I found out today that I need to have another ankle surgery. I guess I look at this news two ways. The good news, I'll finally be out of pain...if it works. I have been in so much pain over the past 4 years that I am willing to try this again. The bad news, another 6 months out of life spent recovering. I hate thinking about all that I'll have to give for the first 3 months after surgery. Sitting down to take a shower, walking on crutches, not being able to drive. There are good parts as well. I get caught up on all my movies and tv. I spend time with Baxter. Friends will visiting me more often. I guess we will have to cancel our ceremony. But we can have it later.
I wish I could say that I'm optimistic that this one will work. I am already in that 5% of patients whose first 2 surgeries didn't work. Dr. B told me today that I have 80% chance that this will work. OOOOOOoooooo. I am just so frustrated. I almost want to forget the whole thing and live with it. Baxter also need surgery, so I need to take his needs in consideration as well. I'll update you later. Tim and I need to talk about it now.

whats wrong with baxter? poor baby
Yes, we must have details! I am really kind of sick of all the health drama at your place. You need to knock it off! Seriously, I hope you opt for the surgery. You are too young to feel so shitty.
