I Might As Well Just Live There!
March 29, 2006
As mostly everyone who reads this blog knows, my doctors appointment was today. It was a long day of waiting, and when Dr. W finally came to see me, his face lit up because I was smiling. Want to know why I was smiling? Because I was telling a funny farting joke to my mom, haha oh well, we shall keep that secret from him. Usually whenever he sees me, I’m not smiling. So this was like a treat for him.
Anyway, it seems all is good. The doctors gave us some tips on how to slowly wean off the heavy duty pain killers I still sorta am on. They also took out the stitches in my finger… ouch, that was the first time I ever had the kind that don’t disapear on their own. I also talked to my doctors about a few more bone growths that are causing me discomfort and pain… and I am having another surgery sometime this spring. Mom thought it would make more sense to screw up just one term instead of two, and it does make sense but holy crap, I should just live there. I really hope I can still get all my credits! If I do terribly in English and Anthro, then I don’t get into the Writers Craft class that I was so looking forward too.
Also, I learned something else about MHE that I didn’t know before. It has to be watched because some of the bone tumors can become cancerous. It’s what they call low key cancer and a low risk, but still. “Low risks” usually aren’t that low for me. And I really don’t want to switch doctors and hospitals next year…I’m comfortable there.
I have no idea how I’m going to pull of graduating with my friends, I’m already so far behind as it is and that other surgery is going to make things worse. It’ll be on both knees so I’ll have trouble with crutches. Past experience has taught me that it’s most certainly easier to operate crutches using the help of one leg, and I will not use a wheelchair. Besides, I would have a hard time using a wheelchair at my school anyway.
I’ve been trying to update this blog since yesterday but everytime that I get it started, I get kicked off the computer. Kathrynn has been trying to “finish” her homework and Microsoft Word has a virus (thanks to her downloading music) and doesn’t work properly, so she sits there all night trying to open the file, and no one else gets to use the computer.
