Well gang - tomorrow is the day! I am the first surgery for my doctor on Friday. I have to be at the hospital at 05:45 and the surgery is at 07:00. Mom is taking me there. I will be in the hospital until Sunday. I had to take a prep class and they said if I had my surgery in the morning, they would have me up walking later in the day. When the nurse called to let me know when to come in - she said from prep until waking up is about two hours.
I know it is going to be painful but it will be nice to have a working knee and it will be nice to be a day person for a couple months!
On Tuesday I spoke at Cretin Derham Hall - a Catholic High School - about living with bipolar disorder. Every year they have "Justice Week" where they focus on social issues. This year is mental health. So they bring in speakers every day. I spoke to two classes of ninth graders. It is vastly different speaking students instead of adults because students are much more fidgety. However, the students ask great questions.
That is about it for now. I will blog post surgery. And will hopefully be better at it since I will be off for 8 weeks.
Oh Card Club was a bunch of fun! There were 6 of us and we played 500. I thought I had played it before but I hadn't. The team that I was on won though! I am glad I hosted it!
Catch ya on the flip side!
