All Finished

And Cancer free. Thank goodness. I feel pretty worn out though. I don't know what med they give you, but I am just exhausted and my incision is starting to smart pretty bad.

I have to say this was the best treatment. The anesthesia dept, surgery department, same day, they were all just great. They gave me some la la med and while she was cutting away the cancer, I was having the most pleasant dream. In fact its the first thing I said. What a wonderful dream.

They had me wiggle my eyebrows, they both work, and my mouth, works, so they didn't hit a nerve. I told her the only thing is I can barely hear out of my right ear. They looked and it was full of blood. They cleaned it up as good as they could and when I got home I irrigated it and got out a big blood clot. Now I can hear again, LOL. They should put a ear plug or something in. And I have steri strips, no sutures.

So the cancer is gone, hopefully not to come back. I will get checked every 3 months for 2 years it sounds like and then just yearly. And we found a spot on Ricks back that looks like it should come off.

Well, I am pretty miserable. Hope Rick gets here soon with the pain med. Hope it works. Thanks so all the prayers. I am convinced they worked.
