I don't know if I should be thankful to medicine in general that I'm still alive or horrified at the lengths at which they end up taking to keep people alive, or peeved at the mistakes that are made during these processes that require a double (triple in my case) of the same surgery?
either way I'm exhausted
Not the best time for surgery, having been septic most of last month, but have no choice. With a constant source of infection now I'll never heal without the surgery. Never been this weak. Never! Still pondering why I was sent home from hospital so anemic that I need a blood transfusion? Glad I fired those people and will be at a competent hospital for surgery. Talking aloud now.Just wanted u guys to know if I don't come back by football season to give Tibs and Chtulhu shit.. that's probably what's up.
I see each and every one of you in my daily life. From Whateverist in the gardens I run across online or out my window-- to thumpers in classical guitar praces to cool science shit that Steel ad Poca and and all the other science fiends might like. I see Ivy in the red sunsets, the ones like margaritas that are the same red color of her lipstick, and i hear her and all the smart ladies on this site whose collective voices yell with me in my imagination when I read about LGBT rights and or international affairs fueled by religion. When chaplains enter my room and try to hold my hand despite my succinct request that they dont, I definitely hear Min's "blow it out your ass" key phrase.
I guess I'm thankful that even though I come and go, you're still here. The forum. In all its glory, good or bad, getting along or not--we are all tied here as one big community. I'm proud to be part of this community, and I certainly expect to see you all again after surgery. Peace.
Be well, Luckie -- may you enjoy a full and fast recovery.
