Surgery Is My Friend

Apr 22, 2009 21:50

Hi all.

So tomorrow (Thurs. 4-23) at around 11, I am checking in for surgery. I will have an endoscopic procedure to correct a diverticulum in my esophagus. This is going to be a huge relief for me, as this thing has been making eating uncomfortable, and disrupting my sleep badly.

They will keep me overnight, and then send my home Fri. evening. I should be loopy as all get out for a few days, and will be on liquids for a few days, with unknown degrees of overlap.

Then, there will be soft food, and pain killers, and decreasing loopiness and increasing dietary freedom. And sleep, precious un-interrupted sleep.

Look forward to having this done with, and being more of a protagonist in my life, as opposed to a Ingmar Bergman cinematographer, which is what I start to feel like after a long stretch of bad sleep.

See… the tree… the gentle winds... clouds... see?

Hugs to you all!
