Back Again
08.19.08 (12:00 pm) [edit]
But does anyone care?I'm still recovering from the revision of the revision of the reconstruction. I developed an allergy to all of the adhesives they used to tape me back together. Blisters formed under all of the tapes and when I removed it, the tape took the top of the blisters off. I've now discovered a new type of pain. It was actually more painful than the surgery itself. I'm better now, back at work, but you can still see the marks on my face and chest. Now the wounds themselves are the source of my pain.
Meanwhile, back in Crazy Land, accounting department still under siege. Bags and Superhighway furious. Owner even more furious. Golf Pro has been assigned new tasks. He's supposed to be writing reports of some kind. Even Superhighway doesn't have the full story on that. Or she's not sharing it. The latter option seems unlikely, though.
I'd planned to have a little thank-you party for Crazy Land staff to celebrate the final surgery. Everyone offered support and caring during my 3-year journey and I'm grateful. However, since hardly anyone is speaking to anyone else, I don't think it would be much fun. Verbal interaction seems limited to rage attacks. No cake for Crazy Land.
Next week, I'll be in Houston again. I have annual tests scheduled, one of which is with the beloved Dr. Ross. Thursday starts at 7:00 with blood work and ends in the evening. I'm mired in my usual anxiety. Nonetheless, it's better than Crazy Land.
When I've regained more of my energy and concentration levels, I'll fill you in on Crazy Land.

:O - That hurts just reading about it!
- So no 'let them eat cake" - but it sounds like the folks in crazy land could use a few pies in their faces though! ;)

I am so glad that you are back and yes we do care, I am so sorry to hear about your problems with the tape and the pain, hope that it all heals well and you are feeling great soon.
Crazyland sounds crazier then ever, maybe cake might sweeten their disposition a little when they remember why they are eating it in the first place and the ordeal that you have been through. selfish people, everyone is so wrapped up in themselves.

Glad to hear your surgery went well, hope the allergic reaction has cleared up now. We care that you're back, we missed you.
I think you should by a cake and celebrate. It could be the cake that made everything ok again.
