Thursday, September 10, 2009 | A General Update story

 I actually had posted this first, but after trouble occurred on my post, I had it closed. I just decided now to copy it to here for those that did not get a chance to see it.

 

Update: I have been told that the cancer was all removed. A tumour had been removed as well outside my uterus. I did not want to mention it for fear of frightening certain friends. However, after speaking to a friend, I realize that they deserve to know. I am ok. The Dr. removed it all. Now we just have to pray and have faith I will be OK and get better...

 

 

Here is the original post. 

 

 

Well... I had my surgery (hysterectomy) for cancer issues, and it has been the worst experience I've ever had. I had a few complications occur which caused me a lot of pain, and kept me off the computer. (it is very painful for me to even sit up)

First... I was sent home after only 4 days (normal procedure)... with no wheel chair to take me to the social workers car (not normal procedure). She was pissed off no wheel chair was provided, and wrote it in her report. I was on the 4th floor of the hospital, so it was a nightmare getting to the car. Then the area became infected, and I have had several hemetoma (spelling?) burst on me. (very messy and painful)

Then only 2 days after returning home, a growth burst through my incision and required surgery to be removed.

Add to that the fact that I am a very slow healer, and caught a cold recently... and you see the nightmare I am dealing with. (it hurts to cough)

Anyway... this is why I have avoided the computer. It is just too painful to sit up at it for long.

I wanted to let you all know how I am doing tho, so took the time and effort to write this for those who care and were wondering about me.


I miss you all.

    I just wish people would stop spreading malice about me, and calling me a liar. They have no clue what I have gone through... yet are so mean to me... and they call themselves Christian? No real Christian I know, would ever behave the way they are... It is all just so sad.
    Maybe I should journal these thoughts separately.
