Dios ti agngina
Muchas gracias, xiexie ni, merci beaucoup mes amis.
Thank you (in different languages) for all your encouragements, text
messages, emails, gifts, visits, and most importantly, prayers.
I got out of De los Santos Medical Center in the afternoon of Maundy
Thursday. I had to wait for my doctor to give my medications and to
set our next meeting.
This Wednesday is my first day without any medication, meaning pain
reliever and antibiotic. I also feel more normal than the past days.
Other than a nerve still hurting from the dextrose inserted on my
left hand, a few moments when I feel cold and shake from sudden
weakness, and a lower abdomen that feels like it has been sunburned, I
am fine.
My doctor had to remove my left ovary. I must have already accepted
it even before the operation as I don't feel sad about it. My mother
had a harder time -- not knowing how to answer me -- when I asked her
which was removed, the cyst or the ovary. Prior to the operation, I
told her to stay by the operating room as she would need to speak for
me while I was happily out from relaxant and anesthesia. My doctor
warned me earlier that this would be a more difficult operation since
it's a recurrence. The gory details of my hospital stay could be a
subject in my blog :)
Before I went to the hospital, I attended a Palm Sunday mass in Bacood
and asked our parish priest to bless me. I also told the Lord, "I'll
see you here on Thursday." :)
So, I met with the Lord, last Thursday afternoon's mass, up on my feet :)
