The only problems I have now are the fact that since they operated through my nose, I cannot breathe at all with my nose, which forces me to breathe through my mouth only causing severe dry throat. Occasionally the blood will go down my throat too, which hinders my sleep at night as I wake up every 30-45 minutes to either drink water or cough up blood. Doctor is not allowing me to go back to work OR school, which is the sad part since I planned on graduating with my B.S. this semester. Health is better anyways. I like to thank you all for your prayers and kind words. I cannot thank you guys enough for keeping me in your prayers.
Am I in Heaven? I awoke to an angel! ;D My GF is also a nursing student and this gave her an opportunity to take care of me during my 2 night stay at the hospital
Even my little brother came by and signed my poster. He goes to school at UCLA which is walking distance from UCLA Medical Center
Lastly, today I went fishing. I know I'm not supposed to but some rules had to be broken i.e. driving and activities that need you to bend down and lift. Maybe I should listen because sometimes I still feel sluggish.

Glad to hear you got through your surgery and are doing well. I don't condone the fishing against doctor's orders, but I definitely understand that sometimes the draw is too great. Especially when you catch lunkers like that!
ReplyDeleteStay well and rest up. We all look forward to your adventures this summer.
Glad to hear it went well! Get rested for the spring fishing season
ReplyDeleteGood News Ariel, I'm glad you're OK. You were lucky my friend, when I had my brain surgery they took off the top of my skull, removed 90% of my tumor and then put my lid back on after radiating it first. I literally have a titanium screw still there they used to make sure it stayed in place until the bone could grow back together. I know, sounds morbid, but it worked and I'm still here kickin and fishin. Take care....I know, I need to update my fishing blog too. I'm still thinking about what to write about that others will find informative and interesting. Tight Lines Ariel.
ReplyDeleteWell I'm glad you're okay now David. They also found a cyst inside my brain that needs monitoring yearly. I might be in your boat if it grows. Complete different type of surgery. I hope mine doesn't grow.
