katie vs. the headwrap


Just got surgery on my ear yesterday.

I had an industrial piercing, and my ear ended up rejecting it creating more scar tissues & such. It was a lengthy procedure. I was there from 6am until 3pm. I had to go back to the doctor today and again tomorrow morning. My head has been throbbing since the initial drugs at the hospital wore off, because they only gave me Tylenol 3 (like that is going to cure any pain.) When I woke up in the hospital and felt my head there was this enormous head wrap. My mother said I looked like a half amputated mickey mouse. Anyway, I was too sore and groggy to go to class or counseling today. I am really upset about this. I had thought it was going to be a simple in-office procedure like earlier visits, but this was full-blown surgery. I just have enough other things going on in my life that are distracting me from school. I don't need anymore. There is too much for my to deal with right now.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH PROBLEMS!!

I have also decided I want to write one thing I am grateful for every post.

Grateful #1:
I am extremely grateful for all of the time I got to share with my cousin,
Tony, before the tragedy. He honestly was the person I knew better than
anybody, and there is definitely no one I had spent more time with. He
will always be my brother & my best friend,
but I know some people aren't as
lucky as I was when it come to sharing Tony's life with him. I am thankful
for Tony's life every day,
and I am grateful for everything he has taught me
over the years & continues to teach me after he has left us.
I love you with all of my heart, Tony, &
I miss you more than I could ever express.
You are my rock & my hero.
Thank-you for
everything.
