last time. Lots of frozen meals prepped for
nius, and everything's set for the cats. I just have a couple more things to do today, and that's about as much prep as I can manage.
I'm just really, REALLY looking forward to getting this over with. x.x

Least you have Netflix, can't afford it, but I do have a DVD collection from hell as well, around 1500 DVDs .
You do realise you need to do revenge art on you attacking your uterus and winning.
Damn heat wave messing up mah computer...
I'll be keeping you in my thoughts over the next few days for sure.
