I haven’t updated in awhile so I thought I’d post another photo of the healing progress. June 5th was eight months post op from my Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH) and my incisions are looking really good. The main scar on my left (viewer right) is fading nicely and is much less red then it was….

This, That and The Other
Love & the Neurologist Yesterday (Monday the 14th) Love had his follow-up with the neurologist. Turns out the CT scan he had done a few weeks ago was perfectly normal. See, Love has this “whooshing” which kinda pulses in his right ear. Had it for years. But, when the whole vertigo-turned-out-to-be-migraines attacks started a year…
I am STILL Obamacare
And I’ve been featured on the official Obama For America tumblr page! (click for larger) The image of course, is from the entry, I am ObamaCare that I initially posted in October 2011, but went viral in January 2012. Now, with the 2nd anniversary of the Affordable Care Act (or “ACA”), the President is collecting…
Post Hysterectomy – Almost 6 Months
Today is day 161 or 5.75 months since my surgery. Next week will be 6 months since my hysterectomy. Crazy to think six months has gone by already! In an effort to continue to help those looking for information and healing timelines for a hysterectomy, here’s where I am at. At six months, you are…
16 Weeks
I had to go back and count because I hadn’t been keeping exact track lately but today is 16 weeks since my hysterectomy. That seems like such a long time ago. But in many ways, it’s very recent. I think I’ve finally reached a point where the aches and pains part of the healing are…
Weekend
I spent most of Friday just in a serious funk. Kept crying because of the damned collection letter. It’s like, why even bother trying to be responsible and pay everyone off if I’m just going to get screwed over and ruin my credit anyway? Everything is stacked against you as the debtor and they make…
Quality of Life
Yesterday, I shared the Assumptions people make about me based on their preconceived notions and health care expenses. Today, I’m expanding on that topic to Quality of Life. Besides “knowing” all the money I obviously waste on doing my nails, having a fancy new car, buying iPhones, etc. people also have other “helpful” suggestions about…
Assumptions
One of the worst parts of my “I am ObamaCare” images going viral is the asinine assumptions people make. Honestly, it’s just absurd the things people will say. I get some people don’t agree with the Affordable Heathcare Act and while I can’t fathom why anyone thinks our current system is working, it’s their right…
Saturday Rest
I got more than a little overwhelmed on Friday when the links, emails, mentions, tags and hits just flooded in. It was crazy. So Saturday, Love and I took a day completely off the interwebs. We took a drive over to Orlando, talked, walked around, window shopped, people watched, had a burger, watched some fireworks…
Post Thanksgiving Is Busy
Things are getting busy around here. First, it’s the weekend after Thanksgiving, so that means the holiday season is officially on. *chuckles* We’re trying to clean up the apartment to get ready for a tree. Problem is that we want to put it in a different area this year – in the “dining room” part…
Thankful
Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans and happy Thursday to everyone else. 😉 Today I’m thankful for many things and I want to share some of those things with you. I’m thankful for my health. Earlier this year that was in question and now I’m 7-weeks post-op and doing great. I’m thankful for my doctor…
I am ObamaCare
This is the ORIGIN of the “I am ObamaCare” picture. I’m the one who wrote it, photographed it and posted it on October 20, 2011. That’s me in the picture. This is my story. I never knew my simple “I am Obamacare” image would wind up all going viral on every corner of the web!…
