Well, I Survived!

Yep, that’s right, I made it through surgery. Wow, that sounds so dramatic, doesn’t it? But it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be. They put me under “conscious sedation”—which means that you’re generally awake, but in “la la land.” I gotta tell you, it wasn’t half-bad! I was gonna ask them if I could take some of that stuff home with me afterwards!

And today, I’m recovering nicely. Just tired and in some pain, but they gave me some good drugs for that, too! I’ll tell ya’, going for surgery would be an addict’s dream!

So overall, I’m doing pretty well today, and VERY relieved it’s over. Thank you to everyone for your positive thoughts and well-wishes. They really did help!

Now—sigh—I have to go take more drugs. If ya’ gotta, ya’ gotta.

Yay! Glad to hear you survived and on the road to recovery.
Yeah those drugs are good...I went under for wisdom teeth and remember saying to the dentist...I gotta get me some of this...
