i am back from the hospital. i no longer have ovaries, fallopian tubes, a cervix, nor a uterus. pretty intense.
i'm happy that they only kept me 1 night instead of two like they originally planned. my main nurse, sandy, was really nice. my night nurse, randy, was pretty good too.
one nurse...i did not appreciate. she came into my room around 8 am, kinda shady acting, took out these plastic clamps that she plans to pull the catheter out with. she fuckin clamped my dick! i yelped and and gave her a look like "what are you doing??" she says sorry then yanks out the catheter. then, to my complete surprise, there's this stuff called packing. it's this 3 metre long rough thick cloth that soaks up all of the blood. she proceeds to yank this out. fucking painful. i asked her to stop for a minute because it hurt so much. anyway, she threw all the stuff away, put my gown down, then left. hmm. she came in later to change my liquid painkiller. when she came in, jack was visiting and she announces "oh i'm just coming in to change his, i mean her bag". bleh.
dr.tregoning came into my room later on and talked to me. i felt a little better after that. he's a very nice guy. i'm to see him in 6 weeks for a check up.
my mom, jack and courtney were my visitors. jack actually stayed out in abbottsford while i was in hospital. thank you jack.
all in all, mentally happy. i am sore and fragile and a little wonky, but feel happy to be rid of these things. and a step further paper work-wise. i'm legally male now. yay!
