Slice and Dice
In my 30 years of existence, I have never had a surgery (unless you count my circumcision, of course). Well today was the first. I had a granuloma growing on my big toe which was causing me a considerable amount of pain. So out it had to go. The granuloma of course, not the toe. So I went to the healthway clinic to get it cut off.
Naturally, I was so nervous because I have never been under the knife before. Thankfully Oz was there to accompany me and mock scare me so that I laugh and forget about the surgery. While waiting for the doctor to call me into the OR we decided to read the newspapers with different accents ranging from British, Indian, Chinese, Singaporean, Australian and Bisaya. Then I heard my name called.
So inside the OR I went. MY GOSH!!! GETTING THAT ANAESTHESIA SHOT HURT LIKE HELL!!! But since Oz already warned me that it was going to hurt I was kind of prepared for it. 45 minutes later, the doctor declared that the operation was over. Where a granuloma was before, is now a bunch of surgical sutures. I took a picture of it but it’s not a pretty sight so i just opted not to post it.
So as I went to buy the painkillers, I noticed that pain started to creep up my leg! The drugs they injected in my toe were already wearing off and the annoying drugstore had a long line. I was beginning to panic and be anxious because I so wanted to drink the pain killers to prevent a serious pain attack. Thankfully Oz read my mind and got me a bottle of mineral water so that I can down the medicine immediately. Thanks Oz for being such a thoughtful person. That’s why your such a kick-ass FA!
The great thing about the surgery is that finally that annoying granuloma is out. The sucky thing about it is that I wind up missing my SE8 dinner due to the pain. Arrghh. Well you win some and you lose some I guess.
Now I will end this blogging and try to get some sleep. Ciao guys!
