Things have been interesting here the last few days. We have a bit of a "Greys Anatomy" drama that is ongoing. One of these days I'm going to have to do a post just on that drama. Yesterday was not to eventful for me. One of my friends went down for surgery and the surgery went well. I found out today she isn't quite progressing like she should so I'm a bit worried about her. Another friend went to surgery today but she is doing great! Yesterday her mom pointed out that she has been saying things like me and using my mannerisms. I thought that was really funny. Then Thursday another one of my friends is going to surgery, at Children's.
Today I got a bit of happy news. I gained 2.2 pounds (1 kg)!!!!!!! Now to just keep gaining. I got to see Dr. Lenke today. He said everything is looking good. I got to see my x rays. I can see an improvement again! Although I did find out one person up here may be getting their Halo off during their first surgery since they've gotten so much correction. That was kind of discouraging to me because I've gotten more correction! But I know the doctor knows what he is doing so whatever. The Halo isn't really that bad. The worst part is not being able to sleep on my stomach which I won't be allowed to do for six months after my surgery! Thankfully, I'm getting used to sleeping on my back and side. Tonight we played "Minute to Win It". I did really good! I won a monopoly game, a blanket, a beanie baby, and a lady gaga CD (don't judge me, you didn't see the other choices)!! Finally I win some good stuff!
It's so weird everyone is starting to have their surgeries except me! By the time I go for my first surgery 4 out of 7 will be gone! Then if I come back in between my surgeries everyone will be gone!!! That's sad but happy. I have 22 days till my first surgery. It seems like it will be easier for me when I go for surgery having seen the rest of my friends go and come back. I'm just SO ready for this to be all over, for me to be home and not have to spend time in hospitals anymore for a good long while!!
