Healing
Oh man having so many days off screws my internal clock up big time. But I went in last Thursday to remove the rest of the tumor and surrounding tissue. The surgeon said everything went great and that the tumor appears to be successfully removed. He did however have to make a much larger and deeper incision then he planned on...which finally being able to remove the bandage today I got to see first hand.
The cut is not three inches as he originally planned but just a pinch of four inches and I don't even want to think how deep he had to go. All I know now is it hurts like the dickens to sit down and removing the bandage irritated the crud out of the extraction point and had me break down into tears from the pain.
I'm hoping I will be healed up enough to start driving again come this Wednesday though....but we'll see. Just riding in the car had me whimpering and struggling not to cry. I just want to get back into my normal routine again and get out there and heal up. This laying around all day is just not me...plus it won't pay the bills or put money into the apartment fund lol.
I can't say I've been up to much else. The pain killers pretty much keep me in a doped up state so I fall asleep constantly right now. Maybe tomorrow as I try to sit and stretch and try to get my body used to sitting I'll be able to draw at least a bit.
But I pray I don't have to worry about another tumor for a very, very long time. It has literally been a pain in the ass lol.
