’tis done

Hello you all,

it’s nice to be back,

sitting at my desk.

Well,

I had my surgery,

two weeks ago,

yesterday,

and,

it went,

well.

You hear,

all kinds of stories,

and,

lots of people,

try to scare you,

about surgery,

and,

the healthcare system,

most people,

are supportive,

and,

tell you,

everything,

is going to be alright.

You need to listen to,

yourself,

inform,

yourself,

and,

at one point,

trust that all will be ok.

I was plenty scared,

kind of shitless,

in fact.

They called me,

the day before the surgery,

I had to get there for 3 pm,

I was real nervous,

the night before,

I didn’t really sleep,

in spite of a mild tranquillizer,

but,

the next morning,

when they came to get me,

when they wheeled,

my bed down,

the hallway,

that’s  a unique perspective for you, never experienced that form of locomotion before and it is kind of freaky, early morning quiet and time stands still sort of thing, but, with motion, impossible to explain, well for me, anyway.

and,

then passed me off,

to the operating room,

personel,

I felt calm,

I felt like I was in,

the hands,

of true and caring,

professionals,

and,

I ‘knew’ all would be well.

At no time,

did anyone treat me,

with anything but,

respect.

They respected my intelligence,

by answering my questions,

and,

never talking down to me,

they were fabulous,

before,

and,

after,

and from what I can,

surmise,

during,

as well.

I was under the influence,

of some very powerful drugs,

during the operation,

which lasted 4 hours,

if ever you are offered an epidural as an option, take it

and,

was quite complex,

they removed,

all my lady parts,

as well,

as three giant fibroids,

giant is the appropriate word.

Let me put it this way,

I dropped over twenty pounds,

from the surgery,

and uteruses and stuff,

barely weigh,

anything,

so you do the math

🙂

This is a good thing,

not only will I be healthier,

as a result,

of having these aliens,

removed,

but,

I will also be quasi svelte,

life is,

good.

I’m doing well,

you all,

I am gently walking,

the road to recovery.

Just wanted you all to know.

I was so scared,

but,

at the end of the line…

well,

it was ok.

Some people are fighting real,

life and death battles,

my thing,

wasn’t nearly that,

serious,

and,

for this I count,

myself,

lucky.

Be well.

Later girls,

BB
