Surgery and School News

Surgery:

I'm not going forward with the surgery right now. After meeting with the therapist and thinking about some of the questions she posed to me I don't really think this is the time to take this on. I need to deal with the issues on my plate first and not add to them.

I hadn't thought about exactly how much change and upheaval I've experienced in the last year. So many things contributing to a heaping load of stress. Starting a new career. Moving to a new state. Getting married. Going back to college while working. Losing my father. My grandfather being sick. Russell getting shipped to Iraq for 6 months. Mom all alone at home.

After thinking it over it just doesn't seem the time to have surgery and force another life altering event onto my plate.

School:

Four more days of class!!!! *squeeeee* Right now I'm holding onto a 90 average for my lecture tests and a 94 average on the labs. I need to get a high 90's score on last test in order to get an A (instead of an A-, which would just piss me off, lol.) Then I have a blissful month off of classes!!!! I'm going home on the 6th and then home again on the 1st of sept. to see Russell. Wheeeee...

  1. That's why they have you see a therapist...definitely a good step to determine if it's right for you, if it's the right time for you and if you are doing it for the right reasons!! I support you always girl...you have a good head on your shoulders!!

  3. I agree it's the right thing for you to do, love, but I also think it's a great idea to deal with some of the other stuff first. What's a few more months, one more year, when you really think about it?

  4. You're welcome hunny! When things calm down, you'll be in a much better place and ready for surgery! Then go revisit the option :)
