Not a good week... Hospital, floods, and even a car on fire
In case you have not heard on FB and Twitter I have had a pretty shitty week this past week. Last Friday I found out I need surgery. They are taking out part of my large intestine and later replacing it with something called a J pouch. This is because of my colitis. All of the meds and the last hospitalization has not helped so this is the last resort. Iv been trying to have a positive attitude about it but I'm still scared as hell. I'll be having the surgery Tuesday at 1pm. I'll be in the hospital at least a week. And it's Dekalb Medical if you want to visit. I'll post later what room.
Anyway because if this news and generally not feeling well we did not go to DCon. Then on Monday Jason's grandfather went into the hospital with symptoms of a stroke. Later found out TUESDAY NIGHT that it was just a sever UTI. then Wednesday I walked in our living room to find the floor wet and found we had a leak in our walls. Some of our really expensive books (that wouldn't fit on shelves) were also on the floor and got really bad water damage. Good news we fixed the leak but it took several days to dry.
Then on Thursday I went ti the hospital for pre-op work and my car died at the hospital. I had to get a security guy to give me a jump so I could go to work. I made it to work and my car died. My dad has spent friday to today working on it trying to get it out of my works parking lot. After changing the battery, battery terminals, the starter motor, and the O rings it was still running fast, but running. So he wanted to get it to his house so he could work on it more but... It caught fire. Yep my car caught fire in the middle of the road of Lake Lucern and Five Forks Trickum road. Oddly enough though the books i had in my trunk were totally fine along with my favorite pair of glasses (which were in the front of the car). To make matters worse we did not have coverage for the fire so we get nothing at all for my car. Not a good end to the week.
So yeah. After all this I am really hopping that my surgery will go wonderfully and the recovery fast. Also I really would love for the drama to stop. I really need rest. I'm still happy to have Jason to help me through this and I am thankful to have friends and family to help me too. Like I said I'll post later what room I'm in at the hospital and I don't mind company. So here is to a better week and well rest of the year.
